This. Conforming is flattering but posing.

Big Zee · 06-11-2013, 10:19 PM

ummmm......
day I got it

few years later

now

I fail to see how it isn't a factory 2 tone. yes it has Aero on, but it is all painted back to factory colors except the black trim, it was updated to fresh black paint but with some blue pearl in it.

your welcome for the pics, it is what you asked for. and it is a real 2 tone coupe. number 11509 off the line

SupaDoopa · 06-11-2013, 10:25 PM

Because it has aero means it's not a true two-tone? I fail to see where your logic is. I plan on going aero on my two tone as well.

206sx · 06-11-2013, 11:21 PM

damn, the silver blue two-tones looks nice

SupaDoopa · 06-11-2013, 11:42 PM

@Big Zee - Can you get a better picture of the front where the black stripping ends? That's the one dilemma I think I'm going to have if I go aero on a two tone. I'm curious how you made it work.

Big Zee · 06-12-2013, 10:54 AM

I can get you a picture later today SupaDoopa.

what I did though, was cut the tape on a rough 45* angle and ended it just after the part of the bumper where it allows for the stripe.
If I had to do it again, I think I would do the whole bumper instead of the sides.

I used 3/4 black stripe that I got from Roundex ( automotive paint supply here in canada. ) Supposed to be OEM grade.
when you put it on though, make sure you don't wax the car first haha, I got excited and did my sanding/polishing/waxing first, then had to use wax remover to get the tape to bond then do my waxing all over again.

KiLLeR2001 · 06-12-2013, 11:00 AM

That bumper is not doing it for me. Pignose or Silvia.

ILoveJDM · 06-12-2013, 11:12 AM

car looks amazing.

He has a real Silvia so the VINs are like S13-XXXXXX. Increment by one. USDM VINs are a little bit different but apply the same way. Just look at the last six digits of your VIN#. The VINs reset for '91 models, so its possible to have a '91 with a low six digit value.

206sx · 06-17-2013, 11:40 AM

hmmm # 021440

KiLLeR2001 · 06-17-2013, 12:01 PM

Haha your car is just like mine. Base model M/T. Except mine was produced in 09/88 and yours in 03/89.

206sx · 06-17-2013, 12:05 PM

it would be nice to have power windows

KiLLeR2001 · 06-17-2013, 12:07 PM

Yeah that's why I did this...

Spot on! only info I didn't have was production date. Thanks!

On one hand I wish it had the original motor, but then again, who wants to drive an automatic CA?

Oh, and no sun roof

It's definitely the car you are thinking of. I picked it up 5 years ago from a guy named Josh from Lethbridge. Original for sale thread F/S nissan silvia.
