not a bad project, just remember in the future to have pics ready for when you start another thread....for me the red(hood) and silver(body) doesn't look right for some reason...maybe a black body with the red hood would look good imo...but it's your project...

Lightbulb Updates will be posted here!

UPDATE: 6/23 I have added red on the spoiler to even out the car thanks to advice from a moderator! Pics soon!
UPDATE: 6/24 I am considering adding a "multi" hoodscoop fabricated from a model 1970 Ford Mustang Rear Window ( I know it sounds weird.....) Look Closely:

Any thoughts? More pix on request(Including the mustang and a rough look of it on the Nissan)
UPDATE: 6/25 I have now removed the flame stickers on the hood as they seem too tacky!
UPDATE: 6/26 I am planning to paint it Gloss Black with Krylon Fusion Paint. It seems that it doesn't even need to sand or prime! Only if it is super glossy do even have to CONSIDER sanding or priming! Smoked lights too. I may still be adding the louvers as a hood scoop, it seems good.I will also be removing the red electrical tape hood .....No Prep FTW! I will probably also add a CL Lights set and the suspension set. Whick spring set up is best for moderate to heavy drifting and mild to moderate normal driving (Touring)?
(I might be gone this weekend but I'll still have time to check XMS)

Those are window louvers. It should look pretty good, more of a mild spoiler rather than a big in-your-face one. I think it'll look great, kinda low-profile you know?

Well... Red and Silver don't mix... decals are a big huge and ovarboardz... a multiscoop would be a bit funky... If you are going to really wanting to push this forward you should acaully paint the entire thing instead of using Red Electrians tape... Not To Rain on your parade or anything...

Whoops, misread lol. I thought he was using the louvers for the spoiler. The multi-tiered hood scoop might look pretty cool, I'm thinking it might look a bit loke something from the NFS series.

Regardless, try it! It's your xmods, and the only one you really need to please is yourself.

Thanks guys! Read my updates!
I trying to make the hood scoop like the one seen on a lot of the R34 Skylines. Here's how it should look:

Good? It will be on black or RED.........

Should I add some black? The hood scoop will be black on red. And I'll have a few black stripes here and there. Good?

are you not allowed to use paint thats why you use tape? if you are going to use tape get black electric tape because as your poll shows most of the people think red won't look good with silver. good luck though.

Exclamation Projekt Knockout is Blacked Out!!!

As you all have noticed the poll shows clearly that my red hood was stupid! Well now I have replaced the red hood with a matte black one AND I have made the rear spoiler black! You guys were right; it looks better now! I'm not gonna add the hood scoop tho. It's kinda tacky. The "projekt" is now mostly done I'm just gonna add or make a light kit and get the suspension & steering kit. I might add an iPod shuffle sound system tho....... Pics in the afternoon! (I'm charging my camera)

Thanks for the advice it looks awesome now!


Clickable Pics:
When clicked on scroll and click on the "Full Size" tab at the top left of the photo for best quality!
