2008 Xanavi Nismo GT-R (R35) - Custom
Hey there people! i myself amongst any other users on AF, is a car enthusiast, no. More like a Super Duper Car Nerd! LOL SDCN....anyway all jokes aside, what i have here is a 2008 Xanavi Nismo GT-R (R35). I bought this kit one day at my local model and hobbie shop, and saw that the owner himself took the same kit and was currently at that time building a custom "Prototype" style car. So that inspired me and got me highly interested in customizing everything myself.
Basically, as we all know the original Xanavi Nismo GTRs are always red, that goes for the Motul ones too. With black rims, two-tone body paint with vynal. So what I've done here is full custom paint job, redid sponsor stickers, cut and trimmed decals for custom fit, special paint cocktail for rims, and a whole lot more. SPECS: -Gunmetal Grey Body -Custom golden broze rims -Tinted windows -Custom Sponsor decal layout -Custom interior paint jobs and Steering wheel layout -Modified hood scoops, Areo parts, mirrors, and more. -Headlight colours and more... ![]() *By the way, all photos are original taken photos.

Nicely done! The color scheme looks like it could have been the real car!

hate to say it, but i think your custom looks better than the actual car!!!!! maybe Nissan should learn a few colour schemes from you. Good work.

Looks great. I also think this looks better than the actual car colours. Is it just me or is your front right headlight fogged up?

Re: 2008 Xanavi Nismo GT-R (R35) - Custom
AH! damn thanks guys! yeah even though red is my favorite colour but, i like the gun metal stealth look. soon i'm gonna start building either a Top Secret S15, Nismo 350Z, or a Toyota Supra. So either one of those, but haven't really decided on which one to buy yet?
if you have any suggestions or favours let me know, drop a note or message me. Thanks!

Very cool looking model.
I too like your design better than the real deal. I love the blue on the lights, and the pic that is a soft blue color where I can see the red logos with great contrast. Awesome inspiring model.
