New wheels and sticker removal - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

Hi,

Into my 3rd month of ownership and all I have done so far is to remove some stickers and tonight fitted some new wheels, Axis 19 x 9.5.

Here are some before and after pictures. Sorry not very good shots as was in a bit of a hurry.

When I bought

What a difference!

Really nice looking car, those Axis really suit the 33

hodgie · 5th July 2006, 09:43 PM

I`ve got to say that i really do prefer the car without the stickers. Remove the other ones as well.

tim b · 5th July 2006, 09:48 PM

Yep, good choice, I'm liking those new wheels. They certainly suit the car, (and are much easier to clean too

).

Great car , has a real nice JDM look. Love the bonnet

hodgie · 5th July 2006, 10:12 PM

If im not wrong, is this Mick Begleys old car. (he likes his stickers

)

Yes it is Mick's old car.

The only stickers left on it are on the bumper and bonnet.

I want to change the bumper (as there is a bit of damage), but that will be next months expense.

Thanks for the comments, here is a "better" shot of the bonnet.

I am not sure what design the bonnet is, all Mick's work. I do plan to keep the sticker on the bonnet as it adds a little colour, and leaves a little bit of Mick on the car.

Bonnet could be made by TBO I think

MADsteve · 6th July 2006, 07:07 AM

what a transformation

The Axis's really set the car off. Looking good.

RIPPMODS · 6th July 2006, 08:01 AM

Wow these cars have the ability to go from JDM to tuner style and then to up scale exotic with such ease... I love it....

good choice
