Here is a picture of my new rims test-fitted to my s13:



The problem is, I'm not sure if I want soms simple sideskirts and kouki rear aprons or not.My not-so-1337 photoshop skills gave me this:



The spoiler has got to go, and the zenki front stays, there is no doubt about that. But about the rest I'm not sure yet, what do you guys think?

I'm not a fan of oem rear aero stuff but the skirts would look fine.

Needs to be lower and the skirts and valances look fine with the front lip and wing-less. Either way its your car just do what you want .

On another note there are a million threads about "What should i do to my ride" Remember one thing ITS YOUR RIDE

I saw the set, very nice, but the problem is, I live in the Netherlands, so I think the shipping will be as expensive as the skirts themselves. Sadly, the EU version of the s13 hatch never had sideskirts.

Looks good, simple and clean OEM components. Try to go the fiberglass route if you want to save money, specially in Europe where OEM rare parts can be somewhat expensive. You should be able to find FB copies for less euros....

Thanks its what i was aiming for, I dont want a flashy bodykit or anything, just something subtile, and preferably as OEM like as possible

The emotion crew one is exactly what I was picturing in my mind, except white I like it

Btw, are the coupe / silvia ps13 skirts the same as the rs13?Trying to find nissan partnumbers, see if I can order them from the dealer (they wont have them in stock, but perhaps they can be ordered if I have the partnumbers)
