Makes it look like an rb25 in the thumbnail pics, needs a gt-r logo or something in the middle

I dont really like the yellow, but hey it matches the car.

Whats the retail on a set of those? More than we can afford pal?

Blitz has a set of full carbon ones(not the cheap ones) for $510

[LTHLRB]

looks killer trent it will look mean with the r34 red colour rocker covers and that carbon cover... but the theme is yellow

[Abo Bob]

I think it looks great. Better than all yellow fo sho.

[Dahtone Racing]

looks good man but all the covers need to be carbon

[LTHLRB]

where did your hose clamps go?

killer looking engine bay man

[noone]

yeah they have alot of side ventilation, hard to see in pics.

I take it the fit on yours was nearly as good as the ones I got then, I was kinda disappointed

Still havnt fitted them as I am not sure I can get a fit I will be happy with,

will give it a serious go on this break coz they do look hot

just fit shitty

[Dahtone Racing]

LTHLRB - hose clamps are still in the box with the rest of my engine bay shit that needs to go on LOL

LTHLRB - turbo is a 3540

URAS - fake stick on aye?

thats interesting considering you have no idea who did it or how it was done

its done by modicoat and its not stuck on its a film that its applied by dipping and then clear coated with 2K clear

it will not go yellow like real carbon it will not de-laminate like real carbon and it will fit 100% first time every time

ive fitted real carbon covers to a number of different cars and they all fit like shit

but it is fake (its a film).... thats the point. I dont even like the look of the real ones on our car but that fake looking stuff with skew-wiff lines going through it looks even worse.

as for yellowing decent stuff will last longer than most will ever keep thier cars... the carbon parts on my race bike (ex 1999 WSB) lasted the 6 years before i sold it and they are still on there (new owner) as good as new.....

EDIT: sorry if you took offence i did not know it was your bay.... next time i will bite my tongue. If it helps i like the rest of the bay:)

regardless fake or not, i think it looks hot

and ive played with carbon before and i personally couldnt tell, not everyone is an expert.

Wooow. What kind of attitude is that.

Funny thing is you're the one who started this thread with a set of fake carbon centre covers. If you think those fibreglass-covered-with-carbon are the real deal then you need to see real carbon ones (HKS Kansai for example).

Nice worth Anthony, awesome looking engine bay you have there Nice to see a decent motor in there!
