Smooth Red's Build Thread

Finally got around to painting the headlight housings. Kind of upset I didn't do this earlier as it was extremely easy and gratifying.

Didn't realize you were such a good photographer. We have to get the Nismo's together one day for a shoot. My brother is opening a 10k sq ft. motorsports and bodywork place by west town mall. It's in the buildout phase for offices and showroom area but the rest of the building is still industrial looking. Would be a good location to do something like that. Lighting isn't the best though.

Couple of questions:
1. On the Z1 CAI, was there a lot of modification that needed to be done on the Nismo model? I would like to go that route if I don't have to cut a bunch of openings.

2. The headlight housings look great. Was there a particular DIY you referenced? There seems to be a lot of different ones. Not sure I have the guts to do this but it looks so good I'll give it a shot.

Thanks
