36374, My new g35 revived
Posted by boosted60trimrst, Oct-21-08 09:49 PM
I bought a salvaged 04 g35 coupe and iv been rebuilding over the last month . I made a write up on it on g35driver.com and thought you guys would find it interesting . Dont worry i still got the eclipse of course . The paintwork is toward the end . I even had to show a couple pics of the eclipse and the 2gnt logo on it haha

You didnt just fiberglass that wheel well to avoid the metal work did you?

You dont need to layer fiberglass to make it moisture proof.
You did a good job regardless....for a hack lmao

Nice work. I kinda want to get a part time job at body shop and start to learn how to do some of these things. Just so I spruce up my own rides....and have a place to do it. LOL

Impressive as always, I guess this is why we haven't heard much on the 2gnt as of late. You really need to bring some of your work out to one of the Jersey DSM meets

A TT setup? This I would like to see. If you don't mind my asking, what is your total monetary investment in the G, thus far?
