As I mentioned earlier, my rented Altima has CA plates. I am doing my best here in Minnesota to reinforce their stereotypes of California drivers.

so last night i wet sanded my rc transmitter from 15-20yrs ago and polished it up to rid all the scratches and scuffs it had.
looks pretty much brand new now.

it was one of the best transmitters of its time so wanted to keep it looking nice.

15yrs ago i didnt have the tools nor know the techniques to clean it up so nice.

i started with #800, then #1500, then #2000 (wetsand for all 3), and used ScratchX2.0 on a short weave MF towel. trick is to polish it but not to a super shiny polish cause then it will look too different from the rest of the textured plastic.

for the lcd minor blemish on one side of the screen, i used scratchx2.0 and a q-tip.

100% agree. The s2000 doesn't need some aftermarket colour. I'm okay with a 10000000000000000000% less aggerssive body kit. KISS is my moto.

inception bro... i'm in your dream that you're in my dream but really i was in the dream of the dream but not your dream which happened to coincide with his dream and then finally... i woke up realizing it was just another dream.

On a more serious note... I want the 2015 nismo front fascia for my car... makes me so hot.

yah, like my Z which is 120% stock

, i just like keeping things super simple.

i donno about the 2015 nismo facia. im not a fan... but it does look better with that red thing painted glossy black.

in your case since you already have the drl wiring, should be pnp

(youll still need the shroud and fender liner bits probably)
