i love it... although, i'm not really feeling that metal mesh in the bumper, either paint it black or take it out... its a ricey eye sore, lol.

other than that, dude, you look like you have a great project all lined up for you. ive always wanted a s13 vert w/ sil front end. i saw vert in okay condition the other night for about 2,500, kinda outa my range, but i'm assuming thats the price for verts... very tempting

Cool man... Do you know what kind of bodykit it is? You need to source the rear bumper ASAP. Rear end looks empty if you know what I mean.

Boat paint. You can put in on with a roller and then wetsand and polish it. DIY paint job for less than $100.

I must ask. WHere did you get the Nismo arms? They are expensive. I would keep the body kit .Without it, car looks weak and plain. You should spice it up a little bit. Maybe you will try to find less aggressive side skirts. Those hang too low compare to front bumper. ANyway, looking good and I like your tire/suspension/break setup up. Stance is nice.

I was talking about your car's overall "Stance," not Stance coilvers. I have GR+ Pro on my vert. Did you get a set of RUCA for the rear camber?
