Default Food for thought...

I thought I would share these pics with you guys...











Interested to hear what you think? I'm sure it's not for everyone.

Cheers,

Brendan

I think the color is really nice that's for sure. Just the fact that is reflective is not my cup of tea.

Are you getting anything for the DRL? I think I'll be getting the ones from evo-r.

Default Reflective Tape

I completely understand your reservations about the tape. Keep in mind it's impossible to take an accurate picture of it. It's something you need to see in person. It's really just the orange with some POP when light hits it at different angles.

Below are the YouTube videos that sold me on the idea. Gives a slightly better representation of what the end product's capable of...

Orange:

This one has a bunch of different colours, including the red which looks sick too:

I stayed with orange because of the interior. Keep in mind it's just tape and you can peel it off easily.

Regarding the DRL's, my body shop guy did some mesh work and painted everything black. If there is a solution that does not cost $2,000, I'm all ears.

Shout out to Joe at ZSpeed for hooking me up with the parts!

Cheers,

Brendan

Did you see the evo-r DRL for the Nismo Kit? They are about to release them... Should go for around 320 and they look alright. Should look up the thread here in case you are interested.

That's cool. I take it it's 320 for the pair and you need to get them painted?

I believe they haven't released the DRL Kit... They don't even have pricing yet. It actually looks like evo-r will release something sooner.

i used the stock under shroud, just made some cut outs so the front would bend easier since it's 1.5" lower. i did buy the nismo fender liners.




i also picked up this nismo emblem from the dealership. it was like 15 dollars. the holes didn't line up but i just made a hole for them.
it looks pretty close to the real one that's 100 dollars more.
i bolted it on. but i guess you can cut out the mounting bosses and use double sided tape.
