What started off as a one day paint job turned into a pretty big project.
We ended up:
- painting the entire bathroom
- stripping the old 5 layers of paint off of the vanity (the wood thing underneath the counter top) and then sanding it down
- painting the vanity
- getting a new granite countertop
- buying a new brushed aluminum faucet and matching fixtures
- removing the old mirror that took up the entire wall and replacing with a nice framed mirror
- Redoing the plumbing underneath the sink (it was all old and nasty)
It took us 2 weeks and we were barely able to finish it one hour before family came over for Elise’s birthday party.
This is how the bathroom looked when we moved in.
This is the bathroom after all of our hard work. New counter top, new sink, new knobs on the vanity, new faucet.
You can see our new mirror here
New shower curtain to match our new color theme of the room. Nadine framed some really great photos she's taken at various beaches.
I love the heck out of my G35 sedan, but I feel like it has an identity problem. It’s a luxury sport sedan. It’s got an awesome engine that has torque for days, agile handling, a limited slip differential but with all the refinements of a luxury car – heated leather seats, navigation, award-winning Bose sound system, a HDD for music, backup camera, etc. But what it’s missing is that it doesn’t LOOK like a luxury sport sedan.
I think Infiniti was trying to fix that with their 2010 update. I’m glad they tried to make it look more sporty but I’m torn – now it looks too much like a cheaper Maxima or Altima. I’m not sold on the new M37 design either.
I was looking at pictures of Joon Maeng’s RX8 for the 2010 season and noticed something funny on his rear bumper. Looked like some sort of wall bumper.
They put a spring/damper combo on it, too. I wonder how that will work? There’s only one way to find out! If anything, it will protect those taillights at least! Haha!
Edit: I just had an afterthought. They should just put a tire and some Baja style off-roading suspension on it. Then Joon can throw that car straight into the wall at 80mph and keep going.
I’ve heard this a million times before, but in case you didn’t know, Toyota is run by a bunch of Toyodas. How can I get on those dude’s wills? I’d be cool with being on the payroll too…

I looked at my blog today and realized I don’t have any pictures of my car on here. I really should redesign the look and feel of this site. Until then, here are some old car pics.
From one of my early day touge drifting sessions. I was so into getting my front tire into that rain gutter. My favorite part of this picture was the flowers in front of my bumper. Read one of my old posts about drifting at touge.
This is from Drift Day 9… LAS VEGAS! I drove my car there in the hellish heat with no a/c. We all remember that drive as one of the worst drives we ever made in our cars. Read my blog post about the vegas drift event.
Drift Day 11 at Irwindale. This was my favorite look for my car... standard front silvia bumper with oem side skirts, oem rear unders and wangan spoiler. I liked my stickers like that as well.
Another shot from Drift Day 11. My lovely concave face TE37s in the front :)
Shot my speedo at Streets of Willow. Drifting at 55mph was a big deal for me back then! Fuel gauge not working. Ghetto!
