andys 03 atomic x

I bought my xterra with 110,000 in October of 2013. It is a atomic orange non supercharged auto_On the way home i bragged to my father about how rare the atomic orange is. Well driving home we stopped for a bite to eat and when we pulled in this was sitting in the parking lot.

My xterra shortly after buying her.

I knew i wanted to lift her but was hesitant at first. To start off slow i did the norm pml.

Just the pml wasn't doing it for me so a few months later I pieced together a diy body lift and threw it on. At the same time I found a deal for some beat 33x12.5x15 dun lop mudrovers for 150 and threw them on a set of fronty rims i got for 60 bucks. Also ditched the brush guard.

Took her out for the first time and did a quik flex test with the sway bar still on.

Funds dried up until recently I was able to give her some new shoes.

Welcome, but I hate you for the Atomic Orange!!! I searched far and wide for a 4wd AO and didn't find one until last year. I bought my X 3.5 years ago. So yes, they really are rare.

Did a mod that I haven't seen anyone else do. Instead of completely removing the plastic pieces that go behind the front wheel wells I trimmed them down. I could have cleaned up the edges a little better.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that kept the fender plastic. I think it looks much better with it. I cut mine all the way back to the tub along with the pinch seam that was right there. Molded the fender liner back in and you can't even tell it's been cut. Cept it doesn't rub.
