  4. Thanks everyone, much appreciated! Thanks! Yea, they are not nismo, just when i bought it-i didnt declare wheels to ins straight away...and could of got away if pulled over by po-po by sayng they are nissan/nismo wheels...they wouldnt know in most cases anyway lol and trader....no one from here i guess its my own fault for not checking description properly
  5. Thanks everyone haha best colour combo
  6. sorry, had to make few posts as it was saying that im trying to post more pics then im allowed what car looks like now
  7. parts fitted sprayed my spacers black, so they less visible. Had to spray them on the car as my mate put them on and done a proper job tighting them up, so i simply couldnt take them off haha before spraying forgot to take an "after" pic lol but looks much better also had nismo center caps delivered, so fitted them as well
  8. Car Pics Also realised that wa*kers didnt include centre caps stickers with the wheels, so had to carbon wrap them for now. Ordered some Nismo one Before: Then After Nismo centre caps stickers
  9. few more bits ordered wheels/spacers (bought from one of the traders here) exhaust carbon fibre bonnet(bought from one of the members on here) And some black wheel nuts/lcking nuts as the ones that came with the wheels were silver ones
  10. Got new JVC head unit witg flush surrounder, so looks like factory fit. Carbon wrapped central console (Massive thanks to m mate Chris for wasting 2 days to do it ) Didnt go to well at the top bit, where the dials are, so will get it re-done by a professional...either rewrapped or dipped. Also replaced few little bits, like interier bulb light/side lights/number plate lights - all been replaced with bright white LED bulbs and new short aerial. Carbon look repeaters Before: After:
  11. Thought I'll start my project log... hope you like! Got it about 8months ago and love it. Little pre-story...lol Bought it from parkway motors in mansfield...AVAOID THEM IF YOU CAN... went on a test drive(saturday)-all was ok apart from drivers side window regulator was gone...so they told me i cant have it till tuesday untill they fit new regulator and do new MOT for it...also noticed that boot struts not holding boot lid up...so asked to change that as well-on which they said ok, no problem... so i went home... managed to get day off from work on tuesday to pick it up...phoned them up on monday night and they told me that i cant have car till wed, because window regulaor not been delivered yet and car won't pass MOT if widnow dont open....same happenned on wed....regulator still wasnt there and got told to come on friday or sat to pick the car up....whch i wasnt very happy about-as was very excited and wanted to drive it! Luckily one of my mates is MOT tester and he said that electric windows are not part of MOT...so i phoned them and said that I'll pick the car up on thursday and they can just post regulator to me and i fit it myself....picked car up on thursday morning....on the way back home, on M1, car ran out of petrol when trip computer was still saying 90miles to empty!!!! Got my mate to drive to services and bring me some petrol....got home eventually....filled up full tank of V-power and constantly smelled petrol inside and outside the car...pulled over-looked under the car-and noticed petrol just pouring out on the ground! Checked it 1st thing in the morning-found that on fuel pump metal cover 1 screw/bolt was missing-so there is was a gap and petrol when pressured was just leaking out! Fitted new o-ring and missing bolt-fixed the problem....but 1 month later, after phoning them every 2-3days-still never received window regulator...eventully about 2.5months later i got....fitted-all ok... but still no new boot struts! Every time i phone them-they promise to order them and send them to me....now 10months later-still ent got them! They are not that expensive, and can buy them myself-but thats not the point lol So car had knackered window regulator, boot struts, fuel sender and fuel leak... fuel leak was there for a while as well as metal underneath the car, where petrol was leaking, was shiny like new....i wonder how they done and passed MOT day before? T**sers! Rant over haha All fixed now (apart from fuel sender....took both of them out, cleanned, so about 90% accurate now) Done few bits to it so far... This is how I got her
