Where did you get the clear lens? I've been looking and can't find any.

docaam · 11-17-2012, 01:04 PM

You can get it either from Klearz guy in califonia make it custom or from Australia

Some more work done almost done, hopefully will take it for carpet tomorrow

Went with Toyota Celica Fender mirrors as opposed to Datsun which usually people use, like the length of these and the angle. Painted the stalk black. Front bumper, anfront grill also painted same black installed.

Removed the stock hood lock and installed these pin ones.

Removed the CF spoiler I felt was slightly bigger will check later, tailights were done as well

Center console parts ready as well

Audio headunit with brakcets

HKS Boost controller

Gauges, toggle switches and starter button, LEDs to go in

Meters are a bit tilted towards drivers side

AC vent and stock map light

Seats were installed as well, didnt need any bracket were bolt on stock rails just holes were widened

Stop buying all the parts I want! I was just about to place a order on those fender mirrors too. Are they metal or plastic?

Mr&Mrs · 11-19-2012, 03:26 AM

Haha haven't bought anything recently these I got maybe 6 months back. These are plastic not metal. You can get it for cheaper from Thialand.

Z34drifty · 11-20-2012, 10:35 PM

Plastic...I wish I could find metal ones. Aren't they 200ish from Thailand? I think I'll just go buy them in person when I go to Thailand haha. Any updates on the car?

But they are quiet good, check you might be able to get these for 150ish. I doubt metal ones will be that much.

Sent the car yesterday to the interior shop to do a custom carpet work, door panels in leather/lacantara and migt wrap the dash in alcantara. Just some phone pics after it was washed to go, paint job looks good considering its not polished yet.

Z34drifty · 11-21-2012, 01:04 AM

The paint looks real nice man. Really really making me want to repaint mine, there are some parts that are bothering me. You make me want to spend the money I don't have. -_- lol

Mr&Mrs · 11-21-2012, 06:28 AM

Doc it looks amazing! Are you putting anything on the fenders to make them stick out a little more?
