Has anyone.......

[P1E]

I've seen a lot of 300s with the '300ZX' lit up, but most are lit up in an aqua colour (from the factory). If I buy a 300ZX, I'll see if I can't put in a dark blue neon. And a separate control switch while I'm in there.

[Cyric]

hey Moschops is the skyline lit up all the time, or just when you pump the breaks? or maybe on with parkers?

im interested in this thread also...as i would like to do it as well. what we need is a step by step procedure with pics. Indicating what is what and how to do it. with things like this u need more than descriptions.

[Cyric]

ok here is my theory.... remove the plastic skyline part and cut out the skyline lettering with a hot knife... then lie it down on some grease proof paper and fill the cutouts with clear resin... wait for that to dry and then mount a fluro tube behind it... you can then use any color celephane you like to adjust the color...

perspex maybe

remove the black trim that sits over the boot lip (with the square cut out of the centre for the boot latch to click into) there should be about 5 clips holding this in, just yank upwards...

then you remove the grey trim boot lining thats underneath it, this will have a crap load of clips in it - just unscrew the centre bits of the clips with a phillips and pop the outer rims out...

there should be 4 bolts holding it in, 2 at either end, youll need a long ratchet to get in there... oh and there is also a little white clip in the centre of the panel, you'll need to use a flathead screwdriver to get that out, just press the little tabs in and the pull the panel out...

hope that makes sense, if not let me know and ill take some happy snaps for ya!

[Cyric]

me and fattdex are doing this to our 'lines on the weekend so we will make a tutorial with pictures and the like for everybody else....

step 1 is find yourself a series I [skyline] bar...

[Guest RedLineGTR]

nice good for something to do if your bored..

[ZERO]

SI skyline bar... yep thats done and done!

[Cyric]

ok now go get yourself some 280+ sand paper and sand off the silver from the lettering...

then get the paint code off your VIN plate and find a place that will make the paint (2pac) up fo ya in a pressure pack... you also need a base coat and clear to go over the top...

the 2pac in a can should keep u busy for a few days, its against OH&S to supply it so your gunna have to find somewhere dodgy....
