"Too much rice?" is a rhetorical question. Any rice is too much rice.

I don't like:

1) The tails. Pure rice.

2) NRA emblem? WTF? Don't like advertising on vehicles, especially right where it should say Nissan. I carry guns, please steal them? I carry guns, please any LEO's approach the car with weapons drawn? What message are you putting out there with your NRA emblem?

3) Is there a Nissan emblem hanging from the drivers side lower rear bumper? Why?

4) NISMO on the brake light.

5) Horrid hood-scoop.

6) Piss yellow fogs.

7) Holes in bumper.

8) Silly unnecessary front Nismo plate.

And while you are at it.....

9) Polish up those Tsurus back to clear from dingy, yellowed, ugliness.

Those are the first nine (9) things I would immediately change.

Sorry, but



I agree with Shawn. That thing has so much rice you can feed China with it. Twice.

In all se-riousness (see what I did there), there's too much going on. And I've never been a fan of white taillamps. When I'm gonna make them myself, I'm gonna make them at least black smoke.

I would buy:
-my untouched OEM '93 - '94 Nissan Front bumper w/new fogs and 626 lip
-my OEM inner tail lights
-stock OEM outer tail lights from any junkyard in your area

I like:
Crafty Honda accord rear lip mod around mudflaps. I'd mold them in to make them look like one piece and have them painted when you paint the car. I don't know what kind of motor is in the car but I think that hood scoop for our FWD engine setups is serving no purpose. Perhaps a money shot?

I'd remove:
Nismo sticker on third brake light
Hood for OEM replacement pending money shot
Front license plate

Simplicity for a classic B13 is best. Leave this look for the Honda guys that don't know how to tastefully modify the look of a car properly.

Maybe if you incoporated some red into the clear tails that might be better, but it's been done before...Treydee I believe did it on his old B13 below...

Nice use of a 280zx turbo hood vent, to bad any functionality it had was killed by improper placement.. i've thought of using one of those as well, but i'd have put it somewhere useful.

the lips look ok.

everything else make me feel bad for that poor sentra... shame on you!

Anyone who puts an NRA sticker on the back of their car is bloody insane. It will not have the effect of "warning off" potential car-jackers, but it will get the attention of any police officers behind you and if they find a reason to pull you over, don't be suprised if they call for backup and have a guy on your passenger side with his gun drawn pointed at the ground.

Not to mention, it makes a car that is already easy to break into, a better target since you may have guns still in the car since you like them so much!

As far as how the car looks, it is not my cup of tea but it is your car. Do whatever the hell ya want to it.

Tint the rear lights black or red and it'd look better. Don't mine the yellow Fogs or lips. Hood vent has got to go.
