Awesome build Ed, its really coming along now. I understand the issue with not being able to have the rear window, but maybe you can just paint one in, IDK might just be me or just the fact that we're used to seeing rear windows on cars and not seeing it there makes it look weird, but it might look something like this if you just painted it.

when will y'all get it... NO WINDOW!!!!!! The roll cage just does not permit it. There is another horizontal bar on the inside just where the window would be... it would be through the line of vision out the back making the window totally useless. PLEASE QUIT BEATING A DEAD HORSE!!!!!

very nice work ed!!! i cant wait to see this thing in person sometime soon!!

Im amazed at the attention to detail you have put into this car/truck and how clean it looks...

to someone that does not know nissans all that well, i think they would believe it came from the nissan factory that way

The only things i dont like about your drift truck are the rims (which you said your replacing so thats a moot point) and the color. everyone now a days paints thier car wrx blue, or 350z orange.

but if the only remotley negative thing i can say is i diss like the paint, then you my friend have done a hell of a job! keep up the good work!

All I said was that Ed could paint the back part, I understand a window isn't going to be able to fit in there.

IMO it would look good from a distance if it were painted black as if there was a window there.

I, for one, love the wheels that you have on there, Ed. They look hot, nice and flush, and they have cheap tires. What more can you want from a drift truck?

Put in a rear camera so you can see whats behind you. Also painting in a window is not that bad of an idea.

Great job!!!!

Painting a back window in there would be so dumb. .. This idea reminds me of the stick on sunroof magnet it gives the look of having a sunroof GAY. Why why waste the time doing it why not take the time in getting it streetable.
