Car History:

I bought the car June of '09 after looking for a loong time deciding what i wanted. It was either a san marino red coupe with a little more miles and no navi or this one, i loved the color and ive never seen another 7.5 gen coupe with my color so far. I'm proud of her.  :grin:  sorry again for the crappy pic lol but i still dont think its worth a full blown shoot yet i got high expectations haha

also decided on a new theme.. but its a secret!! for now..  and will for SURE be super awesome and custom and expensive lolol

Welcome Gene, bout time you made a profile man! I like the Infiniti rims :)

nice ride and welcome to the elite! i think you will find that we all prefer the less-ricey appearance so you should fit in well.

sup Gene, Welcome!

"bout time"...he's only posted 24 times...I went to 324!

Gene, welcome man nice ride...like the wheels, but what can you do about the gay infiniti symbol?

looks great

Welcome man, rides looks nice. Hurry and get those Teins SS on there.

Welcome to ECM.

yep.. my tax return is giving me 3,000$ (http://www.v6performance.net/forums/images/smilies/cheers.gif) so expect to see some big changes soon.



thanks lol...well, i may not have a mouth as big as yours   but i did join a few months before you. and the infiniti symbol is sort of going to be a pain in the ass to get off cause its similar to the honda "H" with a few tabs behind it holding it on.. (http://www.v6performance.net/forums/images/smilies/cuss.gif) but it can be done.. you'll be seeing those chrome h's on here soon enough

...slam it! Other than that ride looks good. I like the painted grille.

Btw, welcome dude I think your the first DMM coupe on here!

You got that right!  If I had a job I wouldn't post as much though...

small upd8 yall

keep us posted on the steering wheel :)

for sure im looking to get an indicator to show what gear im in ill post when i get that :D any1 know a good cluster to get one from

Nice steering wheel...do all the buttons work, did everything line up ok, or were serious mods needed?

well all of the buttons work except the bluetooth buttons and the up/down directional buttons because the tl has a better navi of course. i plan on hooking those buttons up to the autosoul unit though. and nope everything was almost a direct bolt on no cutting or anything just need the custom wire harness to adapt the ECU and thats it and the wheel may have needed a custom wire harness too

nuther small upd8!  :roll:

Looking good my dude! Nice job!

Nice, I see u got nicepeta's tl shifter mod. Do u still have ur stock shifter?

The steering wheel and the drop are looking great!

hey actually i do lol you interested in it? its got the leather on it.. i was actually looking to sell it

Yes I'd be interested. Hit me up with a price whenever u can. If it's reasonable I'll jump on it. I have cash ready

Car looks great! Can you take more pics of your shifter though?

thanks dude yea ill snap more later today.. eventually though im gonna get rid of the boot and install the chrome shift plate from the TL


dopeness then im gonna look around and see what price i can come up with..

Alrighty, I'm ready to buy when u are! I need it bc I'm parting out and going back to stock!

I forgot to mention I'll also need those two screws that hold it in. Lmk! Thanks.

bump for new lip

Been buying lots of parts lately but nothing new really installed to note. But, I just paid this sucker off! Let the real modding begin!

Sweet :)
