Thanks man, I'm a pest when it comes to details, and i think an engine bay is a great place to show that. It's got a wire tuck/hose tuck/fuse box tuck/fuel line tuck/brake line tuck and I'm working on a brake booster tuck (manual brakes ftl) w/ a willwood proportional valve. From some opinions of the valve cover, people may think i have a ***** tuck, thinking about wrinkle red on this new setup. I also cut out the fender aprons and had a shop tub them/paint the whole bay/cover any unnecessary holes.



An old pic,

It's damn near brand new, $100 takes it.

Local hobby shops have them, ask for a transparent yellow paint. If you were local I'd just give you what's left of my can, have no use for it. & no thanks on the wheels, I want to do coils first.

Tell me about it man, the dust kills me along with the marks, I wash her at least twice a week and sometimes she's still dirty. Good challenge though.

Link doesn't work.

The only black IS300 with JP scaras I know is Solo's and it's been sold and crashed/parted out.

Just off the top of my head: JP scaras, Vertex enduro front bumper, fender flares and sides. TRD style rear spoiler, UGO roof spoiler.

Nice 240. And i'm with lllllllllll, my 240sx is my DD, but currently needs new motor.
