Been hard at work trying to get the cream 180 back to it's former self.
Right off the bat i'm sure you guys notice the OEM Type-X kit, yes I went back to it, my other kit was way too messed up.
Fully replaced running gear. From control arms, to coils and brakes. Went with 326 shocks with Tein springs and 326 brakes and rotors.
Had to chop off the front TV because it was too jacked up from the accident. Replaced that with a custom fabricated tube front end, as well as the roll cage with full interior. You can ride in the back if you're feeling dicey.
Had to replace the front fenders, luckily I had a few extra sets laying around so I paint matched those on a slow day at the ASM Shop.
Also replaced the DMAX over fenders on the rear with a brand new set, just haven't gotten around to painting those yet.
The R33 wheels were trashed :( so right now I have her sitting on some stock set I had around.
I had to replace the engine as well, which was the hardest part. I've had that RB since my mint 240. So letting that go was pretty hard.
I also threw a new seat and steering wheel in there as well. I'm working with a company that makes custom harness straps and cloth for seats. So it shouldn't look too bland for long.

Not really sure what else there is. Literally just got this thing on wheels and rolling again last night. I have quite a bit still planned as far as fixing everything goes, I just wanted to give you guys and update and let you know that the Cream 180 is still in fact alive!!
