east bear kit.

Easy.

Probably just cheaper that $10,000 after its fitted,painted and new wheels bought etc.

DONE. no cutting/welding/aligning etc etc lol

As for gun metal dude hating on posers etc, adding wide body guards is not necessarily trying to copy the GT-R is just looks better that way, it gives the car more angles and what not, its like rolling a turd in glitter... it just looks better.

p.s it would look a lot better than if he was to just buy a body kit without going wide body, almost every kit iv seen has side skirts that stick out like dogs balls and doesn't blend into the overall body shape.

Edited by R34 -_-

i'm not 100% sure but i think the rear track on the GTR is wider, so just bolting on a set of GTR wheels isn't going to quite sit the same as they would on a GTR. you would more than likely need spacers.

in all seriousness though, you are going to be looking at big money to get this done. as i said earlier, there is a lot of work involved, and the more i think about it, the more work it seems. just the paintwork alone will set you back a minimum of $1500 to $2000 and that's if they simply paint the rear quaters and blend it into the other panels (cheapest way to do it with the result being that it will be reasonably obvious that it has been resprayed). i'd say that the actual cutting of the guards and fitting the new ones will be another few thousand as well. the more i think about it the more i'm starting to think the price would be closer to 10k.

if it was me doing it, i'd simply sell the car and buy a GTR. sure the cost might be a bit higher, but then you don't have the stuffing around and the chance that it could turn out looking like crap if 1 of the guards isn't put on straight, or if the panel bows a bit when it is welded.

hey another question, does anyone know if the axles on a gtr are longer than a gtt, like from hub to hub?

just say i wanted to put a set of black gtr wheels after the panels r on, would they sit the same or would i need spacers??

if so i guess that $6000 comes down to sumwere around the $2000 mark aye GUN_METAL_GTR32

not really mate, i bought brand new 19insh vs-kf from japan and they cost 4200 + freight then pirelli corsa tyres for 600ish each so yeah i reckon my "quote" for the rims was pretty accurate.

gtr rims on a gtt sit nearly flush so if u add gtr guards probably add another couple of inches.
