Simon's car was in for an enhancement detail today, and he's asked if I'd post some finished pics here.. so here we are!





















Thanks for bringing it in Simon.. best regards, James.

I'd like to thank James at Ti22 for his hard work today!

Very pleased with the results and could'nt believe the results walking up to the car, you really have bought out the depth in the paintwork.

Goes without saying seeing the results he comes very recommended!!

Very nice indeed Si, the car really is outstanding.

I don't know what Nissan call the colour but gunmetal/anthracite looks really good on the GTR.

Oh, and nice job as well James.

Won't take too long to get dirty! It is alot cleaner under the dirt now so should be easier to wash!

Got my new wheels yesterday , looks a lot nicer now

Will be giving Ti22 a bell shortly to book it in for paint correction as it has some mop marks where someone has tried polishing it but don't a bad job.

Si , I found out mine has a remap , got adjustable boost between 0.5 and 1.2 bar , it's fun on the high settings !

I don't know what it is , it was on before I bought the car and found it by accident the other week , just need to hear what Nissan have to say about it now as I bought it as a standard car with a warranty !
Thought with the checks they are supposed to do on all cars they sell they should of know it was done.

Doubt there will be a prob with Nissan. Be good to know who had done it though, possibly ons of the HPC's?

Looking very nice Si, I've got a similar way of bonnet lifters / struts and I'd not be without them - a very worthwhile modification.

Thanks Ty, had them on the Scoob and was such a practical mod.

They should of been standard on the GTR as the bonnet is quite heavy!
