Default Gauging interests? 9/18 Nismo lip installation and more...

Hi,

For those of you who can't make it to PGA...

I've received my nismo front lip and hopefully it will be painted by this Wed...

I will be installing it at Car Toyz this Sat and was curious if anyone is interested in stopping by.... hangiong out, bbq, or just ck out all of Chad's toyz!

The Nismo lip do not use double sided tape and have to drill several holes in the bumper...

This should be fun!! Someone take a pic of me drilling my CAR....

Most likely early afternoon....

I just finished re-mounting my v1 after Chad laughed at my ghetto install..... now it looks perfect haning off the head liner!! after a few glasses of wine!!

Yeah, if you are interested in how the front bumper comes off, drilling on plastic, want to install anything and want some professional advice (not from me...)

Feel free to drop by!! Car toyz is in Fremont, 880 and automall exit.... if you need direction, feel free to PM me and find out the latest special deals!!!$$$

I just talked to Chad and he says the lip is going to need some more work before it is put on. Let me know when you guys are going to put it on so I can come and check out the shop. Chad said someone has the clear reflector strip? I'd like to replace it with the orange one instead of leaving the gap open but I haven't found anyone that sells them.

Can you give me a link to the page it's for sale on? Those plastic covers go around the outside of the headlight. There all over EBay and there very ugly.
