looks like autobarn mesh to go with the cheap HSV looking front bar. It would have been better with a front bar designed for an N/A car maybe I dunno but mesh looks craptastic on any car.

I have to disagree.

Mesh CAN look okay on the right car, it's just when it's over-the-top and cheap looking that it becomes tacky.

I have to say that on Cara's car it looks top notch! Because there's no FMIC it needs something to fill the hole there and the mesh does a good job of finishing it off.

or a non connected FMIC lol

lol. I actually had one of them on my N/A for a little while... I mounted it all up before I did the RB25DE+t conversion... felt like a real tool driving around with it here not hooked up though... I mean the only real giveaway was the lack of power... although I did have one guy jump out of his car at the lights one day and ask me if he could take a look at my cooler piping as he was trying to work out his... lol had to tell him that it wasn't hooked up yet - probably thought I was an idiot :)

i don't mind the mesh. i actually think it looks tacky without mesh and just a big hole. and at the front of the bonnet the mesh hides the white radiator support and bonnet latch.

the radiator support and bonnet latch are gonna get painted black (crash repairers decision lol) which is fine, i think it wil look better if they are black.

    • 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!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
