well here are some new stuff I got for my car...
S14 Silvia Trunklid :
I used it because my old one is chipped to hell and the silvia k's trunklid has the right holes (everything matches).
Am I going to reapaint the trunk? NO, i have more parts I want to swap on, so it'll <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>. pure rice for the next couple of months.
(there's your answer to why it's blue).
Or I can say that's my theme
Also got the Nismo Lower arm bar:
supposed to stiffen up chassis, and improve handling, car is a bit nimber around the corners, takes less effort to steer too.
If you want prices on this kinda stuff (or if you are tempted to ask how much I paid for it) go to www.jspec.com for the most up to date pricing <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

yep, and if you also notice, there are plates welded onto the brackets on the underside as opposed to nothing on the stock pieces. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I've never even heard of that lower arm bar? Where did you get it? do they make it for the S13? What does it actually stiffen? how hard was the install?
btw.. love the wing.. trunk looks a little scary.. but what can you do. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

NO. I can leave it.
No point in painting it and having it sanded down again to color blend/match.
Of course the trunk scary, it was attached with the wing, so I put it all on <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> The transformation to the S14 m/c look (97-98's) is beginning. hehe

It further stiffens the chassis, Both the tension rods and sway bars have connection point (they bolt onto) this brace/bar. I got it at jspec.com and they are avaliable for s13's. Sam's going to put them on his s13

Love the new spoiler. The trunk actually doesn't look that bad. Certainly not bad enough that i'd be itching to get it painted. My new fender, on the other hand, is black with rainbow sparkles in it, lol.
btw, you'll have to post a review of that bar.
