saw the car last year at NOPI...before the flames and tails....

i always appreciate custom work but some things i'd do different...

1)don't leave the chrome grill...paint it already
2)all that shaving and you leave a keyhole? just install a pop already
3)nice stickers on the rear bumper...i assume SKYLINE on the left? nice...

I like the flames, but he f-d up with the tails.
He needs to add at least 2 more to make it right (that's per side)
he's got no back up lights, and he eliminated his turn signals (seriously doubt he knows how to rewire the brakes so they flash with the signals)
Just my .02

At least it is done cleanly and not all ghetto. Your right about the grill it needs to be white. Other then that it's nice if you like that kind of thing.

hmm...I pretty much agree with what Chris said.

I do like the design of the flames but think they would have been better if they were ghost flames. If I knew how to do ghost flames I probably would .

The tail end (trunk, lights etc.) just ruined it for me though IMO.

I like the steering wheel. He says it's grant. I went to their website, and it's apparently the f1 steering wheel. I called the firm but they say they don't sell products for us because of "federal laws regarding airbag equipped vehicles". She was persistent even though I tried to explain to her that mine doesn't have one.

I gotta admit the flames have some qaulity... Just not our cars. The stock tail likes look hot on blue. Or they DID.

Could use some binkers in the front ay?

My interior was white, till i got it back fromt the tranny shop! B@stards...

Let loose the dogs of war...

edit: yeah, they cost a few thousand but as for the work, it's a simple affair that lasts all of 15 minutes... ask your local tire shop. only they have the tools to do it. I know, I know, i thought the same thing when I heard about it... but yeah, call up Les Schwab.



Oh, ask for some cans of Vaccum too... it'll make the job SOO much easier. If they dont, go to a different store... why pay hundreds more for something like that?!
