Default Check out this Aristo from Club Aristo

Full Aimgain kit (I know some of you guys have been wondering what this kit looks like on an actual car). His wheels are 19x9 +24 up front and 20x10 +27 in the back! Like WHOA!



Wald replacement trunk



Custom wide fenders (Artisan Spirits lookalike)



And this is the cool part! Full LED taillights conversion!!! (from before he did a full respray into that chameleon purple color. It used to be alpine silver like me! LIKE WHOA x2!!!)

Like the tail light conversion, but not feeling the rest if the ride. I almost feel like they've removed too many of the styling cues of the Aristo.

I like the trunk replacement, but a bit too expensive to my taste ...

The LED taillights are great! i also guess that it is easier to modify the old style than the 01+ ones.

Good eye, guys! It is in fact the real aimgain kit. Except that he removed the foglamps that came with the kit and custom-moulded stock foglamps from the R33 skyline GTR (according to what he said on the site). A lot of custom stuff done there, some are quite disagreeable (I don't like the trunk either, but hey, at least we know Wald makes a trunk for us), but you gotta give respect to the amount of work that went into it.

That's all the pics I have.

I've always liked the trunk. Just too rich for my blood though.
