Yah... I bought a Body Kit, and I got it a few days ago...
Its nothin to really scream about cuz its not an exreme looking kit. Its just my style... Simple, and curvey... Its an Erebuni Kit... Someone on the site has the exact same kit, and matter of fact, they have a white convertile too! Haha! Thats funny... But I forgot who's it is... But yeah, if you know them, my car will look exactly like that... Except mine will have a wing... and it wont be lowered... But yeah... When I oredeed the kit, I saw somewhere that for this kit that Intsllation on a GT or Convertible model will require slight modification... Its true.... The front fender of the kit is gonna havta be shaved down an inch and a half and shaped to fit perfectly... The Side Skirts fit alright, excpet one side skirt is gona be shaved down because for some reason, thebottom inside of it curls upward... That needs to go or it wont fit on my car.. Then the back bumper... Does not fit what so ever Grrr! This is whats gona make this a project.... The flipin back fender... Its too short! No I know the kit is originally suppose to fit an ST, but damn.. this is no slight modification... Me and my dad we're thinkin on how to get it to fit, and we're gonna hava to customize in order to get it to fit! Joy! Or take the back fender to the Body Shop to deal with... But yeah... This kit is pretty weird... No bolting at all... Just molding pretty much... But yeah... How we're gonna do it, Im not too sure... But once weget n idea I'll let yall know!

haha Haha I'll proabbaly will be able to make the meets next year, I'll be 18.. So I'll have a little more slack to be able to make to some of the meets An with my new look on my car, I really wanna go!
The Kit shouldn't take forever to put on... Everything pretty much fits all except for the back bumper... Im not sure how this is gonna work, but my dad has an idea for it to fit... But one idea is to cut the bumper in peices and re-fiberglass them together and make it longer... I hae no clue ow its gonna be done, but my dad see's how it could work... He's done stuff like this before back in the day I guess, but he said he neds to look at it more to see if it could work... My idea was to just do the front and side skirts, then take the back bumper in to a body shop to be fitted properly... Then we can have the car back all fitting properly then we can do the painting.. LOL I'd sure sleep better at night if we did that... But we'll see... I dont really like the idea of chopping up the back bumper and strecthing it out ont the car... *Sigh* I want my kit on so bad... Its gonna be awhile... Ugh! It looks so cool! LOL This post has been edited by CelicaBuddy: Aug 4, 2005 - 2:00 PM -------------------- 2003 Nissan Murano SE |
