I feel sorry for the OP, a misguided 17 yr old with only 3 posts, but all the reply the comments are fully expected

Paint that lip, the grill frame, and replace the "GT-R" with the mt fuji and you'll have some nice clean mods.

OP if you really can't afford the ionic eyelids (I know its like $90, i thought they were like $10-15 myself until i saw the prices), then maybe try bluebatmobile. He sells the vinyl type of the eyelids for i think like $15? Something like that

Checkout bluebatmobile.net

Here's how it looks


won't flame you since im also a teen whos "ballin on a budget". Do what I said above and you'll have a nice clean G.

To me, those look too long. I'd like them from the top interior of the hood, to the upper portion of the bottom. Hood corner to hood corner.

I think BlueBatmobiles eyelids look silly as well... Ionics' eyelids are top notch and the best route, in my opinion. I'll grab a picture in a sec...

Those look very nice. From the pictures the bluebat doesn't look too bad, but a sticker is definitely no competition for the legit built eye lid.

those saying it's cause he's 17 are retards, I'm 16 and my car isn't riced out at all. Age isn't relevant in this situation some of the 50 year olds on here have riced out cars as well.

That's because you've been on the forums long enough to take note of the many clean cars here on the site, thus being able to weed out the ricer or less attractive cheap mods

Age doesn't matter at all, its just how long you've been around to see what good and whats bad. I just turned 19 a few months ago.. pretty young i guess

I was never really into riced out cars & cutting corners, I've always been a believer of quality like right now I have an emblemless grill that I did with bondo & I got it pro painted OB metallic but just because I know that's not the best way to do it I'm getting a new one made with plastic weld & metal reinforcement bars & also painted OB. I'd rather mod slow & do it right then mod fast & cut corners. I could have some knock off wheels but I got oem 18's because I'd rather rock oem's than knock off's and when I have the money I might get some real wheels but before I do that I need to get coils, camber kits F/R & do fender work. I won't just slap on some wheels on **** springs with oem shocks. This kid just has bad taste it has nothing to do with his age.

No no, age is usually a factor. Some of you are just rare exceptions. No need to develop a superiority complex.
