ChristopherJames Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Well after finally getting my hands on one of these it wasnt long until the smoothing began. I didn't really get a lot of time during the week so hit it hard on Saturday, hoptfully get the final finish ready for spraying next weekend.

SteveW Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Looks really good! I must say I was dubious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I like that. I would have kept the reflector spaces personally, but it does look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Its starting to look like the nismo v2 tbh. Will look forward to seeing in painted and fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 i'd either cut the middle square out or paint it black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 i'd either cut the middle square out or paint it black Yep mines got painted by some idiot and he painted it gm and it looks hideous. Luckily the paint job was awful and the garage gave me money to get my own painter to do it so it will get changed back to black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J4ym0 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Looks great can wait to see it on your car smooth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherJames Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 Thanks for the comments. I prefere the n1 to the n2 just due to the contours of the bumper so this should be a happy medium. As for the centre I was thinking of cutting that out but for the time being it will be a black mouth and gm bumper. Once this is done I need to get my hands on side skirts and spats :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Looks brilliant. Like my aerosync but without the reflectors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wackosr Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Nice job, should look great when finished and fitted. Looking forward to the pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherJames Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 Thanks for the comments. I have had no free time at work at all so this will be picked up again on Saturday. Might be a bit of a long shot to get it ready and painted on Saturday, but hopefully if I get all the prep done I can paint it during the week.... That's the plan anyway. As soon as its done I will get some pictures up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rothers2901 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Nice little project. Looking to follow suit in the near future. Where did you purchase the front from and does it fit well without too many alterations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherJames Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 Nice little project. Looking to follow suit in the near future. Where did you purchase the front from and does it fit well without too many alterations? Thanks. I managed to get this off eBay. Just randomly flicking through and spotted it. I made a snap decision to buy it as it is a genuine nismo so hoping it fits with no modifications but it will be test fitted before I spray it just to double check.

ChristopherJames Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 Right. The grande unveiling is near! I finished, sprayed and managed to fit the bumper today. It is a bit tight under the lights and need to order some new bolts and the clips that you screw into located in the arch but I have to say I'm pretty pleased with how it's turned out. There are a few bits that I will alter when I spray it again but will let everything settle and see how things go, as it's pretty low at the front now! When I get to my laptop I will up load some pictures :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
