So I've had my car for a little over three years now and I feel like its finally at a point where I can post something like this for others to see.

Being super into the drift scene/Japanese drifting style I was pretty bummed that a company like BN Sports had nothing interesting made for our chassis (no roots to the old kits they made) so I decided I would take matters into my own hands lol. This is a completely 1 off kit I made myself. This is my daily driver/drift car (yes I do events at the track as well as some street drifting here and there) Parts list is below.

Exterior
Custom made front bumper using oem bumper (with sidemarker delete :thumbsup:)
Custom side skirts pretty much made from scratch
s13 ganador reps (side mirror door hole delete)
Rep 326 wing with custom mounts to mount to the trunk (oem wing holes were filled)
Helix clear tails
Custom side vents with strobes going in soon
Drift armor rear bashbar with jacking point painted white
WRB paint with light blue flake in the clear coat
Custom floral design on the roof and under the wing

Interior
Custom reupholstered door panels/shift boot/ebrake boot/rear decklid thing
Suede wrapped dash panels
random interior plastics wrapped with black vinyl
Broadway wide rear view mirror
Genuine Bride Vios 3 with Buddy Club seat rails
NRG short hub
Random brand quick release
Genuine Nardi Deep Corn
Oem shifter with a 3 inch extension
Autopower 4 point cage painted white
Ebay rear seat delete
Cusco rear strut bar

Wheels/Suspension
Front- R33's that were professionally chromed (17x9)
Rear - RPF1's in SBC (18x9.5) or Weds Farmas dp-v11 in 17x8 (drift spares)
Bc coilovers
PBM rear lower control arms
SPC toe arms
PBM subframe risers

Engine
Some UEL headers
ISR front pipe
Stock catback with muffler delete with an extended tip

This kit is finished at the moment but I will be making a rear bumper to go with it in the future

I may be forgetting some stuff but if you'd like to see more pictures/more uploads or videos of drifting hop onto my instagram @david_bobb
If enough people dig this I'll post a proper build timeline of how my car looked over the last three years and pictures of the process of making the kit (made everything in my driveway in front of my house)

What did you do to fit the mirrors? Are they of an ae86? Really interested in doing this someday.

They are actually for an s13 (240sx) I made a bracket myself to fit them and had the hole in the door welded and repainted. I have a lot of material left from it so I plan on making more in the future and selling them

Nice, I know another member used ae86 mirrors and they fit pretty nicely. Good to know s13's will work well too!

Recognized your car from instagram, looks so sick. also into the schassis/ drift scene so it's nice to see other cars with that same influence. need them ganador brackets! always wanted to do that too.

I'm diggin it man! I came from the drift/240sx scene so it's nice to see some of that style on this chassis. You could probably make some decent $$$ by making molds and selling your kit!

Thanks dude! been really struggling trying to find someone/a company to work with to make more. not only would I like to sell them but I'd like some more for myself (the kits pretty trashed now from drifitng and being low lol)

I miss the bn and uras style of the early 2000's. Your car looks great

means a lot dude thank you! still more to come

I could recommend a few companies/manufacturers in the drift scene to get in touch with if you'd like, there are a few smaller grass roots guys here in the states that would probably be interested.

Although, if you have the means to, doing it yourself may be more beneficial to you money wise if you've got the time to make them.

Just followed you on IG. Love this style.

Followed as well! This car definitely caught my eye.
Did you retain any functionality on the mirrors or are they manual adjustment only?

Dude that would be great! I dont really mind what state they're in I have a trailer so I could easily throw my car up on it and take a little road trip somewhere to meet with them to work it all out. I wouldnt mind making them myself only problem is I have nooooooooo idea how to make a mold for them unfortunately. wouldnt mind laying the fiberglass once I have some molds though and I could definitely find some space for it.

Thanks! Unfortunately they are manual and from the car being so low and bouncing on crappy roads the mirrors lower alllllll the time so I have to re-adjust them a bunch (on top of them already being super small and hard to see out of)

cool man, i'll add you on ig and shoot you some info!

Did you ever find someone to make copies of the kit?

*edit* original producer did not work out, still working on it

If you ever get to produce the side skirts hola at me :)

Unfortunately the KBD dude got really shady and stopped answering me. I'm having the ganador brackets released in the coming weeks then the kit is next! All updates will be on instagram then I'll post on here if I remember haha

Wow that sucks, they look really dope man. Would love to have a pair :(

Definitely will happen in the future man :thumbsup:

Awesome, i'll keep an eye out for them :cheers:

ganador mirror brackets are now for sale! check the link in the first post!!1

@DavidBob

Do you have any install pictures of how you mounted the ganadors? some kind of visual to aid in installation?

I see your adapters are just plates that you would need to drill through for mounting but some makes of ganadors have stubs that would probably go all the way through the material in order to sit flat. (currently looking at subaru legacy ganadors) You used s13 ganadors for your set?

Can you please take a picture of the adapters from inside the car?
