I know they charge a lot..I asked for quotes before, charge me somewhere about $800 for a fibre glass front bar copy...so I went somewhere else..

Where did you go for your front bar then?

I am actually after a body kit for my 'line at the moment and still doing research on where I should go for.

Cheers

My Skyline had its BodyKit done at Fibre Vision (with previous owner), I have receipts for front bar, skirts, fenders and rear bar $6000+! Bit of an overkill ay, money could've been put to better use but yeh!

Im giving them a call today because the glue has already turned to shit and sides are lifting (pritty f**ked considering the 6k was spent less then 6 months a go)!

Thanks for the comments guys.

@kx2fity

Thats a lot of money just for body kit. Would you mind to tell me a little further about it i.e. How bad is the lifting? Hows the fitting i.e. any gap between kit and car's body?

@Mitchy

I called him twice already during last week but unfortunately I could not grab a hold of him and hence couldn't get a chance to have a good talk and possibly to get a quote as well. However, I will give another try.

Btw, did you get, paint and fit your front bar from brett? Your front bar looks hot.

Cheers

mine took about 2.5 weeks to have front bar fitted, painted, etc.. and i had a few other bits and pieces cleaned up while it was there.

they get busy though, brett will let you know how long it will take. :yucky:

Yeah, I will have some scratches to clean up either...might as well do it while I get my kit done. Thanks for the info mate.

That is an awesome car you got there mate! Love the tail light.

But black colour is a bitch to keep clean aye. We are in the same boat by the way (I have a black R34) LOL!

Tell me about it, I spent over hr cleaning it yesterday and its already covered and dirt and shit!

I have a mate who cleans BMWs for a living and he gave me some pointers on cleaning black cars, and apparntly keeping their shine for longer

(light wash, dish wash detergent soak, sponge of, shammy dry, Microfibre cloth with window cleaner 'polish')

Post some pics of your car (maybe some before and after shots) of when you get your kit!

    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?
