  1. Hey guys, since I'm on holiays at the moment, I'll have time to wrap things for people, so if anyone needs things wrapped, shoot me a PM or gimme a call
  2. Hey guys, Since some of you liked my front lip DIY, I thought I'll post up another DIY that I did tonight. This time is my rear reverse light, spent about 3 hours on this. Since I changed my right reverse light for a fog light, I've notice I can barely see when I'm reversing during night time, as I'm only left with one light, so I thought I'd brighten things up with 96 LEDs Luckily, I found myself a pair of 2nd hand reverse lights to stuff around with. Here's some pics of the process: I opened up the reverse light housing Connected two 48 LED panels together Connected the T10 end to the plug Made a surround/backing for the LED panels (yes it's a half dodgy job lol) Because I wanted white light, not yellow light, I thought I'd try and clean the lens a bit lol. Started to wet sand it with 1200 Finished it off with 2000 and a polish and BAM! The crap is off. Put the brand new looking lens back on Due to the time now, I haven't had a chance to put it back onto the car. But I don't think I'll convert my rear fog light to LED, as it's definitely gonna blind people behind me lol.
  3. I guess if you can meet me somewhere near me, I'll take the trolley jack
  4. If you are in Brisbane, I was actually up there a month ago Why don't you just try it yourself?
  5. From my experience with buying things through Jap Warehouse, the guys there are pretty honest, good people, it was good to deal with them.
  6. Isn't your car low enough with that Z-tune lip? Haha cheeers It does say "universal".... Haha yeah, I tried bunnings too xD I had a browse in their catalogue, didn't see anything close to what I want. They must have more at the stores? Any chance they are called Baileys Channel? lol
  7. Hey guys, My car got backed into yesterday and it left chipped a bit of paint on my front bar and I just want to find someone to touch it up. I've bought some touch up paint before and tried it and it looks dodgy lol. Am looking for someone that comes to your place and fixes it. Any recommendations? Cheers
  8. Oh hey bro Haha yeah, I wanna upgrade to Gias 2 (only for quick release), maybe share a pair with me?
  9. I might have some for sale in a week or so, will let you know
  10. It's good to see 15 unique hits in the last 15mins
  11. Looks good. What brand is it?
  12. The seats do sit lower, a fair bit actually. And also maybe I got lower rails too. I know for a fact that genuine Recaro SR3 rails will fit the Gias, as I have one in my car with the Recaro rails.
  13. Anyone in Melbourne wanna go half in carbon Gias 2? Might buy it just because of the quick release lol
  14. Was kinda considering it lol
  15. Spotted Kris at about 8pm last might on Clayton Rd heading to Mordialloc?
  16. Haha nice But all in all, this $25 garage door seal does give a total new look to the car, it just makes it look a lot more tougher, although the lip itself is pretty thin, but it does make a massive difference. Will probably get better pics sometime next week
  17. I just used a strong double sided tape, not even 3M, and it is definitely not coming off lol. But I think the Australian sun might cause it to go hard over time and eventually crack, but for $25 per pop, meh lol
  18. Did you use the same stuff Paul?
  19. Haha thanks guys Just a quick update, after a 50km drive tonight, and after a high pressure rinse, the lips are all intact
  20. Yeah, not bad for $25 and 30mins of my life
  21. Haha yeah, my weathershields are ONLY held on by double sided tape. 3M makes some strong stuff... You pay for quality. You also gotta understand that this stuff, is as light as feather, and it's a bit flexible, so I'd say some strong tape will be fine. I'm going out now for a drive, we'll let you's know if I come home with my lip or not haha.
  22. I made a thread about it. It's here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/367338-diy-universal-lip/
  23. Just installed some genuine bosch factory fog lights and a diy lip xD
