No I'm talking about the Coupe Valances for the Silvia S13 not the 180sx valances. they are completely different.

gunmetalr32 · 10-04-2011, 10:37 PM

Bings makes them. If I make them I would charge more than $175.

Yes I would have to get it completely straight. Blocking and primer till it's perfect. And then I can design it lower.. But when you get it back it will be ready for paint.

Chigga · 10-05-2011, 04:47 PM

Thanks for the valances! They "fit like a glove" coming from a professional. He did this car's paint and body (Helluva Rides : Post Archive)

This is when I first got it. Living in Hawaii, shipping would cost a lot and take awhile to arrive. Shipping cost is reasonable and it arrived in 5 days! It was nicely packaged with lots of bubble wrapping, should keep company for a few minutes. Behind the sticker is the hardware to install (sorry, didn't take a picture of it but comes with what he had posted)

He was amazed it was replicas. They were smooth as butter, no waves, and right curves. The material were FRP I believe. The minor gaps can be fixed with the 3M tape or glue. The metal brackets were spot on and great that he provided it. Pretty much no alterations needed and just install straight on.

In the pictures, little to no pressure were applied. And ignore the leg lol. All pictures were off my cell phone.
Passenger rear.

Driver rear.

Thanks again! and expect a bulk buy soon

And thanks for being a great communicater too.

gunmetalr32 · 10-05-2011, 08:54 PM

Awesome... Thanks for doing a review. Mine are getting painted as well .. Can't wait to see your car painted and finished

gunmetalr32 · 10-05-2011, 10:38 PM

THESE ARE NOT MY VALANCES

Making ones that dont fit like complete obliterated ass could be profitable though.

I painted my kouki a year ago. All I needed to complete my car was the valances and a front lip

Here is a pix my friend took

It would of looked better if I had valances

As of right now.. The S13 front lip was just a thought from another member.

But the S13 coupe valances I want to do now.

Kouki life.

Hey Adrian,

I just picked up my valances at the post office today. They arrived on 5 Oct, but I was hungover, so I didn't hear the door bell. They look fantastic, from what I can tell so far. I won't be able to put them on until November/December though because of school and vacation, but I will post pictures up as soon as I get them done.

Just a note to all other people interested. He has made all the mounting brackets and included all the mounting hardware, so it's not necessary to get any additional parts, like the Vanquish replicas.

I'll keep you posted. Again, thanks for all your hard work!
