Even though they are smoked they still give off the red light (brakes), amber light (turn signals), and white lights (reverse). They just aren't as bright anymore.

Hey everyone! I am finally stoked to say that rebuilding of the front end of my car after crashing into my x gf is now complete! The story was that she was driving and a Mercedes slammed their breaks, then she slammed hers, and i was changing a song on my iphone, i looked up slammed my breaks and slid right into her on PCH. My CF hood was cracked and split a little bit, all headlight brackets were snapped, the front bumper was cracked and brackets to fenders snapped, versaspeed grill warped, and her car... some scratches and i popped her back bumper back in.... FML. Well the day has finally come and i finally got my versa all fixed and up and running again! Ive been talking about it for a while and its finally done. I hope everyone enjoys the photos!!!

I replaced the parts that needed replacing and also bought some goodies for the versa!

Things I did to the Versa:

New Sport bumper
Tenzo Type M wheels 17x7
Halo Projector Headlights
DDM Tuning 6000k HID Kit
NTD Throttle Controller
Autopia Fog Lamps
HALO JDM Yellow Fog Lights
Versaspeed Grill
12" Kicker CVR
Pioneer DEH-P3100UB Head Unit


The day of the accident



Parts in the mail!!!

DDM HID kit

Slim Ballasts

Halo JDM Yellow Fogs

Projector Headlights

out with the old sub 150watt rms

In with the new sub 400watt rms

NTD Throttle Controller

Autopia Fog lamps

Pioneer Head Unit

Sport Bumper

Tenzo Type M wheels



Puttn it all together!

Theo helpn out taking off the front bumper, and about to put in projector headlights


they look pretty sick on a black car

Ballasts


Putting my versas new shoes on (ive wanted these rims for 2 years and i finally have them!)

someone hit me on christmas day.... thats a different story




This is wat the versa looks like so far!

Puttn the sport bumper on now!


put the yellow jdm lights into the lamps

wiring for fog lamps

gonna install the head unit

NTD Throttle Controller installed!

Pioneer head unit installed!

this was a complete bitch to do but we got the bumper on, wired the fogs, and installed the versaspeed grill


The End Results!!!


night shot


in the process of getting fog light finishers because mine are cut up really bad ha. And the carbon fiber hood is being debated on whether it can be repaired or not. just FYI for everyone. Other parts debating on, hideaway license plate, rotora rotors or light weight NST Crank Pulley but all depends on the funds (got tickets to pay, parking). gonna buy the DC exhaust when it comes out! stoked!!!

I hope everyone enjoyed looking at this!!! This took a lot of time and effort, I want to thank Bob at Versaspeed for helping me out getting all the parts and goodies for the versa. and Theo (superskunk) for the long hours in his backyard putting the versa back together, and i mean lonnggggg hours..... thank god the ice cream truck came around or this would semi rebuild would still be going on haha. Big sticks and cheesy flaming hot cheetos ftw! And id like to thank Colby (villageidiot) for helpin me out in the tire dept for the Tenzo wheels.
