OK, I am relatively new to the X forum, just want to start a thread of my own. I have had the X for years but just recently got the mod bug for it after finding this site while changing the infamous #6 plug and looking for advise. Thanks for all the advice I have got so far, and I am sure there will be much more needed from you all in the months to come.

Setup: 01 2WD 3.3L Xterra Alpine Green 152,000 miles, Air box mod, Full HID conversion, Painted trim, stock rims on BFG radial long trail 265/70/15

So far this is where I am at. I first did the DIY Air Box Mod with K&N filter, then got the Bi-xenon HID headlight conversion. I liked it so much I got the HID conversion kit for the foglights also. Got your help on getting my foglights to come on without the headlights. This weekend I took the grille, front bumper, and air dam off and sprayed it with Duplicolor Bed Liner. Made it look like it was brand new!!! So I decided to take all the other trim off and that is where I am at right now. Going to get more Bed Liner spray to paint the rest of the trim pieces when I get off work. Hopefully I will atleast get them painted today, and can put them back on tomorrow.

Within the next couple months I am looking at putting some new rims and tires on it. I am enjoying the mod bug so far, not planning on doing anything major, just want it to stand out among the crowd. I will post pics up of the X tonight when I get home without the trim pieces. I meant to get pics of it before I disassembled it all so you would get an idea how bad they were faded. Anyway, just let me know what you think so far...

The long awaited photos...

Look's good. I am getting ready to paint my trim, grill and bumpers. I am going to go with the bedliner paint you used.

I chose it over the herc roller method...I am ALOT better at spray painting so that is why I chose it...plus it can get in the tight spots alot better

I didn't get a chance to paint anything yesterday because of the rainy weather, it has cleared up a little bit so hopefully today I can get it finished up and looking good!!! I still haven't decided if I am going to do a strip along the bottom of the body or not yet...I'm not an offroader so I really don't need it...But I kinda like the way it looks...who knows
