what up Eric. the lights dont really point straight. a little on the sides but not too bad. i didn't want to shave a lot frm my bumper. i just made enough on top and bottom and kind of pushed the light thru and added some fiberglass in the rear.

007: the kit i have is made with fiberglass and called "skipper design" which i got from japan long time ago. costs me $1200.00 fr front/rear/sides; no wing included. h'ever, didn't like the sides so i got rid of them and replaced them with EREBUNI sides and added EREBUNI rear wing. i just got my car repainted recently.

Thanks for the info on the kit... i have been debating on getting one for quite awhile. Maintenance issues generally take up my GS300 petty cash fund plus the car is getting older now so i'm not sure i will make many more costly add-ons. But the kits especially yours make the car look so much better!!!

Oh well.... Decisions, Decisions!!

alexampro:

yeah, we just get bored sometimes and think what we can do to our cars so that we dont waste so much time during any day.
i mean, let's say on a saturday, if ur not doing anything at all, might as well work on the car.

there would be more projects for me that are coming up. my next project wud be painting my calipers "bronze".. or somewhat gold. i saw a infiniti g35 coupe parked nxt to me a while back and saw the calipers painted gold or similar and it wz pretty nice. so, i thought maybe i can try painting mine the same.

ive got the "jdm" headlights and pllning to transfer my E39 projectors on them. that project, not sure when i will hv time to do it but i will post some pics.

i ordered the DO-LUCK front grille for $250. have you guys seen this? it's pretty nice but it wont arrive until middle of MARCH.


it's ashamed alexampro that ur not located in southern calif so you can join our meet. but, of course, we will posts some pics for everyone to see.!!
