I think do both
and i agree with nikki dmax bonnet and ganador mirrors and paint the roof red
i also think a roof spoiler and a carbon centre for the kouki lights and remove the yellow tint from the centre of rear lights
then it would be the nicest 180 in the country

kouki spoiler yes

n1 vent and bumper cut out are a personal preference, i like the look personally.

paint the roof red

buy a dmax bonnet

ganador mirrors

car is 110% complete looks wise then :cool::cool::cool::cool:

I'm pretty much with Nikki! I hate the wheels also however, and the roof lip spoiler thing, and the yellow tint on the reversing lamps.

There is a fella up donegal direction (i think) rocking a kouki 180 with a dmax bonnet so (no pics at the moment) so i'd go different and keep the bonnet the same or just go non vented carbon.
Change the reversing lights back to white and dont put the vents in

The above,

I would ditch the color coded garnish also..

Over all though I think you're going in the right direction.

thanks for all info lads . think im goin down the route of vented bumper was way'n it up ta day . deff gettin a kokui spoiler . il work a bonnet soon i hope :) dose any1 know is it worth my while goin to nissan to buy a brand new center garnish ?

Hi mate, I got parts for my r34 gtr from nissan in kiltimagh. Got the the part no. off Nissan4u and just gave it to your man, he got it up on his computer straight away, he had to get them in from Japan which took a few weeks but there was no problem, might be best to get the part number, they probably won't even know what a 180sx is...

Btw, car looks great!

Paint Roof and Pillars, and pick up a Kouki Spoiler.

If you had money/won the lotto, pay Magic Aero to do you the 100mm extension Kouki Spoiler.

Bonnet Mirrors and N1 vents are a recipe for a perfect 180, its only a checklist, not really unique. Well, in this isle, it would still be cool as! Change from every other tasteless bastard in the country.
