taras Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) Simon had a make over with us last week as he too had a slight RTP addiction and the urge to stand out from the rest. His job spec was: Respray front lip Spray and fit CS Side Skirts Spray and fit CS rear bumper Spray and fit Blitz style spoiler specifically made for the vert. Satin black door handles Tint windows First the test fit of skirts and removal of the front bumper Rear bumper was still being made so that comes later on Little to no adjustment was needed for the skirts so we pressed on to getting them sprayed. Boot lid had holes flushed from removing the old nismo spoiler Edited February 6, 2013 by RT-Performance Quote
taras Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 now the rear test fit Prep and filler work Then the prime and spray Quote
taras Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 Then the assembly Then after a polish and a wash Possibly the best looking convertible rear zed? Fits like OEM Not gloss black but satin black! Quote
JoshThePonce Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 I see a better looking car (in my opinion ) in the reflection in some of the pics Does look smart though, wondered what it was having done when i saw it, fantastic job guys, can't wait to see mine Quote
taras Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 Josh. Yours is next in line as it's being worked on as we speak. Quote
Shaun1982 Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Looks lovely. Reflects like a mirror 1 Quote

st519 Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 You won't be disappointed Josh. The guys did a great job and the result exceeded my expectation by miles. So good that I just want to stand and admire the work rather than drive it around to pick up stone chips. 1 Quote
taras Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 Looks lovely. Reflects like a mirror It was very difficult trying to take a photo without your self being seen jn its reflection. Im sure simon will have a chance to experience that pretty soon when the sun finally comes out. Quote
ioneabee Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 erm - how can you tint the windows ? aren't they already at max tint from factory ? Quote
taras Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 erm - how can you tint the windows ? aren't they already at max tint from factory ? is that a logical or legal question? Quote
ioneabee Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 legal as far as I was aware + (i was told - correct me if I'm wrong) insurance will void - it has been fairly well discussed on here Quote
taras Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 you can have back as dark as you want you simply need to declair it with your insurance as they mite use it against you. Some vehicles dont even have rear windows as its not compulsory. Quote
ioneabee Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 agreed - meant side and front - don't know what your customer wants doing - but (not having had a 350 roadster), isn't the rear window plastic not glass ? Quote
taras Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) It would be tinted as normal. The same rule is applied for rear quarters. The front sides are of legal limits. Edited February 6, 2013 by RT-Performance Quote
ioneabee Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 ah, its glass then ? thought it was plastic Quote
S1 HNK Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) That blitz spoiler transforms the rear, a must for any roadster to get rid of that bulbous rear Edited February 6, 2013 by S1 HNK 1 Quote
GT4 Zed Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Saw the roadster in RTP while it was getting worked on. Taras and his team know their stuff without a doubt. 1 Quote
mrt Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 What does a conversion like this cost including the new bodyparts ? I,ve got a blade silver 05 convertible and might consider this upgrade. mrt Quote
SteveM Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Spoiler does transform the rear... Like that blitz one. Nice work Edited February 19, 2013 by SteveM Quote
KC350Z Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 I would love this rear on mine not sure how it would go with the nismo spoler it has on her now though can you p.m price for rear and sides blade silver fit and surply thanks Quote
taras Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 I would love this rear on mine not sure how it would go with the nismo spoler it has on her now though can you p.m price for rear and sides blade silver fit and surply thanks Honestly the nismo spoiler really isn't my cup of tea. What side bits are you referring to? Quote
st519 Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) My car did have a Nismo spoiler (copy) on and it was way too big, couldn't see a thing from the tiny window. For convertible I think something like this is perfect. My old spoiler will be up for sale soon, hopefully can do it this weekend. the nismo is too big for convertible, not sure about coupe. The blitz would do nicely for both in my opinion. Edited February 20, 2013 by st519 Quote
taras Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 take a look at our traders section and youll see many coups with the blitz spoiler. The roadster spoiler was modified by us origionally from a coupe. Quote
