Hi Tom,

Have you tried JPC? You will need to also change the front head lights to GTR's as the grill bolts to this. I would also recommend you change the bonnet but you can always still have the old one cut if need be on the cheap.

If you can find a GTR bonnet grab it cos it's much lighter then the GTSt and is a good upgrade.

:pwned:

With all due respect, it's Tom's car, if he wants to do it then it's because he likes it. I doubt "everyone does it" will change his mind.

Let's be honest, nobody is being unique and original by owning any sort of Skyline...
