what should i get?

lukamccloud · 08-06-2006, 04:45 AM

some old guy ran into my car the other day, the morning after i found out some pretty fu*ked up sh*t about my ex. anyway, the damage totalled $1200 but only damage is to driver side fender and some scratches on the bumper.

anyway, to the point.

i'm going to take the money and repair my entire car. every ding, dent, rock chip, everything. my dad is a body man, has been for the last 25 years, and is the best in the area. we're going to fix 'er all up and i'm painting it Bayside Blue Metallic.

what i would like to know is; what, how much, and where should i get my body mods(lip, side skirts, rear bumper) i've been thinking of getting the stillen front lip, either the jdm sunny or GTi-R skirts, but i'm not possitive about the rear bumper yet. i was thinking maybe the feelz rear bumper. i've already got an R34 GT-R spoiler, but i don't think i'm going to put it on. i may i may not. i'll have to see later.

what are you guys' recommendations?

Thanks,

Lance

Tsuru/JDM kit. Its ~$650 but you get all the other stuff with it like the interior pieces and the chrome muffler tip.

I do not like anyones ride who drastically alters the Classic's general shape or proportion. Less is definitely more, and personally I'm going with stock OEM.

Here are your tasteful choices if you must alter:

Stillens kit look pretty good. Search out forum member Borgus. His ride is a stunner. Black with Kosei K-1's and a full Stillen kit. Flawless.

Edit, here ya' go, Stillen kit on Borgus' ride:

The Tsuru/Sunny stuff always looks good. Pretty much all of it. And it's JDM yo.

I hate that Feels rear bumper with a passion. That is ugly as sin.

Please do not increase the size of the OEM wing. I have seen trunk lip style wings that look pretty good. Ie..... Like the ones on a 3-Series BMW from the eighties.

Aesthetics = Subjective

yeah. i was going to do the whole big body kit and skyline spoiler thing when i first got it, but i have since grown out of the body kit garbage.

i like the stillen front lip.

i've pretty much decided to get rid of the skyline spoiler.

i just don't know about the side skirts. which one's look the best? i hate how the side of the classic looks without anything there... it looks to plain, and i want to add some style to it. some class. but i want it to look clean and not rice.

the feels rear bumper is the only one, that i've seen, that i like. it's not too overexaggerrated body kit, and it's far from plain. and it kinda gives it it's big cousins' look. what don't you like about it?

nevermind. the guy is retired and on ssi. it's going to take me the next year of payments from him just to get $500 so i guess i won't be fixing my sh*t anytime soon.

...sigh...
