Origin kit, blinker opinions before dremmeling - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

well i'm just test fitting the turn signals into the kit and what do you know, no holes in the kit. here's the pics:
Yes it it primered, and no it will not go on without matching paint to the rest of the vehicle.

so the options are:
1. dremel a slot into the kit and pray that the light lines up perfectly with the line of the bumper
2. dremel off the tab, and dremel off a fin that is blocking off a place to use a second screw that i could use as a second attatch point.

anyone work with Origin stuff before? I heard that the fitment was great, but each piece i have is missing 3/4 of the mounting screw holes according to the FSM that i double checked today. so i'm going to go crazy hanging and drilling the thing anyways.....

Go with #2.

and anyone want to give me a clue how to hang the sideskirts? those have 0 pre drilled holes so i am gong to start with by haveing a blind guy throw a dart at the sideskirt and call that the first attachment location.

but i was thinking that #2 would have the cleanist end results also myself.

drill holes and screw in
inside wheel wells areas
and under door sill

i only did on wheel wells, ziptied on
easy removal when iput the car onthe lift

I hate pre-drilled holes. Like dorifto said drill it in the wheel wells, but drill the skirt first, then offset the one on the car a little so the ziptie pulls the side skirt in more.
