Wow!!that is awesome!!loving the stance with those arches and wheels!!
Please dont feature it in a chav mag like Max Power,think Banzai,Jap Performance,MIJ(Irish JDM mag)or Redline,your car is way too cool for a mag with corsas on 19s with lots of subs owned by a lad in a dodgy burberry(fake)hat!

There is a chap on Ebay in Japan called zeroism 702 and his store is here: eBay Store - Combine Ship OK Japan to WorldWide: JUNCTION PRODUCE, GS300 400 430, ARISTO, LX450 470, LANDCRUISER100

Or you can go to - Luxury - Bippu - Style "JDMPalace" JDM, VIP, Bippu where they carry JP stuff.

The headrests are really nice. They're made from memory foam and they're very comfortable for long drives.

More updates from yesterday (7/4/09)

After taking the necessary measurements from our cardboard template, we cut out both sides in 22swg steel.



We also added some cardboard ribs to the centre of the arch to give us the desired amount of flare.
The steel sheet was then temporarily fixed in place to allow us to measure up for the other steel pieces needed to be cut.

Awesome! For some reason I thought you had an old style aristo or did you have one of them first?

I'm getting a picture fail on the wheel pics on the first page but its looking good, its gonna be fully ganster when finished!

How cool are those junction produce boxes too

Thats craftmanship!
Next time i fook my S13 i will do it your way. Why didnt you just use some E30M3 or 850i Repair parts? Would have eased up the metal work

A few more pictures...

In order for the the body to sit low enough with the wheels on, the factory arch has to be cut to allow for more clearance. Note the steel "ribs" that will hold the shape of the new arch.
