huge props to stew/stewart/johnny5/ghostface killah for the radio trim (UN BROKEN) and steering column trim.

full black interior (almost) in front of the rollcage. blang blang. grippin grain *****s. grippin grain.
shot of the ugly octopus NISMO PROFESSIONAL RACING GROUND SYSTEM.

Re: (EJ_ALLMOTA)
nice 
looks mismatched without the bolt on fender flares in back and the mahogany steering wheel does not fit with the flow of the car whatsoever, as is the case with the blue bulbs in the clear turn signals. Also why did you keep the rivets showing on the back half of the car (and why are the back panels riveted in...?)
but thats the beauty of it being YOUR car

haha, the blue bulbs are the sylvania ones that light up orange, *shrug* id like to do them up with LEDs sometime but i suck at that kind of stuff. the drivers side signal is kindof wierd anyway cause i had to notch it to fit over the power steering cooler.
the panels are actually on with machine screws not rivets, and its so i can take them on and off without too much work.

Re: a few updates to the ol nissan (lightsleeper)
yeah i guess the car has holes from the screws, but i mean they are filled with the screws so its not like it leaks. the body kit is an uras knockoff. thanks for the comments and criticisms guys

no wonder the fitment does not look up to par.
nice car nonetheless. </TD></TR></TABLE>
pending which "knockoff" company it is, it doesnt look like it fits all that bad. a real deal URAS is $$$, which in his case could be argued that he might afford it judging by the amount of money in his car, but he does events regularly and killing real deal URAS would just suck (but it would be baller haha). i'm not a fan of the typical "skirted/flared" drift style kit but it doesnt look bad.
as far as rear overfenders go, just about all of the people whose cars see track time, and the majority of those who have functional street cars rivet on. filling/molding isnt that hard, nor easy, but its like molding a front or rear bumper, something that huge is susceptible to cracks, and id rather see rivets.
