Haha sorry Brock,

the car looks really good. im contemplating on doing a gtr bumper i just didnt know how it would fit without GTR fenders since they are a bit wider

No worries. And thanks!

The gtr bumper doesnt really fit perfect with gts fenders. The corners of the bumper 'poke' into the wheel wells. But it really isnt a big deal. You just have to cut your gts bumper support to fit the bumper and front mount

Hey Boot, did you do GTR front fenders as well?

Feel free to call me Brock.

Thanks 94'!

I actually did not do GTR fenders. Just the front bumper. I also cut my gts hood and bought a gtr replica grille. I would still like to find a silver gtr hood and maybe an oem gtr grille too. Im still contemplating painting the grille silver... I think i like the black. But I know silver would look good too.

So I attached the GTR bumper lip. Was downtown today with some friends and a camera so we experimented with some HDR effects. Comparing this picture to the one of the first page of this thread puts a smile on my face. Feels good to make progress!

Then...


Now...


And yes.... side-skirts are high on the shopping list for next winter. One thing at a time I guess...

Well everything is mounted except for my bumper lip and hood lip. Will do that next weekend but I snapped a few quick pics for now.










No holes or rust!

Nice car! When you installed your FMIC, did you use the piping that it came with? Did you need make new pipes or was it pretty much bolt-on?

Thanks man! I did use the piping that came with it however the piping kit did NOT include a pipe from the turbo outlet to the wheel-well (below your passenger side signal light/below your intake filter). What I ended up doing was cutting a large hole in the wheel-well section of the engine bay to run piping. I then bought a 12in 90degree pipe and cut some of my stock IC piping to run to the IC core. They advertised the IC as bolt-on but I did end up fabricating some stuff. The bottom brackets for mounting the core were really flimsy and too short. So I used some scrap aluminum plate and made my own.

I am working out of the city right now so I cant take pictures but this coming weekend I will update. Got all my paint back and it looks awesome! Now have a rustless/spoilerless trunk lid! I mounted the front bumper late sunday night but I still need to fabricate bolts to safely and properly mount the lip. I also forgot the trunk lock mechanism at the body shop so I need to install that before I can drive it. All in all I figure I am two hours from being done my car for the summer. Hopefully plan on doing a photoshoot in the next few weeks with a friend who also has a GTS.
