I love that wheel sim. I don't know if you've seen my thread recently but I've contacts a us company that makes some pretty cool custom wheels as well. It's not JDM but send me a message if you're interested.

finally got my lugs :D

https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.n...28888891_n.jpg

these lugs are beauties.... definitely worth every penny in my book ;) never took so damn long installing lug nuts in my entire life a total of 1.5 hours carefully and meticulously putting them one by one greasing the inside as i put them on my z..... i went ahead and changed out the REVO caps to the color red REVO caps :tup: id like to note that even if they are labeled red on the project kics site they are actually like a maroon or dark red... i was kinda surprised when i first opened them but it made sense that the hue of the darker red blends much better with the neo chrome burn finish rather than a straight up bright red color.... but i still love them :tup: they look great on my WORK kiwami's :happydance: ill post a pic tomorrow with them on my rims... its already to dark to take pics tonight so ill take some tomorow

Looks good Jon! Gonna gold plate them now? :stirthepot:

Amuse370z 04-25-2014 01:54 PM
Nice, I was going to get them for my TE37SLs.

Im not sure whether the red would match the candy red sticker on the spokes though, glad you like them!

http://img05.shop-pro.jp/PA01164/938...20120430112957

that two and a half month is gonna kill me on the wheel.... :shakes head:

So how much is this wheel and where could one get it?

Holy crap. Carbon Fiber Element can hook you up for a whole lot less money.

my man tony does awesome work :tup: i actually had a carbon fiber element wheel in red kevlar.... i sold it... i asked him if he could do the padded and add the extra shape to our steering wheels but he said he couldn't (those little details always get me and its really what its about to me:icon17:) so i guess i didn't really have a choice.....

Gotcha. I do like the shape of that wheel. Would definitely take a lot of "sculpting".

3 month lead time :shakes head: im thinking about ordering next..... but a pair of JDM taillights popped up so im torn wether i pick those up first then save again or pull the trigger on the steering wheel and try to get the tails as well (heck of a deal on them)

well today was a great day :tup: i put in the order for the daytona steering wheel in twill carbon and leather with red stitching like the picture above... i absolutely cannot wait :happydance: also put a deposit on these taillights so i can pick them up by the end of may :tup: im super stoked... my plan for the taillights is to do a black outline like i did with my oem red taillights and then smoke them lightly should look sick....

konsta 04-27-2014 06:43 AM
can't wait to see those tail lights on your car ! gonna look awesome!

Did you send them your steering wheel, or buy a new one?

Quoted from the website.

"This is a trade in process so it will require shipping of the original steering wheel to Japan or we can purchase a new steering wheel from Nissan for you so there is no downtime. *Shipping costs back and forth are not included in the price."

simota1 04-27-2014 03:22 PM
since i know the owner of daytona racing and he really trusts me im lucky enough to not send my steering wheel first... they'll send me theirs first then ill send mine back after i receive and install theirs

yes do a slight tint on the reverse like my tail right now and black outline as well... leave the gun metal gray area exposed... should look pretty good as i imagine it in my mind :icon17: i hope

simota1 05-09-2014 07:00 AM
