Top notch service from Jdmdistro, wheels arrived quickly and are exactly how described so 10/10 in my books. Just remembered I've got some unused polished wheel nuts as well so dug those out... Just gets better and better WOW they look awesome! cant wait to see them on your car buddy. 1 Quote
Akumanozetto Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Hello, i want to install the nismo bumper to my gt model just like yours. Yet, i am not planning to get the DRL as they are too exp to me. In that case, is there anything that i need to get apart from the bumer itself and the Front Fascia Lower Molding Red Finisher? mind sharing the parts for both bumpers part you have fitted to your car so far many thanks Quote
Silverthorn Posted February 10, 2019 Author Posted February 10, 2019 @Akumanozetto hi mate. For the front bumper all you will need is the bumper itself and the two red lower strips. You can also get the tow hook cover but I didn't bother with that myself. For the rear bumper all you will need is the bumper itself and the tow hook cover. The bracket that holds the fog light is a perfect fit so don't bother with the Nismo one. Hope that helps. Cheers Quote

Silverthorn Posted February 11, 2019 Author Posted February 11, 2019 New wheels are on Couldn't be happier with them. They've far exceeded my expectations of how it'd look! Probably a little bit 'stancy' for some but it's exactly what I wanted and then some... Bring on the 2019 show season!! 6 Quote
Payco Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) You should be happy, the car looks spot on in my book.Would be good to meet you at Simply Jap at Beaulieu in the summer if you are happy to drive up. Edited February 11, 2019 by Payco 1 Quote

LRF4N Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Nice.... but.... I prefer your old ones and I don’t normally like dark wheels 1 Quote
nissanjuke Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 nice job, what size are your tyres and wheels and did you use 20mm spacers 1 Quote
Silverthorn Posted February 11, 2019 Author Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) @LRF4N Never been hugely keen on dark wheels to be honest but decided to give them a go and I'm glad I did! They did look pretty awesome imo. @nissanjuke Wheels are 19x10.5J et12 all round with 255/35 tyres. On the rear I've got a 25mm spacer and on the front I have a 20mm spacer with rolled arches If I didn't have the camber arms then I probably wouldn't run the spacers on the front end. Edited October 19, 2020 by Silverthorn Quote
nissanjuke Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 thanks, I have standard wheels, to be painted black/yellow and will go 20mm spacer all round, but if I changed the wheels I probably would not need spacers depending on wheel size , thanks for the info 1 Quote
Humpy Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 Those wheels are bang on, beautiful. Never keen on dark wheels imo. Car is looking sweet with the new shoes. 1 Quote
Silverthorn Posted February 17, 2019 Author Posted February 17, 2019 @Humpy Thanks mate! Probably my favourite thing I've done to the car. Just need to finally get round to ordering those TS sideskirt extensions and drls to really complete it imo Quote
Silverthorn Posted March 2, 2019 Author Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) Had my front knuckles shortened by 25mm the other day to stop the upper control arm from tapping the inside of the suspension turret. 10mm threaded stainless rod holding it all together and then had it all welded up by a company local to me. Works perfectly! Popped out for a few quick photos afterwards as well. Edited October 19, 2020 by Silverthorn 1 Quote
teejay Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 Them works wheels or repos and someone as nicked your centre caps Quote
Silverthorn Posted March 10, 2019 Author Posted March 10, 2019 @teejay Genuine works mate. They just didn't come with centre caps when I bought them Quote

Silverthorn Posted March 11, 2019 Author Posted March 11, 2019 @Payco Yeah I did take a look at them. No matter where I buy them from they seem to be the same price. £16 per centre cap seems crazy money to me I'll leave it for now. I may purchase some at some point but we'll see! Quote
