Both nice examples, reminds me of my grey r32, but voted for the white one cos thats the way i am going with my white one.

GTR RICH · 27th August 2007, 12:58 PM

i voted grey coz looks harder

,but gtr,s look better in white imo

, but loose the Gay wing

MarkMcQ · 27th August 2007, 01:22 PM

I prefer the grey too. Don't care for the bonnet on the white one, or the rear tea tray. And the canards look like a stuck-on afterthought.

I was at first dismayed that my GT-R dream turned out to be a gunmetal example, but now I couldn't be happier. it looks the bee's knees, it is the definitive R32 color (as midnight purple is for the R33, and bayside blue for the R34), it doesn't scream ricer, and it's elegant. do consider a set of clear or smoked side indicators though, I went with smoked - blends with the grey in my opinion:

When you steal your friends de-tango'd indicators + headlights, i'll choose yours!

I'll keep my N1 headlights thanks

I prefer them to the old-style projector jobbies.

Yours mate, I prefer subtle to "inyaface" anyday.

SB Performance · 27th August 2007, 09:32 PM

I prefer yours mate, was a fairly easy pick for me. I like your mates bonnet though.

no, you aren't the only one, as I prefer the original indicators. The only other possiblity are smoked ones, but it has to be just right as to blend with the gunmetal. I like the original look, like the wheel offset, just looks nice, tight, and aggressive.

A classic

Rain · 27th August 2007, 11:12 PM

I was only joking

it understandable with some cars why the owner would do it, its when i see a guy in a pick up truck that is too lazy to do it right, thats when its annoying.

KC, is that your troublesome R32? looks very shiny!!

I favor the clean factory lines/look of the grey godzilla. I also favor the original amber corners (smoked is hottt too)with those headlights fitted. The wheels really set the car off, I believe if you have an awd or rwd auto it is almost mandatory to have a nice lip on them. TE37's and LMGT4's are THE exception's though. Just my .02.

KB_S1 · 28th August 2007, 09:41 AM

Put your mates wheels on your car and it would look superb.

Nocturnal · 28th August 2007, 09:55 AM

Defo the grey one. The wheel suit it nice also... chrome/polish looks nice on a dark color. Its what a "street" GTR should look like!

The white one for some reason just don't look extreme "enough" to have that wing... Big GT wing seems to be something that only Supra and RX7 can pull off well.
