Lambo doors.

I never thought anyone would actually think they look good on anything but a Lambo - is it too late to add the option? lmao!

Of course on a Lambo they look cool and I hate to admit they would make putting the Skyline in one of the garages much easier too

Maybe I should loose weight...

The perfect skyline in my opinion would be R32 handling, R33 styling and R34 interior, all in midnight purple with bronze TE37's.

Pretty, with presence!!

I can do that, but in Deep Marine Blue - once I've got my MFD fitted.

To each his own indeed. But ride height can really mess it up. Just like the same way two identical cars can look so different with wheel choice, two identical cars, wheels and all with one sitting nice & one too low or too high throws eveything out IMHO.

Perfection to me is, be it R32 R33 or R34, is white stock body (Nismo front bumper on the 34) w/ either bronze Volk Racing TE37's or Nismo GTLM4's.

those wheels are too chavy!!!! you should give them to me to get rid of it for you

gices · 28th September 2008, 07:16 AM

To make it look shining sweet is difficult but to spoil it you can make a lot of things ..
Like a huge spoiler with mismatching color streams on it ...
Wrong choice of tyres ...
Poor choice of faint paints etc,.

Sub Boy · 28th September 2008, 09:40 AM

See me, I would want the handling And 4wd control of the R34, The weight of the R32.....And pretty much nothing from the R33....

Sub Boy · 28th September 2008, 11:41 AM

....But back on subject, The wheels look great, just need some big ass brakes behind them!

....Loving the power and look of my F40 calipers and split rotors on mine!

I missed the car that has been posted in the first post of this page ...
I really think the tyres are not at all suiting the model and the rare should have been a bit more flat towards the bottom ...
