I got the TK blue turtle to go with my 'blue balls' from trying to take off that OEM shift knob.

Threw on new wheels and tires the other day. The pic is the front wheels on 18x9.5 15.

Also has new tpms.. does the dealer charge for a tpms set? does the old/last tpms still work should i do a swipswap with the sets?

I must see it in person! I have the green.

Btw get some blue loctite to loc it in place facing forward. I think I may have used too much. :/

The initial amount was too little and didn't stick overnight lol

You'll have to have somebody reprogram them. Doesn't have to be the dealer. Tire shops should have one. My Discount Tire has reprogrammed mine in the past.

You will see it in person all right, since you offered your expertise to help remove the OEM shift knob. You will hold the shifter and I will rotate my Z around it. Loctite???

Fook that!!! I am using bubble gum to keep it facing forward. It works on most of our fighter jets and naval ships plus it smells great and will allow me to remove the TK shift knob if I decide to do so in the future.

Blue loctite at the tip. Worked wonders. If I have to take it off... a lil heat on it and mf wrap with a strap wrench lol. Or a ruined hebi bebi Oh well. Won't be coming off anytime soon

I will post pic of whole car after I wash it.

Here is the full image with the nismo painted in the rims.

God-Speed · 04-17-2017, 06:50 PM

I'm with Fren on this one. Looks good, nice job. Remember "Less is More!!"

Ditto. Good thing I don't have any plans of taking it off lol

Picked up the LED bracket from CarbonSignal Automotive for my 2015+ Nismo bumper. It'll be painted black and should have a nice contrast with the PWZ.

Curtis_J · 04-18-2017, 01:48 PM

Just picked it up from the tint shop. Excuse the lazy effort in taking the pic. 40% all around, which is as far as I wanted to try my luck with the local police.

Monday night I installed new EVO-R side view mirrors. I am loving the wide angle and smaller forward obstruction aspects of them, which are the reasons I bought them. Fit and finish definitely leave something to be desired (some might say on par for EVO-R). But coming in at nearly $400 in CF, my opinion is they are significantly overpriced. I found a pair opened but unused from a local G owner who was hoping they would fit his car.

The second pic is what they looked like less than 24 hours later after a drive to Houston and back through some nasty weather
