Sunny Orlando Florida rollin with ma fresh paint Nissan Cube Color

MadScientist · 05-04-2012, 09:15 AM

All this talk about wide fenders lately...

FRP v:s Metal

They both have good sides, but the main issue with FRP is cutting the stock metal out. Then if you stick with stock metal and roll/pull you have that crappy looking trim lip (imo) and only a few people have spend days rolling their fenders to make it look right. So with that in mind why not do a mix of both processes.
Cut the inside of the fender (support) away and body roll the fender near the trim line to blister the metal. Modify the inner support and reweld back on.

If I am wrong, show me why?

xoxide · 05-04-2012, 09:20 AM

That looks like shit. Whatsup with the yellow overlays on the headlights?

Theres a guy on here who sells usdm to jdm and vise versa license plate brackets for 10 bucks a pair.

xXKoukiXx · 05-04-2012, 02:28 PM

I bought the JDM front and rear bumpers w/ rear valances. How much do you guys think is a fair price to get it all painted pearl white?

Most shops would charge 4-500 out the door. Depends on if they are new, or previously painted... damaged, etc.

That's what I did. I just drilled two holes in the crash bar to mount the L-brackets, and bolted the license plate to them.

Here are some examples I just pulled out of one of the auctions, oh prices are for:

1998 NISSAN 240SX 2D COUPE SE

07/21/11 ST PETE Lease $2,300 110,775 Avg GREEN 4G 5 No
10/28/10 PALM BCH Regular $1,900 152,540 Avg WHITE 4G A No
05/24/11 METRODAL Lease $3,200 179,701 Avg BLACK 4G O No
02/14/12 HOUSTON Lease $1,500 187,457 Avg WHITE 4G O No

Remember not everybody has the access to these cars and shipping costs like you do. If this is the case and you can buy them that cheap, then why don't you take advantage of the opportunity to make money? Its obvious some people are willing to pay much more than what you would pay for clean '97 & '98's.

Sugoi_Style · 05-04-2012, 04:39 PM

zz kouki zz, interesting take on your 14. Reminds me of camo. Like to see the progression of this car in the future. Do you prefer a higher ride height? I know Orlando streets too well- uneven and cracked up to shit!
