Quick Intro, My name is David. I've own 4 different 240sx but haven't been able to build because something always get in the way... This is my 2nd attempt on building one. The 3rd one I had wasnt in good shape to many rust areas to fix so I sold it. I recently bought the 4th rust free shell on Oct 1 10, So far I've been lucky enough not to pay over $500 for any of the 240sx I've own, here's a couple of Pic's so far on the progress

Nice man, I didn't realize you had an account on here!

Heck, if you are going to have a build thread with write-up, then I'll give a you heck of a deal on the Second Skin. Just make a good write-up on the install with pictures in this thread. And of course whore my name a little in the process... which it looks like you already have;)

Good luck with the build... obviously we'll be in touch.

Rear Bumper/Support Removal for those wondering how to !!

RH Duct-drafter outlet needs to be taken out to remove the lower 10mm nut for removal of rear bumper, LH nuts are easier to remove (3 nuts each side of bumper)

4 Bolts connected to the rear support bar can be access by removing rubber plugs

After removing the the complete rear unit you need to remove 8 10mm nuts from the upper bumper/support and 6 bolts on the lower side to separate the bumper and support.
