i have a 4 door R34, and the side skirting / stickers need replaceing (i have attachd a photo)

does any1n know of any body shops in melbourne where these are done, or any websites i can order from to do them myself (would prefer a body shop)

thanks guys

those are your B pillers and yeah there are a few things you can do but sorry to say none of them involve a body shop and the reason is because its just way too easy to just do your self :-)

anyway the things you can do are

1) buy the nismo b pillar garnish. though im not sure if they do 4 door. or you can look for another brand of b pillar garnishes on ebay

2) buy some 3m Di-Noc which is like a carbon look textured vinyl that you can put on yourself. (its pretty easy) you can either google for it or you can buy some from either charles on this forum (melbourne) or myself (sydney)

3) if your in sydney i can supply and install for you just PM me.

if you buy yourself and need help i can give you some instructions

They're just stickers. It was a dealer-option for the R34 sedans - by this age they've almost all perished or become damaged.

You basically have a few options:

a) Remove the stickers (and try not to damage the paint underneath in the process)

b) Remove the stickers and re-apply some other sort of garnish - most people use 3M DI-NOC CF-look finish

c) Remove the stickers and try and source some of the after-market carbon-look coverings which double-side on (I've only seen these sold once or twice in the 4-5 years of R34 sedan ownership - pretty rare).

Personally I went with option (b) on my R34 sedan.

Be aware that the pillar-garnish on sedans and coupes is quite different. The nismo carbon garnish was only ever made/sold for the coupes.
