I would say 10 based on your pics. Remember though that anything more than 5 will require extended studs.

 

I have 20 half inch extended wheel studs for sale if u go more than 5mm

 

How hard is it to swap the front studs? I've done the back before I just don't know how hard the front would be

 

They're easy. I've never done the back. I can have a front swapped from jack up to jack down in 15 minutes.

 

This^^^ all you do is loosen the wheel hub(3 bolts on back of steering knuckle,pound out the broken stud and put new stud.I used a lug nut and a junk load of washers to set the stud back in place.then tighten your hub assembly back down and poof

 

That's exactly how I do it as well.

 

here is mine after a bunch of work this summer

 

^i demand better pic

 

teaser lol ill snap some more after class

 

MOAR PIX NOAW!!!! please hehe.Did you put the rear lip on the LS bumper?

 

Sense I'm the one who started this thread I just updated the opening post, and listed all my modifications along with some better pictures!

 

MOAR PIX took them real qucik took em with my camera phone

 

Love it.Its missing a fat ass intercooler though looks good!!

 

All of you guys base models make me jealous, I gotta find an SS bumper before I repaint my car, but my car still looks and drives too stock

 

Everyone's gotta start somewhere man! Just take your time and pace yourself, don't blow all your money at once... learned that the hard way. I personally don't wanna get the SS bumper cover.. I can't justify spending all the money for the bumper and getting it painted and for fog lights and all that stuff just to be something it's not.. I'm just trying to keep mine a really clean base model - while still looking modified.

 

i got my ss front and rear bumpers with the lip for free

but the intercooler i wish lol college student= broke!!

 

Plus slapping SS bumpers on a non-ss is kinda played out. Everyone is doing it, that's why I'm looking at something over seas that will be original. Just waiting to get the wheels and tires out of the way first, then when taxes come i'll slap my new exterior mod on.

 

I put the SS bumper on mine to make it more aggressive looking,to fit the intercooler,and cause it was free(thanks to my mom running into me lol)I really dont give a **** about whats i"n" or if somethings "played out".I mod my car to my liking only.Dont care what anyone else thinks.

 

If you want to be unique I've not seen anyone with this bumper

 

looks kinda.....square.looks like the R33 style

 

Looks better than 99% of the body kits out there. IMO slap a lip kit on the base model bumpers, it seems like it's rarely done and looks very clean IMO, especially the GM kit

 

I couldn't pay that much for the GM lip kit when you can get a used ss kit and paint it for about the same price. And 1LowLS it is advertised as Skyline style lmao.

 

this^

i cant wait to get a lip kit

 

Steve your car is fine, I have no problem with it or anyone else with SS kits on base cars. It's just everyone does it, to me it's played out. For my taste body styling wise I'd rather do something more unique to my ride. Styling wise there is more available than people might think. and you don't need to drop coin on a OEM GM lip, RKSport makes a much more attractive front lip for base models, and it's not expensive at all. Far less to paint than a whole bumper.

 

I just want one cause it looks so much sportier. We have to repaint the car soon anyways so it's not a big deal to paint the bumper
