My Sentra vs My brother's NX

Before:



After:





Black Pearl NX w/ shaved door handle

 

kioh

Hey it looks like you got that grille evened out on the SE. Nice one-two punch.

b13pnoysentra

Yeah, me and my dad had to fix it ourselves. That body shop guy was kinda clueless in some areas so we had to rely on our own lol. I mean, in the NX, he practically bent the handle for the passenger side t-tops.

hey that NX rear windshield wiper is on wrong, if you turn it on, it's going to run into the deck lid. it's suppose to be positioned vertically, not horizontally.

blkbird

man, houses in CA sure are different!!! you see more of your neighbor's 3 garage, but not much for the front!!! I guess cars lives better than folks overthere.

Tell you bro to slap a 626 lip on the NX.

They're both 1.6s. Who wants to see GA16DEs on here anyway? But yeah, I'll post them later.

Well, body work to shave the door and fix the big dent on the passenger fender + primer (even inside door jams and trunk area except engine bay) all costed 500 bucks at some Mexican dude's shop. Took it to Maaco w/ their presidential 2 coat coupon, and it added up to 620 I think. My bro said the mexican's primer was no good so extra was charged for sanding, and extra was also charged for clear coat. Sad thing is, water stains on the black from a sprinkler encounter are visible under the garage light.

Well, that door handle used to be busted due to the previous owner claiming somebody tried to break in the car, so he had it shaved during the bodywork instead. Plus how can we open the door w/out the driver's side handle there? LOL, that would be funny to see my bro always enter through the hatchback.

Yeah, the rear...I know, but those ebay springs claimed 2" drop all around. Plus the front tires keep rubbing on something and the wheel gets stuck sometimes and veers when turning sharply, like in a U-turn. So I think until we get new springs, it'll stay like this for a while. OR, I can tell him to put 195/60/R14 tires in the back.

I'ma check on that dude. Maybe it was just turned on and turned off at that position?? It didn't use to be like that..

EDIT:: Okay, the shop did mess with it! Thanks for noticing oliver. It's fixed and mounted vertically now.

Yeah, I definitely want a 626 lip on it. But about the houses, it may looked cramp due to the garages being all stretched up and whatnot, but there's enough living space there for comfort, well at least on our part.

Thanks for all the comments guys. Keep more suggestions coming!

kioh

Dude you need a new shop! J/K BTW, no offence to your bro but your SE owns his NX.

Sentrixx

Honestly... if it was going be done anyways, should have done both. That's pretty half ass. And there are door poppers that are made for this.

2dr_sentra

My friend had a b14 with shaved handles and had door poppers also.

swiss

Both look nice.

b13pnoysentra

Thanks man. His NX is slower too, I don't know why. I know we both have 1.6s, but mine feels like it has 10 more whp and torque than his car. Is it the weight of the NX, or maybe it's the clutch?
