Cool Custom FX
« on: July 28, 2010, 05:07:59 PM »

Looks to be a 2004/06 model with custom colors, grille etc.

I like it, but I'd get rid of the stickers and the nismo stuff, unless you're running a nismo branded turbo or suspension.  And unless you've run it at the Mille Miglia rally.

It's unique - but I'm not digging any of it.  I really don't like the black top but that may be because there's a cab line here called "Black Top Cabs" with a similar look.  I'm pretty sure there isn't much "Nismo" on the vehicle other thatn the stickers.  Perhaps he has a Nismo oil cap  And if you're going to lower the FX, get wheels with a different offset or buy wheel spacers.  Looks a bit muffinny.

Pin latches on the hood?  That look is great on cars manufactured on a different continent and different decade.

What is the point of that? To keep that raging motor contained?

Well, unless they removed the stock latch assembly to make room for quad turbos and intercoolers (since there's no lack of room in the FX, you could fit a v12 in there easily (sigh)...it's just another rice touch.  LOL

I still like the color scheme and the darker stock wheels.

I was wondering about the wheels.  Are they painted or are they the champagne color from 03?  I can't say that I like them either way but I was curious.

Maybe the FX inspired the GTR rim design ;-)
