My guess is because I'm missing the rubber stoppers on the radiator support. I tried adjusting it yesterday, with no luck.

Is it even on the upper part of your hood where your windshield is? If not, you can always toss some thin washers up where the hood mounts to the body, I have seen that work in the past with my old Z32.

I did a weird way that I would not recommend. Best bet is to get some black nail polish and tiny brushes and paint each letter individually. Then fine tune the edges with a fine tip sharpie.

On to the pics..
Above pictures are before.

I know, I know... kinda looks ricey =\ but ehh I kind of personally like it. Haha.


Some action shots just for fun;




Rear passenger outer brake light housing is burnt out

Posted here a few pages back, here's where the car is at now.












^That was before I had a grill. GTR grill is now on it. No "professional" pictures taken yet. Will update when I get some.

& yes, they are replicas. But I can assure you that you will never find any size/offset the same ones I have in the U.S. No, they're NOT Rota Grids. Specs are 18x9.5 +18.

I don't have these on mine. Would the hood fit better and line up better with the body and bumper if I had them?

It looks like you have a gap between your hood and headlights like I've got. Someone said the latch is too high, thats the next thing I am going to try and adjust.
