and a big update on the s13.32 is very close. I have been working feverishly this week putting on new goodies and making her look good. Thanks to Edward at Raceonusa.com for gettin me hooked up with a URAS type front bumper and Works 9 type sides and rear. Not sure if my judgement on the sides and rear was good, think the kit could flow better. Also added som flashy puddle lights, but since it was a day shot, can't see them... obviously

Heres the lot of 'em...

to appease the NCFPP, and to make sure people's expectations are in check... (krash, hahahaha) i'll let you in on whats been done..

A new front bumper with the addition of sides and rear and some cool little ricer lights on the bottom are on the car, and starting a project for a one off spoiler with a friend of mine. I might trade my skirts to someone local though, im not sure if I like how they flow w/ the front bumper, we'll see

and yes dex, i will get you pics tomorrow

yes, admittedly, I do need paint. How ever, I still have body mods planned for the car (rear wdie body, r32 tail conversion, shave and smoothen some stuff) so paint will come after all of that. Next I am focusing on getting some truely legit wheels. Thanks for all the feed back guys!

Definitely you need rear over fenders. Front looks too big. How tall are you? Vert looks low right next to you.

Agreed... it looks wide in the front and narrow in the rear. Some over-fenders on the back would really look great.

Here's my only complaint (and don't take this as an insult.. the car is HOT)... Is there any way you can tweak the headlight fitment a bit?

Can you drop a couple washers in as spacer on the bottom of the outside of the lights. Clearly it's difficult to match up the hood and bumper and lights because they didn't all come together. But if you could just lean those headlights a little more angled down toward the center, that would make for a more uniform gap. As it sits, there is a bigger gap on the top outside and a bigger gap on the bottom inside. So if you could raise the outside a bit and lower the inside a bit, that gap would even out better.

Here's a poor edit of what i'm talking about.

Don't worry about the rear fenders. They are sitting in the garage waiting for me to gather a bit more courage one week and start at it.

Eikon - Don't worry about the constructive criticism, it's better than the hate threads I have seen on certain "elitist" boards out there. I personally think the issue with the head lights is more in hood and corner lights than actual headlight. Either way, it will get delt with once its dropped off for tail light install, body work and paint.

I would leave the 240 rear end but the rear wide fenders is a good idea
