once again, the pics don't do the car justice...sorry...the spoiler has been chopped down and painted black ends...cuz the length was too dang long before....it looks better shorter like that....and aluminum locknuts instead of black nylon ones...
it won't look as good as one of BC's...lol...cuz i run it outside, and it has actually been run into by my friends white skyline, cuz he can't drive, hehe, but everyone makes mistakes. no real damage on mine yet though,
please suggest something if you can think of anything to improve...

Not sure you could improve it, it looks dang good now. Paint the details and you're set!
I also find myself chopping the spoilers, they are just too high.

Thats a great looking skyline. You did a great job masking. What brand of paint did you use?

That's a nice color! I think it'd be cool to paint the spoiler ends the body blue color instead of black, but that's just me.

actually, i think there are new pics up, but anyways, i already have painted the black spoiler on the ends with the blue and it looks a lot better, as well as cutting the spoiler down to make it look a heck of a lot better
ps...yeah i'm using the skid plate, couldn't go without it, seeing how i'm a freak about scratches...

Howdy,
Just wondering what are the skid plates you are talking about. My Sky is all chipped up in the front from running outside. Skid plates would help this I would think. Well Thanks. Great looking cat by the way. Later
