Hi Guys,

anyone want a carbon fibre boot lid for their R35 GTR. Happy to sell at cost.

I bought this from hong kong from Carbon Stone. Just has just arrived and it is all timber boxed up ready to ship back out to someone who would like it.

It is surplus to my needs, as i mounted my new wing directly to the OEM lid.

pic here is from carbon stones web site.

my lid was ordered with mounting holes for hinge only and no holes for the wing so you can add any wing you like.

My costs were $1494. But i would take offers over $1000. For those thinking of changing there wing i thought it would be easier to change the wing than swap boot lids. I was wrong. The OEM wing had to come off in 3 parts as it is held onto the OEM boot with the screws that we can see but also clips and adhesive. This makes it a difficult and time consuming task to change wings. Also removes OEM colour coded stickers, which i'm still trying to find from Nissan. So to refit the OEM wing will be a PITA. It cost me $800 at the shop to remove OEM and install the aeromotions wing. So swapping boots with wing installed starts looking like an attractive proposition. If only i knew.

If anyone is keen i can open the crate and take actual photos. Im sure it looks better in real life.

The new feet on the R2 wing are optional and don't have to be mounted with the uprights. Therefore producing a cleaner line and finish. I asked about any extra reinforcement required for the R2 wing and it seems that it is only required for the S2.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
