Sir_daniel - Skyline R32 Gts-t -93 Tokyo Police

did buy the glass and the rear lenses from ebay australia

coudn't find them anywhere else.

why smash them?

there are 2 easy ways of removing the standard glass.

1. put the headlights in the owen for a short time (100-150 degrees celcius) then will the glue that holds the standard glass in plase get soft and it is easy to remove (use gloves hence your hands will get burned otherwise)

2. use a heatgun/hairdryer to get the glue to get softer then just remove the glass.

tools that might help you (helped me anyway)

screwdriver to get between the houseing and the glass to be able to bend

a knife to cut trough the "glue"

then remove the old blue eg. with a knife.

test fit the new glass, put on some new "glue" where the old glue was and put the new glass there.

if you have to much glue you will have to put some time on cutting and trimming it away, to little your headlights will take in water when you walsh the car (but hence you have somewhat warmer climate then here in Sweden your water will turn in to gases directly )

just keep the glue warm and soft and it will be easy to remove the glass.

Heating the whole headlight to 150 degrees makes it very easy to damage the actual headlight itself.

Do you have a link to where you got the covers from?

I can't seem to find any for R32's, only for S13's.

[Daniel Landström]

didn't mean that you should heat it to 150 degrees just let it be in the oven for a short period of time so the glue gets soft...

the link:

don't know if the seller got any more.

the next (not that expensive) thing that i will do to make the "police theme" more complete.

under the Tokyo Police Department Drifting department (that my car belongs to )

is there a sub-unit that goes under the name "Styling Police".

They don't bother about speeding cars or cars that brakes the normal trafic rules.

They only stop cars that either has a really ugly car eg. volvo 740 with a double blade F&F wing on the boot lid. also do they stop tuning/styling car owners that don't keep their cars clean, that just don't walsh their cars.

the fines/tickets for these hidious crimes are 100 hours of cleaning and rebuilding of their car

The Styling Police also have a budget for giving reverse tickets/fines, with that do i mean that they give a price for good styling/tuning, nice sounding car audio, shining cars and so on

im no expert on the matter even though I have been put in the back seat of a police car in tokyo. but I dont think there is a tokyo police department! tokyo is broken up into different areas. each area have their own police ... also make sure your kanji is right this time

[Daniel Landström]

the writing will be changed, and drifting department is just for fun, almost no-one in sweden has ever seen a japanese police car (some in the internet) but the theme is just my verion of their cars....

nice work, it must be difficult to source parts for R32s over there. I like the front of the car but the back bar is umm... too different. Good post though well done.

[Daniel Landström]

hence they wasn't sold here.... yes.... even nissan doesn't have FAST for skylines(!)

but buy parts from usa, japan, uk and australia when i need them
