not sure on a body kit not too much to choose from here and it cost so much in frieght from the us

im thinking about paiting the bonnet the same as my avitar

There's cheap greddy front bar on ebay which will really set it off well. But I'd go with painting the bonnet too, just to make a more subtle statement.

CF vented bonnets on a stock car is like granny panties on a stripper....they function the same but just doesn't look right. no offense mate, but if you had an aftermarket bumper like in your avatar...that will really look pimpin.

I just don't see what's the point of buying the Carbon Fibre bonnet and Painting it. Could have just bought the FRP bonnet and painted it. I just think it's a pity to paint the quality work of Top Secret Bonnet (i'm guessing this is the Genuine one).

But it is just my 2 cents.

    • Not much. It's barely more than an hour's labour. So that-ish plus a boot, clamp strap, some grease.   But, being an R32 GTR, when it is up in the air and the driveshaft is out, about $9k worth of other problems will become visible.
    • Yes, as above. The welding is an easy enough job. Proper reupholstering, perhaps less so. These, and pretty much all seats of the same era (and probably still) rely on molded foam parts to make the shapes. That foam is the yellow detritus visible in the photos. And it is difficult to replicate. I didn't want the pain, so went aftermarket seats instead. But for "saving a classic".... it's probably worth the kidney and left nut that a trimmer will want to redo them.
    • Way too accurate.... source: got flogged by an unsuspecting i30N last night... Super tidy looking 32 though, hopefully you find the time and funds to get it back on the road and enjoy it again!
    • Source: This thread, and the thread this thread spawned from. Alternative take: Is heat actually an issue for the use case of this vehicle? I wonder if it actually would be. Nekminit
    • Considering the price of GTR stuff now the answer is yes. That's a straight forward TIG or even MIG job. I'd put extra tubing inside, for extra strength and weld it up. Then use the spare seat as an example to get the bolster rails in the correct position and the re-apolster. If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for the pair as they are?
