Extended Ichiba studs arrived today so that's nice. Yay JNS. OMP seats arrived a week or so ago, I love em. Nice and snug;



Still can't make up my damn mind on paint for body or wheels. Keep going back and forth on these couple ideas:

White wheels/chrome lip and mocha/Latte color body

My inspiration for the above:



I think it has potential, won't be like any other Skyline out there. Plus I'm now infatuated with white wheels.

Or,

Midnight purple wheels/chrome lip and pearl white body

Opinions? Suggestions?

White wheels are sex, as long as nothing else is white on the exterior, then it looks ricy.



i like it just the way it is

Haha the paint is **** bud, it needs to go. I'm slowly leaning towards the beige just because I have never seen it, and if that Civic is any indication looks awesome w/ white wheels.

[RHDskyline]

Im not feeling the beige. But yeah i know, the red has to go.


I always wanted a green or orange skyline


but like lime green, or fluorescent orange.

that would be sick


but your car, your rules. driftings all about style and making your ride one of a kind

Do the beige! That with white wheels would look amazing. Please do it and then come to skymeet so i can see it.

What wheels were you thinking? I would go white meisters/chrome dish.

Ya I'm going for it haha, too original and clean for me not to.

These are my wheels but the center will be painted white obviously and I'll polish the lip up. SSR Gulf Stich 17x8.5, 17x9.5 +12 as stated above:

[Nissan_Sean]

Those are sick. Perfect dish. Those are 17? they look big.

I wish i could get vs-k's in 17 for the front. Regardless I'm excited to see this all painted.

That's the way dude: do it once, do it right! Nice mani btw, who made it, fitment ok? Good progress so far, don't worry if it's a slow build, completing everything slowly almost always nets a nice result.

[M0nkeyMark]

Looking really good
