Not really. That's just the service loaner while my car gets some facial scars removed. Hopefully I'll have it back by the end of the week.

Tested out the GoPro suction mount on the roof of the car and went out last night for a cruise. Nothing fancy in the editing, just sped up roughly 4x:

Scuffs, lol!

New front bumper, left fender, and fender liner. Left front wheel repaired or replaced. Left front tire replaced. Left hood and door edges repainted. Left headlight buffed and a four wheel alignment. That was just from the estimate.

No clearbra...

This was a Nissan shop. Hopefully they know more about body work than they did my car. The manager couldn't tell that it had the sport package. He didn't know that Rays is Japanese and when I told him my offset was +22 he gave me a strange look and asked, "would they know what that meant."

I took pictures of all my visible mods and gauge cluster and set up a semi-valet mode in Uprev. Can't go over 50 or 5000 RPM.

Edit, just got the call, new wheel it is! I wish them the best in finding a TE37.

I discovered the joys of gps tracking to log acceleration data.

Thanks to Corner3Garage, I have springs, spacers and camber arms on the way. Also working on picking up a NISMO bumper conversion kit this weekend from a forum member.
