Heya all,
I've been toying with the idea of getting a stock rear bar (R32), and having the 'SKYLINE' part of it light up at night...
I went to a custom bodykit manufacturer, and he reckons I could use a belt sander to shave the letters off from the inside, because of the indentation on the letters. Alternatively, if that doesn't work, then I might have to sit down with a die grinder and do it all VERY carefully! If i slip up just once, it will ruin the whole thing
Then I would need to put a perspex sheet behind it, and seal it so its watertight. Then just run a couple of globes from the rear lights to it, so it comes on with the lights. If I angle the lights right, it should light up the entire sheet of perspex, if you all know how perspex reacts to light
Kind of hard to explain what I'm getting at, but if you use your imagination, I think it will be a worthwhile mod - would also give all of these used R32 rear bars a new lease on life! Can put all sorts of colours through it, or even use a multi-coloured neon with colour selector in the cabin.
It's bound to set one 32 apart from another, and that's what it's all about, in an age dominated by BN kits and Vertex bars. B)
I've got a few other crazy ideas on mucking around with 32s, if anyone cares to hear 'em...
Adrian.
