hmmmmm - for the V1 Body kit, sprayed fitted, Nismo dual airfilter and nismo exhaust its looking at around 4K +
thats alot of cash --- thinking of maybe fiting the bodykit ? and aiffilter then get my friend to do the exhaust for cheap, but its still coming in at around 4k
Any help would be much appreciated
Great post - I have done brake pads and discs on an Ford, Peugeot, Golf and now my Bmw - but this looks slightly different with Brembos - like the idea of tape around nuts to stop scratching . With the rear I have found the handbrake can be a pain. With the bmw, I just re-adjusted the cable which was more time consuming but gave me piece of mind that it worked correctly.
does the paint work get done before fitting ?
have a double garage and I am a bit of a diy man, so do you think its possible to fit myself ? i think the side skirts are clued though
do a google, says something about the value of your order. They seem to charge for a few things and its all worked out on value, weight etc. I'm thinking of doing the same, but its frustrating not knowing the actual cost
My solution would be to get a sledge hammer and knock through to the garage on the right of the picture - why not make it double like mine
On a serious note, get yourself down to a alloy refurb place to see what they advise. only really done a dodgey touch up job on my mums old escort about 10 yrs ago, using a paint stick thingy. looked ok, but not on a lovely Z
Thanks Martin, maybe I should just wait until I am ready, then order the Nismo body kit, Air Filter, and exhaust system from the States or Japan, one big package which should be cheaper on duty.
Sound like a good idea ?
If I buy the nismo body kit, will I need to get the wholes cut out for the washers ? guess so from above, but others say not ? and is that something the body shop would do in the price for fitting ?
In a credit crunch im looking at getting the cheapest deal.
ZeddZ out of interest how much was duty ? ive done some google and found that you should allow about 30%, then again you might get away with nothing.
