Hi all,
Since selling my 350z about a year ago I've been on the hunt for another GT4. Well around 6 months ago I found one in red which I bought. A '94 import model with a freshly rebuilt engine and pretty much standard:

Loads of Japanese and UK history

A good base to start my project.

So, the first post of call was to get some projector headlights for the Four. I ordered some from Japan and waited (im)patiently for 4 weeks.

While I had the bumper of I decided to remove the grills, and then give them a good coat of plastidip to make it look as good as new :

While I was at it, I plastidipped the scuttle panel too :

Thank mate
I'm also using cardip as well as plastidip, seems to be just as good but more readily available as plastidip.
