Looking for s13 kouki lower center panel?

Anyone know of where I could find a s13 kouki lower center panel?

Got the lights and center garnish from a friend and now just looking for the lower center panel.

Also just curious, with the stock center panel it fits but dosent sit flush and the lights stick out about 1/2 inch from the lower panel

Just wondering with the kouki center panel will it get rid of the gap as well?

Thanks and let me know guys.

it'll get rid of any gaps you've got now. it was designed along with the kouki tails for that reason.

Only thing I am wondering is why the lights stick so far out on the ends by the quater panel, its like they need to be pushed in about a 1/2 inch to sit flush on the sides but they cant go in any farther.

Anyone ever had to trim the plastic on the inside part of the light to get them to sit flush?

Don't know if I'm just being anal or if these lights really do just fit like shit.

yeah man, check your studs and stuff. back when kouki lights were like 600 for a new set, the imported ones always came with like bent studs and shit like that. mine had a couple studs missing, and one i cut out cuz it was so fucked.

sooooo, maybe that's why they're not fitting. because they fit perfect and make hatches look 20x better.

the lower garnish won't have anything to with your tails matching the quarterpanels

The stock lights sit perfect on the car so I don't think it has been in any sort of accident.

They seem to sit good except it just seems like then need to be pushed back about a 1/4 inch and they will sit perfect.

I don't think they are fckd up at all, maybe just need the plastic bulb housing trimmed?

I'll get a pic up of them tomorrow so you all can see what I'm talking about.

Your 180sx Kouki Center Garnish

If by any chance, you don't need it anymore, I would like to take it for a offer.

the new panel will fix your gap

koukis kind of arc out in the middle where as stock are almost flat all the way across you need the panel for them to be right

congratulations noob, you just bumped a 2 year old thread just to ask the guy to sell his tails.

There is a thing called p.m. for a reason try using it next time. Oh and by the way you can buy Kouki tails all over the place you really did not need to bump this thread.
