I just had to quote that bit, with the picture in it, because its a fucking awesome photo.

Damn man, that looks fantastic. Did you get the front spoiler from america perchance? Is it sitting on skyline rims?

Love it :).

cheers prozac. the mrs had a play with the photo darkened the clouds and brightend the car a bit. got the spoiler a couple of years ago from the same dude i just bought the other star off not too sure where it came from tho. yeh they gts-t rims. wanna get some gtr rims for the back. 9" wide give it the jap spec look.
