I'm in two minds about whether these will look any good on a white BNR32.

I'm appealing to your advice.

Possible Pros

* Japanese made

* Eliminates the orange contrast > cleaner look from a distance

Possible Cons

* Tacky looking

* Lens is not ribbed like the headlight lens > misfit, up close and personal

Thoughts?

depends if you want the authentic look Tez

any pics in the white 32 thread with clears to compare?

I run those clears ^ on my R32GTR (modernizes) :)

I do have a set of brand new smoked Dspeeds with the ribs in the lens that I'd let go to you for half price.

They look better with the N1 headlights over the projector type.

You could also go the clear dspeeds with ribs ($400+) RHDjapan

Thanks for feedback Richard. Those smoked Dspeeds with the ribbing sound good! (Sounds like smoked ribs huh?)

I'd always keep the original amber lenses for authenticity (wow 5 syllables).

Still weighing up...

Well from another R32 owning Richard: No. Just no.

i was gonna post that pic of my car to show how the clear dspeeds look, guess you guys beat me to it LOL
Personally the only set I would ever run are the ones above, the match up with the stock head lights perfectly and almost looks oem.

The JJR clear ones come with the black surround. Unlike the Japanese ones from RHD in your first post.

Dspeeds also come with the silver surround but easy to paint black

Here are the smoked JJR and Dspeeds to compare (bad pic but you get the idea)

Note* the JJR set have a more solid tab for the screw at the top than Dspeeds (so be careful when installing not to snap off)

and a close up of the dpseed clears

DSpeeds look the best then I'm thinking.

Many thanks Richard, Anthony and Ravi.

      Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.

      I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
