what exactly do you mean lol. your looking at r32 taillights, r32 bumper, custom made rear spats, gtr spoiler and a modified stock trunk. unfortunately I did not have a camera at the time I did the work. the taillights were done about 3 years agothe quarter panels are 50 mm s13 widebody overfenders molded on and then a whole bunch of fiberglass and body work done to them to give it that kinda skyline look. I think I've got more pics of the quarter panel shaping process somewhere. I'll try and find them for you

hey guys, sorry I've been away for so long. As it stands right now the vert's been on the back burner. I may be selling it. It's kinda tough to say but I don't really have room for it anymore. I'll be driving the vert down to Adams Motorsports Park on July 7th in Riverside, California for a big drift event, just as a spectator. any so-cal locals should roll on out.
