The Build and Adventures of the ActivS5

[riseabv]

what's new with the 5?

[ExhaustNote]

It's sold.

[ActivS5]

I sold the car to one of my best friends. I can use it whenever I want though, I'll still go to all the events, just focusing on the GT-R right now. We put Avant Garde M590's 20x10 square on the S5. The rest is the same.

hey,

How hard was it to remove the grey plastic around the instrument cluster and nav screen? I'm getting some things vinyl wrapped and was thinking of having that done as well since it looked so awesome when you did it. Thanks.

Which type/brand of carbon fiber vinyl did you use to wrap your MMI surround? I'm looking to do the same on my car. Thanks!

Really easy! Just use a pry tool. I'm sure you've figure that out by now since your post was 5 months ago!!!

Haha ehhh this is an Audi board, even though my Nissan is an Audi at heart.

It was a generic 4D glossy carbon fiber vinyl that I got off Amazon. I really don't recall the name, sorry!

Hey, a Skyline GTR ;-)

Very sexy!

[ThewhippetsS5]

You're back!!! Loving the GTR!

[ActivS5]

Thanks, me too! I'll probably switch it up sometime in 2015 though. Glad to see everyone here is doing well. Congrats on the RS5, Joe! I didn't know you got one.

[Octothorpe]

What would you consider?

[ActivS5]

I think an R8, always wanted one!

[GetYourWheels]

I loved the S5... but dat GTR

[LAXlittleant26]

Amazing build on your S5. I'm still rather new to things, and your build was a real eye opening experience! Wish you the best with that GTR!

Thanks Chris, just picked it up in August. I love it, can't wait to throw a capristo or HMS exhaust on it. Hope all is well with the GTR!
