Put those 6 picts from my above onto the body, see related picts : and with a little creativity with bondo and fiberglass, it'll come out lookin like your conception : except for I don't know how the rear end looks.

Theres nothing retarded about having low power as long as all that output is being used efficiently and has stability.

So the only one being embarrassed is you because you fail to understand the dynamic of the build.
I believe an FC is a low cost car since many of us own it..To make it look this extravagant and modern, it should be very done up in the build of the motor as well. All Show and No Go is not the way you want to bring up an FC. Don't take this to heart, Pal...It's just a very obvious point

I agree with you hands down the motor is an important part of the build and should beconsidered first ,however this post is about a concept coming to life, and when he starts talking about his motor build then your expertise is surely welcomed.

I'm sure that if he produced a car with this kit in the sketch, the amount of attention to detail would carry over to other aspects of the car such a powertrain & drivetrain.

Picture these parts molded in properly, alot of work, then fabricate a hole in the rear bumper and fabricate some fender strakes, sorry for the crappy picts but you get the idea :

the problem i have with that setup is not the fenders but how the door flows into those fenders, with an abrupt change in direction which i think is an eye sore.

I think the Greedy1 kit Picts # 1and # 2 or this kit ??? pict # 3 (might be custom made) have the holes pre molded into the fenders already, its just a matter of fabricated the frakes to fill in the air ducts and then finished with a door mod to blend into the fenders.

Sorry me, I'm going on and on about you're original vert concept and I get excited everytime I see your picture, Nobody can take away from the Brilliant Visions, you have stored in your mind, I agree with the others when they say send those ideas to Mazda ,( but do it properly so you get the credit and some money , maybe even a job ) those ideas are better than what they will be releasing soon. But as the the vert concept, I was trying to look at it relistically, what I showed you can be accomplished, as for the newer concepts, they can be accomplished also but you'll need sponsors with alot of $$$$$. ( Time and Money ) Dont stop your dreams, because of what I'm saying, were ALL rooting for you. Carry On.

P.S.S. I mentioned you'll need sponsors with alot of money, disguard that, what you'll need is the material which is gonna be costly if you can get members to donate material then all all you need is the time ( plenty of it ) your goal is achievable.

Hypertek is correct with the 3rd Round Concept drawings ,start with the FD chassis, however with the 1st two concepts reality is More Achieveble and Affordable using the FC chassis and body.
