    i test fit the gtr rear bumper with nismo spats, and gtr taillights. looks crazy imo. as of right now everything has been test fitted except the rear over fenders.



    with the help of photoshop i can see what it will look like once its painted.

    Usually i think it's a shame to see another GTS converted with a GTR kit, cause those are beautiful as well.

    but i can't deny it looks mean as fuck

    really interested to see how the rest of the conversion goes, keep it up!

    Yes i have the clear bumper signal lights and clear side markers. right now just test fitted the parts so i didnt install any lights yet.
    GTR nismo bumper was the best decision i made with this car, but gonna take A LOT of work to get everything installed properly

    Wet sanded them with 800 grit wet sand paper till the lights looked white and then i sprayed them with gloss clear coat

    big update
    today i was in the garage all day, installed some more GTR goodies on the car.



    to get the fenders off i had to take off the bumper, headlights and almost the doors.



    it was mostly zip tied on to just test fit, but the fitment was actually pretty good, so i put the other one on and started assembling the front end. this is how it turned out.





    the GTR has a different hood with the nose cut off so im not able to close my hood with the stock hood

    a couple days ago someone commented saying i should put a GTR front bumper on the car... so i did. i actually have the whole GTR kit including:
    nismo front bumper
    rear bumper
    side skirts
    front fenders
    rear overfenders
    taillights
    nismo side skirts and rear bumper skirts

    im starting school in 2 weeks and im studying auto body repair, so i thought now would be the perfect time to start the conversion!
    today i test fit the front bumper.


    the bumper wouldnt fit because my rebar has 2 bumps on the bottom... but i didnt quit becuase of that. i thought maybe i should just remove the rebar... but no, i called in my brother and he cut those bumps off.






    after that the bumper slid right in. i didnt bolt it in or anything, just zip tied it on temporarily for some pictures.



    this picture here shows you just how much wider the GTR is then the GTT.



    and this is what the bumper looks like on the car!
    ps. plastidipped one side of the cars rims black and im kinda liking the blacked out look better then the gold. (its just temporary tho).

    lots more updates to come!

    I think if you wanted the rear red fog light you should have bought the proper one or left the clear one as is. The GTR one still looks different.

    Also to people who suggest the RB26 conversion, the RB25DET neo is an amazing engine. You wouldn't want to swap it out for an RB26, you may as well buy a full GTR.

    And lastly I think the wheels should have been left silver too.

    Sorry to sound so negatively, but you should keep it clean and simple.
    Good thing he Plasti dipped the wheels so he can peel the gold off if he gets bored lol
