Long story short my car got hit a few weeks ago while I was out eating with friends...came back and the front fender looked the way it is...rear fender got a tap too...how the *%&**%&**%&**%&*...IDK.
But anyways...
Heres the plan...
30mm over rear overfenders....mostly because i dont feel like fixing the rear dent,,,
R33 GTR front bumper
JDM Fiberglass Vented Fenders...
JDM Silvia Rear Valences as seen here...
Kouki Black LED taillights
Dark Midnight Blue paint job...
White 5Zigen FNO1RC's
Progress....Day 1
I am doing all the work myself.
Day 2
Progress Day 3
Allllmost there...
Thank god I dont have to sand the hood/front bumper/or fenders...
The black spots are because the car was still wet from power washing all the dust off...A LOT of dust haha
New Skirts i picked up from a buddy.
Not the ones i had planned on going with, but he convinced me it'd look better. My lines will flow better with these since my front bumper will be so low, the other skirts wud have been too high.
Day 4 of work
Finished sanding the car.
Started priming.
Front bumper looks stupid as *%&**%&**%&**%&* without it bolted on, or without the wider fenders and wheels.
Sideskirts look good I think.
New decal *%&**%&**%&**%&* u if u dont like it
Day 5...
Still needs to be quide coated and wet sanded along with the new parts fitted and primed as well.
Filled my trunk holes, and fixed all the door dings on the car aswell. Not bad I dont think for this being my first ever attempt at body work...
Day 6...
So finally got to prime my skirts and front bumper. I mocked the skirts up again and they look 1000x better now that they arent 1000 different color.Also rigged the front bumper on just for pics. I took out my bumper brace for the FMIC install later this summer:guns:, but left the bumper support in. Its flimsy now, hence why the bumper looks so low, because the support bends down. But im going to have a buddy weld me in some braces. It'll be sturdy by the time he gets done with it for sure.
Even tho its rigged on there, it gives u a good idea of the end result. Im ordering the front fenders and my five lug (finally get to put my *%&**%&**%&**%&*in wheels on) tomorrow. Once those get in, i'll prep and prime them, and put them on along with the front bumper and the sides, along with the wheels.
Ill keep updating, but here are the pics...
BTW, ive also decided to keep the car black...
