Just a little teaser. Headlights courtesy of Sean83 on these boards, Audi A4 Projector Retrofits, CAN'T WAIT. Throttle Body Spacer and Intake Manifold Spacer awaiting nice weather also.

Just a note, about a month ago, (2 days before my birthday), I got into my first accident. Thankfully the damage isn't so significant, but I am riding with 3/4 of a bumper on right now lol. Also managed to catch a flat tire a week later, so now I'm riding ghetto style with 2 steelies in the front and my 2 17' OEMs in the rear. February was a bad month for the car.

Pics next week of a refreshened and painted (still oem front bumper because I prefer a lip than a body kit). Headlights on and who knows what else.

Other plans for this spring is Max Tuning Valvebody upgrade, Stillen or Nismo lip and maybe wheels.

For reference here's a shot of her glory nice day weather shot

Oh i know the feeling man. The accident killllled the modding fund. I wanted to get a Greddy Emanage Ultimate and get it tuned for NA and Nitrous runs. Sure i know its only a 2.5, but if i wanted a truly fast car, it wouldnt be an altima. So im just having fun seeing what i can do with the 2.5. It is my first car and just proud to see the leaps and bounds ive had with her over the years now (4 years of driving her, and almost 5 years of ownership).

yea like 5-7, and i got both for around 120 or so. Cheap HP and it makes the engine bay look a little nicer haha.

I bought the headlights from Sean83 for 570 picked up. It looks awesome, and I cannot wait to put them on within the next few days.
