Here's a pic of my car(like 5 months ago). I'm thinking of selling the sideskirts(i bought new koukis already).

The car will not look like this when we have the cruise there's too many parts just in my room alone.

I'm like 99.99% sure it was the first 240 with the ls swap done in vegas.... correct me if I'm wrong

Once all of the widebody shit and paint is done, i'll be ready to cruise.

So of you need help with te body stuff let me know I'd love to help mold trip as all that. What panels are you doing? I'm saving to do koguchi!!!! But for now just gp spots bunper and a new paint job. It'll be ready by the cruise though. But e why wouldn't yours be done by then?

when is the cruise? maybe i missed something.

im not doing any of the work myself, i dont quite have the tools or know-how. everything on the car is going to be Origin from the fenders to the kit. The only reason i may not make the cruise is because there is a lot more involved in this process than just slapping on some fenders and new wheels. I have to get the rear quarters cut and welded, then get new tires mounted and balanced on the new wheels, then put on all of my SPL arms and take the car in for an alignment, then install the kit and four fenders and do any trimming or anything else necessary, and then take it to the paint shop.

To tell you the truth all that your doing isn't so difficult. Just need the space, time and tools. Hardest part and longest part would be the paint. If your getting the bay and jams painted then, yes that alone should only be a week to 2 weeks. The install on the arms isnt hard if you do it yourself then pay 100 for the allignment. But when and how long do you estimate it being down?

How is your car setup as far as suspension goes? that is going to play a huge factor in the way your car drifts.

Hey guys I forgot to mention that I roll fenders. I know it's an easy job but I do I a great job. I offer pretty cheap prices, especially for a zilvia member. If you guys could spread the word it I would appreciate it a lot.

I roll fenders also actually hahaah. But update on the cruise is that there's a few peoples cars down at the moment included me and the other host. Like I said looking for a cooler day and probably wed so we can meet up at the meet also. This cruise will consist of obviously a cruise, photoshoot, dinner then the meet.
