My NX is all fixed up!

Hey gang. Been a long long time since I posted pictures. Reason being I had lots of problems with my car that cropped up last summer like bad brakes, bald tires, headlight failure, and I hit a deer too. Well, I got a new bumper put on my car, new tires, brakes, rotors, headlights, brake lights, a full tune up, radiator, new valve cover, all kinds of crazy stuff. Spent tons of cash and just recently, finally got my car painted. Here are some pictures for you guys to enjoy, and if you wish, comment on. I recently became a forum supporter again...so I am posting the pictures I have in my gallery. You can click the thumbnail and get a bigger pic.

This is when I hit the deer. The damage doesn't look bad, but it broke my headlights (both of them, presumably), ruined my bumper, pushed in my radiator support, and bent my hood.





So I put a new bumper and headlights on...taking a break here and there...







Then I got my car painted! I paid about 700 dollars for the job, and they fixed the dents all around the car, including a major dent on the rear bumper, and removed some rust I had on my left rear quarter panel. For the money I paid, they did an exceptional job. They did hit my AC condensor and my muffler though but I don't care, for everything that was fixed without me even asking, I can deal with that. Will fix eventually anyway.





















Hope you guys like.

Looks like it just came off the showroom. Great work. Where did you have the work done? I need something like that done to my classic.

Thank you. I mean, it was bad before I took it in. The clearcoat had completely peeled off the spoiler, there was a peice of rust about as big as a 50 cent peice starting to bubble up on my left rear wheel well lip, and there was the damage to the rear bumper...not to mention it had a BLACK hood and a cream bumper, hah! I had it done at this place called "Action Auto Painting" in Roanoke, VA. It was awesome when i pulled into the lot and saw it sitting there, gleaming in the sunlight. It's no high-qual job or whatever, I didn't spend thousands on it, but it looks good and the work is warranted for 4 years.

If you can find a place to get it wet-sanded for the cheap, it will really come alive.

I'm also glad you didn't attach the front plate. Dumb ole VA laws.
