jumping350 Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Sunny day so i thought i would rectify some of my mistakes Firstly car got decatted early morning and its got a slight rasp at high revs but was expecting that have got a vid but dont know how to post up So im now running APS decats a HR y pipe and fujitsubo centre pipe and box for my 03 import bit of a mishmash but im quite happy with it nice tone and not overly noisy at low revs/cruising but put your foot down and all day! Next i ripped of my carbon vinyl self wrapped front lip (it was most shocking effort recorded to man i think) then i proceeded to plasti dip it then finish off with a RT splash! conclusion Plastidipping much easier then wrapping but i got it near on perfect so maybe better option for front bumper?? Finally i got these lights second hand im not 100% on them i like them but not to sure on the bulge..any comments let me know im gonna get LEDs but deciding on these or standard in the mean time and i washed it for the first time in 3 months and still filthy Quote
jumping350 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Posted March 29, 2012 Those lights are vile. thats why there not on the car wanted to guage a feel for them thats a fail from Ekona i think Quote
richt Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Bad bad lights. Just get some face lift ones. Quote
sparky370z Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 sorry dude, have to agree the lights are shite!! bumper looks cool tho!!! Quote
jumping350 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Posted March 29, 2012 yeah looks like might have to, swapped these for a set i had anyway so no biggie may have to sling them on ebay seem if someone has them Quote
Maccaman Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Good to hear you have finally had a wash after 3 months Quote
ninjaz Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 I though of plasti dipping my front lip as well as my wrapping is starting to peel. I was going to re-wrap it today only to find the sheet of vinyl to be not big enough I dont think plasti dip would stand up to the constant battering/stone chips being so low down Let us know how it stands up as I might give it a go Quote
jumping350 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Posted March 29, 2012 Good to hear you have finally had a wash after 3 months yes its been sweaty Cars been in and out of garage that time so just gets filthy again quick..next up is vinyl roof (or plastidip ) new bonnet and new undented passenger door waiting to go on! then full clean wax and clay pigeon stuff i hear everyone go on about. Wrapping is ok if your good at it i just couldnt cope with the curves!! i thought the same thing so i put 8 coats on that should rebound some of those stones Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Somebody else with a Fujitsubo Legalis R back box! YEAH!!! Quote

jumping350 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Posted March 29, 2012 ok theres 4 of us lol ive not seen anyone on here with one good to see theres still a few about! Quote
ChrisB Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Agreed, lights are hideous. ...but I'm also part of the Fujitsubo zorst club. They come up lovely and shiny after a bit of autosol - first bit of advice I learnt on here a year ago.. Quote
Dblock Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 I dont mind the lights kind look like headlights but they arent that bad. Do YOU like them? Baaaaa. Quote

OMG shiny shiny shiny! Quote
narcotix Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 There's just no beating the LED rear lights ... I do like the front bumper though ... Quote
jumping350 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Posted March 30, 2012 I dont mind the lights kind look like headlights but they arent that bad. Do YOU like them? Baaaaa. you wanna buy them?? i think they would be ok if they didnt bulge out or maybe on a different colour car,on blade silver only certain mods seem to look good. ive been inspired by others to buy some autosol and clean my zorst and strut bar ..ive had a cleaning week! hoovered it aswell Quote
Ricey Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Not that it needs saying again but I'll just cement the decision...those lights are the worst kind of grim shady! Quote
jumping350 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Posted April 2, 2012 everyones got shiny strut bars and i wanted one soooo....I got my first engine bling item then unblinged it got it second hand cheap and it was covered in funny stuff that with many hours of polishing couldnt get it off or even shiny!!(Steve 350z thread may help solve that though!!) Anyway was rather shocked when i unwrapped it and saw this stamped in the middle Quote
jumping350 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Posted April 2, 2012 anyway as with everything i own thats ruined i plastidipped it and looks quite cool now i think..haha i dont think theres anything i wont plastidip!! But none the less my first engine dress Quote
