I bought my Versa brand new in May 2011 with 11 miles on it. I immediately tinted the windows, bought Enkei Imola rims, and installed a sick Alpine amp/speaker/head-unit/sub stereo. Here's the before and after photos. Nice to meet you guys. What do you think?

1.6 manual. Fortunately I do have AC and ABS. I didn't really want white but 1.6 sedan's were hard to find around here.

I'd really like to get the door handles, mirrors and front end pieces all painted white. I think it looks pretty good now. I don't want to go too overboard in general since it's still under warranty. Lowering would be cool, but once again, not while it's under warranty.

I had it painted at a body shop for about $125. I figured if I did it while the car was brand new it'd probably match perfectly, and it does. Honestly I'm not a fan of all the black plastic all over. I believe it makes the car look cheap (which the car was). But since the windows and rims are black I think it's not quite so bad. The change I've made from stock to now is quite dramatic and I'm always getting compliments. Most people don't believe that the car was $11,000 brand new. The three months after purchasing it I got tints, rims, and stereo which were another $2700 probably. I only owe $6000 and it's got 22,000 miles on it so all in all, I think I have a nice looking, reliable car for the near future. I've driven it to Branson MO, Wisconsin Dells WI, Daytona FL, and Key West FL and my family doesn't complain about anything. Reasonably smooth ride and 33.5 mpg on the highway with a full car. Sounds good to me.

Josh, I just looked at all the pics of your car and it looks great lowered. What is the part number on those shocks? Looks great man. We've got a similar look going with the tints and the black door handles lol.

I meant springs.. I was spacing out.

What did the labor cost?

Awesome. That's the best way to do it.
