I really like what you're doing with the headlights, if i had an Almera i'd shamelessly copy
New pics of my GTI

How come you didnt use the P1 lights then? Raceworx has done the same 
That does look pretty good actually! Nice work!
I just put them in the oven for about 5 mins at a time. get a knife into it 'gently' or you could crack it.
Takes a bit of time the glue is solid, just need to keep putting it back in and separate it a bit at a time.
Then mask it up and halfords satin black paint. Take your time and mask it up, i polished it to take of some over spray and it started to take the silver off.
It took a while loads of coats of paint, but it was worth it.
Looks better in the flesh tbh.
Grill is a little different too, my cars obviously had a dint at some point. so I modified the grill to sit under the bonnet, makes it look a wee bit meaner i think.
Raining today so no chance of painting the splitter or cleaning the mofo

Looking good great job on the Suteki Vented Indicators and a great job on the P2 GTi style Head Lights.
Ph2 lights were both from ebay, one was a genuine nissan other one was a copy.
Next on the list is to sort out the rust, its not too bad at the minute, but I want to try and have a bash at fixing it myself, so I'll wait till after F&M. If I make an arse of it it can go and get fixed properly.
Don't really want to do much else body wise, just tidying up. I like the look of the kit etc. Might have a go and fix those 17" wheels I have in the shed and spray them black.
Then it's engine work time

how easy was it to do the Suteki Vented Indicators??
I tried taking apart my p1 indicator and spraying that up as a test, it wasn't that difficult just take a bit of time to get them apart safely.
Mine doesn't look as dark as yours tho? maybe cos they are p1's. Did you spray the lens on the reflective (silver bit) on the indicator?
Also for the headlight which bit did you spray, lens or the other bit?

Well, it been a while since I updated this and did anything to the car really. Money has been a bit tight.
so when I've had a spare minute I've been fixing up my wheels that came with the car. Tehy were pretty bad, but I took my time on them so I can get them looking good.
Was going to get them powdercoated, but if I can I like to do things myself. So been faffing about with filler primer and paint.
The state of them before
One done 3 to go
Going to keep my old 15's for during the winter etc
Colour is Pearlescent Honda Nighthawk Black.
Once I get this done, I'm going to sort out the rust as its getting worse.
Once I do that, I've got a nice wee project lined up to get a 7" Touchscreen LCD moulded into the centre console (where the stereo currently sits) and run a SFF PC through it and get the data from the OBD port running through like below.
Ideally, I'm hoping this will Evoscan program will support Nissan OBD1 by the time I'm ready to use it, Its in the pipeline.
Hoping to have this done for F+M money permitting
