My kouki taking on a new Dodge Viper red paint job and full exterior JDM conversion. Not completely done but days away from being completed.

Before:

Oh no!! (During...)
Image

More....
Image

Yes, more...
Image

Bye bye my Kouki, you look so retro rocking Z31 wheels.
Image

Time to get dressed!
Image

You look red in the face!
Image

Welcome to Japan!
Image

Ahh, that's better!
Image

HID's all around! Even better still!
Image

Let's take you out in the sunshine.
Image

Time to shine!
Image

Let's see that rear.

These are the latest photos and ones of the finished product coming soon! JDM spoiler will be added soon, it is being prepped and painted.

***What do you guys do about mounting a rear licence plate on the JDM bumper??***

looks clean! you need a jdm spoiler (sell you my knock off one 100+shipping) and please get oem lights on it :chuckle:

and here is what i think about your jdm rear bumper and license plate deal

this took me several hours and was my first time doing fiberglass (learned from youtube) but it worked killer and is very strong.

Motoman399, that is a great idea and I see it has perfect results with the fiberglass job. The bad thing is, the car is already painted. I really aprreciate you sharing your idea! My headlights are projectors both high and low with angel eyes and HID's. I love them! You can buy my OEM's if you want them. I already have a JDM Kouki wing and it hasn't been installed yet.

S14Kouki10, I have KTS coilovers from SPL parts and hopefully I won't be scraping anytime soon. I think I'd cry! lol

if you like them then great! just not my thing lol. i also have hid's for the lows and fogs. i am getting a set for the highs. you can see my headlights a page or two back. they are ballin lol

oh and thanks it took me a LONG time to make that bumper like that. i hate how there is holes on either side of it with the usdm license plate.

They feel just fine, but if I had it to do all over again, I would have went with something else. They just aren't very user friendly for basic needs. At least I don't find them to be. I'd probably go with the Stance ones if I were you.

yeah once in a while off a really steep driveway but not often. My car is pretty low the lip is like 3.5"-4" off the ground so I just take the entire driveway and angle that bitcth

if you're scraping a oem lip on stock ride height you're driving it wrong lol (or the driveway is just steep as a mofo)

Yeah like this engineering marvel I have to drive through everyday. I wish I could meet the dumbass who designed this thing so that I could give him five across the eyes.
