i haven't seen any legit ones on a Zenki before. I've heard of 2 Kouki ones on this forum with legit Vertex body kits, but I'm not sure if they were the widebody ones. i find it hard to believe in SD that everybody there is rocking a body kit that cost almost as much as the car. this is the Vertex Ridge Widebody version that retails for $2890 on Vertex-USA, not their regular Vertex or Lang body kit. then again, what do i know? I'm on the east coast LOL.

There should be more than 2 Kouki ones... I've seen a black one, white one, and my own Yellow one...





But you won't see another Kouki Ridge with a Friend's front bumper modified to fit...

Note : I didn't want to put the headlight covers on because I would need to take the headlight housings out in order to get the tabs in and i don't intend to use them anyways. Also I don't plan on using the front bumper cover either. Its really weird how it holds up, and it would probably get jacked real quick. Maybe even partially come off. I'm keeping the hood cover on though

car bras actually trap moisture, and dirt under the leather bra and when they move or flap or whatever they do, they will be rubbing dirt and shit against your paint. often ruining your paint, also, you will end up not fading the paint under it and if you ever decide to take it off, you will have discoloration out the wazoo.

also, did you buy the bra at the industry day garage sale at irwindale? I saw it there and was going to buy it to sell to some shcmuck.

also bras should never be on a car period. I seldom want to see woman wear bras, why would I want a car to wear it?

This is RARE.

Picked this up recently, S13 Panache Upper Steering Column Cover to use for HKS or other rectangle shaped electronics.







It'll be hooked up soon. Still looking for old HKS electronic to place in it or something else creative.

+1. A legit Vertex kit isn't rare. Just expensive. It can still be bought. Therefore, not really rare. Just hard to get because of money. But it is readily available. Show something out of production and of value, and you got some rare.

Not exactly S-chassis stuff, but a Veilside Evolution is one of the hardest exhausts to find for a Z32

Maybe "rare" in the sense that 90% of the time your looking at a car rocking a replica. So it, well, uncommon to see the legit ones by comparison. It's out there if you want it.

Rare to me is "shits so hard to find money "doesn't matter" cause your not finding it for sale". Sort of thing.

S2 VQ is rare in that few of us will ever see one, but it's readily available....just god damn expensive.

180sx Arc

I have a set of Arc sway bars for S13. They are so beefy.

This picture is for S14 Arc sway bars from Jspec, just to show you how big they are.

Mine look the same.
By the way, Arc is going out of business, so these might be even harder to find.http://zilvia.net/f/chat/370714-fyi-...ankruptcy.html
