After nearly 4months since that moron ran up the back of me while I was waiting at a set of lights, I finally got my car back on Friday. Click here for crumpled rear end pic

It's been way too long. But I am so happy to have her back. She even looks different nowadays. I do these ones :D everytime I start her up and hear that GT30r spool.

(here's what she looked like before)

Anyway, onto the pics of my updated 'line:

noice! you could even do the roof and pillars black and have a full on panda san-san.

I thought about it, but then I started thinking about going satin black on all the white bits...and then I thought about how silly I am to start thinking about thinking about doing such things. :D

Wow, what a finish looks awesome & also a bit different! Love the new rear boot very nice! You must be happy to have her back lookin better then ever!

Thanks dude, I'm very happy to have her back. Every time I look at her it just looks like a new car for some reason. It just doesn't look as fat and plump anymore. Looks a little bit more sleeker I reckon.

finally..

looks awsome, wheres the boot from?

Took their time didn't they!

Boot matches the bonnet. It's from East Bear - Japan. Jo from Powerplay (if you read this thanks heaps Jo!!!) got it in ages and ages ago, the smash repairers had the boot within a week of me dropping my car off. But I got my car 4 months later....

Nice one Wil,

Thanks guys :D. I love the end result. I guess for every bad there's a good.

Despite taking along time to do the work, the smash repairers I chose did a really good job. Going over it this morning (couldn't sleep) I noticed the panel gaps are really good, I can't even tell that they chopped the boot floor out, and they didn't screw around with my car despite me leaving the FC controller plugged in and unlocked (I wouldn't have done this unless I knew the guys...). So those are all good things. Shows they can be trusted...even if it means waiting a long time.

I decided to do away with the big sticker... Mainly because they had to remove/cut/panel beat the drivers rear quarter and it has brand new paint on it which you're not supposed to stick anything on to for up to 30 days. I think it looks cleaner now though. :D

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
