Looks nice like that, i would spend my money on brakes or handling or performance.

carbon fibre bonnett? Defect

lower car? scrapes on speedhumps and steep driveways and effects handling

front bumper of front lip?? I smashed my 400R on a driveway(gone back to stock)

Just my 2 cents.

some nismo clear side indicators? only like 80 bucks but i would spray the outer section white instead of leavin it black like a majority of ppl.

if ya going for styling looks (obviously cause u put it in this section lol) how bout some interior stuff?

how are ur wipers looking? mine looked a lil worse for wear so i sprayed em a matte black. made the front look a lil newer. but i guess only to me as i was the only one that knew i did it. lil things like that i like doing to brighten the car up a bit. anyway im rambling.

just have a close look around ur car and things u might wanna change, write them down and think of a way to do it. even the smallest things changed can make u feel better about the looks of ur car

yeh i was thinking the exact same thing the other day mate, was looking at my wipers and was thnking that they need a touch up hey. looking a bit worse for wear,. but yeh i guess i would be the only one that would notice it but would look better to me as im everyday noticing it.

clear indicators one step a head of ya hey haha waiting for them to arrive in the mail. yeh thats a good idea about spraying white,will keep that in mind for sure thanks mate.

another thing i did (but failed lol) was spray the rubbers around the windows. saned a few bits, taped it all up and sprayed fine. next day car was in sun for a while and all parts i didnt sand properly had gone wet again cause it didnt grab properly :) the B pillar garnish looks alot better though. will have to do a proper job. just used the same stuff as i did the wipers with.

so check over your car for bits that could use a touch up with some paint and give it a go.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
