looks very good dude

 

Is it easier to repair aftermarket stuff than just getting secondhand stock bits?

 

I suppose you can patch up fibeglass

 

Not really mate, my car before was a standard S14, that thing got thrown about, like below lol

It got dinged etc, but I never had to replace anything, but thats why I had it as my learner car. The 13 would have been recked after something like that, but the 14 was back out 10mins later. This car will cost me a lot more all day long, that front bumper is done now, but I will keep it for the next 6 months just in case I have any more mishaps but maybe its worth repairing like you say, but you cant expect not to have a mishap somewhere. But this car is my more my hone my technique now that I know what Im doing. But thats the nature of drifting, all drift cars are battle scared, the only cars I see that arent are the big boys who can afford to have their car stripped and re-built through a garage who funds it. Drift cars are meant to look pretty from a distance in my opinion, when you get up close to them, they tend to look more tatty, but no surprise, you have to have a well built car for it to keep taking the abuse, otherwise like my learner shed they start to die over 6 months.

One more video, love the first lap and the way I come off the far back corner before straightening up to get back on the hand brake, it was the only good bit of drifting really in all fairness on this one but this was a bit earlier in the day but none the less this car is amazing :cool:
