joey b Posted November 13, 2003 Report Share Posted November 13, 2003 I've seen Jay's car in person and that shit is HOT. Real flashy esp with that oh so glossy paint. BTW baddflash you need to change that gay ass grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D M N Posted November 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2003 thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddflash Posted November 14, 2003 Report Share Posted November 14, 2003 Yes I did cut holes.... Did you also notice that there's no seams? It's only two peices now, just the center piece is separate. I spent a lot of time on that bumper and I really did fight the idea of drilling holes but I'm glad I did now cause it really adds to the look. I've seen the foglights in the intake which I think looks bad, plus that opening is small enough especially with the Z grille. I have the Z grille on the car now, but I'm undecided on it. It looks real good now especially sitting next to my other Lum (same grille) but I almost preferred the other one cause of airflow and it doesn't makes it look like a Corsica , Cavi or Beretta. I'm even thinking of making my own, just to be different and I want airflow through it. Although I think it makes a good winter front, sure looks a lot better than one.

D M N Posted November 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2003 what would i need to take from the donor car and whats a good price for all that?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patgizz Posted November 14, 2003 Report Share Posted November 14, 2003 if you just wanna do the front all you need is the grille w/ parking lights and the front bumper assembly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 with the front crossmemeber if thats what you want to call it, becasue the fronts of the two are not the same, like my Z34 grille can't be screwed down on the bottom, i mean it's not moving but it still doesn't have a place to screw them into.

bluegp Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 I have the Z grille on the car now, but I'm undecided on it. The Euro grille might look good on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supreme_style21 Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 I have the Z grille on the car now, but I'm undecided on it. The Euro grille might look good on it. Those break so easy! I must have went thru 3 or 4 in the year or so I had mine. :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Later Jay Ok so what modification did you have to do to make your car look so clean, with the z34 front end?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 all euro/base model cladding or molding has to come off, if you don't do the rear end it'll look like ass becasue you'll still have the black molding with teh red/chrome strip in it , also when you take that off it fucks your paint so if you do it be very careful! hope this helps if your serious about doing this PM me and we can talk viz that new invention calle dthe phone! later Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Later Jay All I had to do was move the clips to the outside holes. I'm not sure but I think there was some metal bracket in the spot for the Z-grille but it's been so long sice I did it.

D M N Posted November 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2003 well forget it then i thought it was a direct bolt on. This is actually my sisters car that kind of became mine because mine broke (88 camaro). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddflash Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 If I wanted to leave things mostly stock, I guess it's ready now. But I'm modifying a lot of things And have been driving it daily up until now so I've never had time to do it. I'm starting to think I'm going to have to take out a loan inorder to get everything done. I figure I need $10,000 to get it done the way I want it. I'll get it done sooner or latter.

Aaron Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 the swap looks damned good, just whatever you do, dont call it a Z34, just call it a sexy ass euro. Calling it a Z34 in a way degrades the Z34 guys. i mean, look at jays, his car looks awesome!!! and i respect him for the work that it took, even if he is a biatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
