hi,

this is my project, it was completley standars black r32 when i began molesting it, i did all the bodywork myself including hand crafting the sideskirts and rear bumper, still loads of engine work to be done to get to the desired 450bhp.......i hope you guys like it.

wish me luck.

Wow, very nice man, very nice. I have that same shift knob in my Laurel.

By the way, I fixed one of your image tags for ya so your pic would show up in the thread.

Nice work on those skirts, too.

Welcome to NICO and the Skyline forum.

Looks sharp, mate!

I'm seriously considering the LED tail lights. They're just kinda cool, though the stock bulbs are cool, too.

hi guys,

thanks for the comments lads, in regard to the led lights i got them because the car looked so new when i sprayed it so had to get fresh lights, there really cool at nightime,the original lights are also very cool.

and in reply to b110prodigy id love to see this veilside skyline, if its the one on thire website which is a gtr displaying their 'r32 gtr e4' bodykit, in my opinion my car is nothing like that one, if thats not it id love to see it.

thanks a million for the comments guys, ill post up pics in the next few weeks after i widen out the car...... gtr style..

Out of curiosity, where'd you find the LED tails?

I've looked around, but only seen R34 LED tails.

thanks corey, no wangan here in ireland, i wish.

my sideskirts died already when i was drifting a high kerb decided to hit me and rip off the sideskirts, bend 2 wishbones and the steering rack and snap a tie rod. considering the sideskirts were made up of bus bumpers and allsorts it wasnt a nice job. iv learned my lesson... i think
