First off I wouldn't describe the R as good looking. Most people would use the word ugly, I like to use the word purposeful.

Smooth boots are shite, they are the kind of thing I NEARLY did to my previous car (saxo :oops: :lol: :cry: :cry: ) but rejected it even then as Chav and shite :roll:

I just really think it looks barryboy and crap, I'm all for resprays - as you can probably tell :lol: but not body modifications like that to the R - I much prefer the outside standard.

At the end of the day though its your car, you just asked for opinions so you got it! ;)

I got rid of the wiper on mine when i had it resprayed, But only because i think the rear wiper on the gti-r is a compleat waste of time as it cleans f.oo.k all :roll: , But I think as the other's do about a de-plated tailgate, it looks very maxpower :roll: :cry: .

You also see so many other cars going around with it done that it's hardly a very inventive mod is it :roll: :!: .

your be after a set of lambo doors next :roll: :shock: .

well if its booked in and getting done as we speak then you obviously werent interested in opinions or you would have asked before! :lol: best bet is to get it done then post up some pics - at the end of the day it may not look too bad. not something i would do myself as i actually like the way my car looks from the back

yes i recently saw one at boxhill a white PUlsar (wannabe) not a real R!! he had it done it reminded me of a mk2 Twin cam didnt look good at all dont really recommend however if u want to be different then by all means go for it remember its your motor and what u do with it!!!!! :wink:
 
Don't do it!

Apart from anything, it'll de-value your R. Let's face it; they're depreciating quick enough as it is lately without doing batty modifications to them :shock:

May as well give him a sign that says kick me.

you have to look at a car overall from a distance before you decide to do something like that. Every one has their own taste and style...but when you look at an R from most angles, there are lumps bumps and corners all over the place. People who do that mod normally have all the bodywork abd unnecessary lumps and bumps smoothed off so it all matches. I honestly think that if you had that mod done on its own, it would look like a crossbreed.... a rottweiler with the ass of a poodle if you know what i mean. Sorry mate thats just my honest opinion. :roll:


R's are Beeeaaauuuttttiiiiifffffuuuulllll as they are :lol:
