i must say, seeing the pictures doesnt clarify everything. but in saying so :

1, looks like this guy knows what hes doing if he had to cut your skirts and re fibreglass join them , aside the paint quality as they say you get what you pay for.

2, the kit obviously is garbage if he had to join them. you can see why , obviously these skirts wont bend around the gaurd to fit , thats why he has cut them.

3, rear bar looks terrible , these cheap kits are rubish , they never fit properly and i must say , iv never seen a decent body kit which hasnt got cracks in the paint . you twist the car going up steep drive way and they crack without them touching the floor. they are just garbage

4, stick to the standard bodykit , that thing doesnt suit the skyline one bit. quality isnt cheap , thats why plastic or carbon fibre is the way to go as far as body panels. genuine plastic panels , your looking into the high hundreds per skirt , bumper.

Replying to your post SKY017 ---- if this guy knows how to cut the fibreglass then he must know how to join them as well but got massive lumps where he joined the side skirts.......... you are right that these pictures can't do justice............. you have to see it to believe .............. i showed the bodykit to Victor at jetspeed and after looking at the bodykit he recon. if someone knows how to install fibreglass bodykit will not cut it and join it again............... he recon. heating the fibreglass with a heat gun should flex it and no need of cutting for just extending it 2cm.......... same with the rear bar.................... All fibreglass kits are not rubbish mate............ i checked the quality of this whole kit before buying it and it was not too bad............... it all depends how you prep. it so you can get good results ........................ you shold seen the paint job mate............... it got paint run marks everywhere even on the genuine plactic rear spoiler series-2........ the person who can't paint the genuine spoiler ............ then waht you expect from him with the fibreglass.............. yes, it was my f**K up in first place that i want to save bit of money and trusted this guy.............. but learned the hard way .......................

Why do people still pay good money for fibreglass Shit. On one of my first cars (nissan Exa) I got a Jetspeed body kit fitted to it paid stupid amounts of cash for it and it never fit properly looked shit and lasted about a week!

Edited by SLDN-31

Being fiberglass doesn't mean it's shit... Even Nismo or Eastbear makes fiberglass, does that mean they make shit parts?..

I think what people should do is invest some money into well known brands, brands that have good feedback on fitment.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
