SkylineV35 Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 So after having my car back for a while now iv decided the frontend looks too tame.. so thought of a simple solution to make it slightly more aggressive looking but undecided on which ones... So... here are the options: 1.Curvy 2.corner to corner 3.Carbon fibre effort (my sh!tty attempt at editing dont laugh) If someone could edit for me that would be great to see! If not please leave an opinion.. thanks! Quote
SkylineV35 Posted November 12, 2013 Author Posted November 12, 2013 Yeah i am more inclined to corner to corner.. heres another effort corner2corner the other stuff is complicated! Quote
SkylineV35 Posted November 12, 2013 Author Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) OMG found this!!! Nismo front bumper! Blend it in with the bonnet! Lke those "badboy" bonnets you used to get on civics and saxos back in the days. Edited November 12, 2013 by SkylineV35 1 Quote
longsh07 Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Not the best but here's my attempt at option 1 which I prefer on your car personally. Ignore the white lines, I was being lazy with the editing Edited November 12, 2013 by longsh07 1 Quote

mattross1313 Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Corner to corner from me too matey Quote
SkylineV35 Posted November 12, 2013 Author Posted November 12, 2013 Them black lights look good too Yeah I had a look for lights but there all for the LHD market.. I had a similiar problem back in the days when i bought lights like that for a civic... the main beam points to the wrongside of the road! It just scrapes past mot too.. so from past experience iv not really done headlight conversions since. Although an option is to dismantle and spray myself but worrying about condensation if not sealed backup properly etc. Quote

This looks awesome Corner to corner FTW! il prob get a warning for posting a vauxhall page here but.. http://www.migweb.co.uk/forums/styling-wheels-interior/477880-how-make-badboy-bonnet-d.html is this really the best way? or am i better ordering the eyelids off ebay and just fibreglassing over it on to bonnet? Im worried that if i slam the bonnet overtime it will crack or something... Quote
Richie-B Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 They look like stuck on rubbish. If I had to pick on it would be the third from top photo. I guess the nismo stuff is hard to come by? If that's the look you want I would dig deep and go nismo Quote
R35LEE Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Corner to corner gets my vote Edited November 12, 2013 by R35LEE Quote
SkylineV35 Posted November 12, 2013 Author Posted November 12, 2013 Yeah 3rd one down is the ings eyelids.. Probably the better made and should be thin too and should sit flush with the headlight and bonnet assembly.. 30-40 quid to change the frontend slghtly cant complain. Whereas if i went 350 or 370 or even R35 frontend conversion would cost alot more and Mr Nissan would probably shoot me for doing so! haha Well thanks everyone but me thinks il go corner2corner and il get some pictures when they are colourmatched and fitted Quote

SkylineV35 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Posted November 22, 2013 Just a little update I went for the more subtle ones instead.. Just got them on will have to take a better picture during the day. Overall im pleased but going to mess around with the fitment as i keep thinking its not symetrical Quote
GT4 Zed Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 +3 So far as you reseal the lights properly after blacking them out condensation will not be an issue. Personall the grill and the tango reflectors is what makes it tame so changing the 2 would be a bug change or go the full hug with the nismo, eyelids, blacked out lights and de tango FTMFW! Quote

I had a look at the grilles but not to my liking it would just look like a big hole in the front on my car, plus i dont want it to look too street racer and retain some classiness of it being a Grand Tourer. Iv went the full hog with my previous cars but this one I want it to look more V.i.p. Yeah the reflectors lol they suck @ss hahaha Just reread haha it probably makes no sense to anyone..
