Tatsumi mag body kit section

I finally got around to scanning all the little pics in the magazine...
This is all the body kit pics from this mag and a continuation from the pics I dropped in here a few weeks ago.
They are at:&nbsp http://fc3s-pro.com/pics/FC3S/tatsumi.html
I'll link them to the main section as soon as I figure out a nice way to organize this...&nbsp The HyperREV is next!
If there are any problems with the links, please drop me a note!
Enjoy!



-Ted

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...
I wasn't going to play censor and leave pics I don't like out (that "Super" rear spoiler by Anniversary makes me gag, but I put it in there anyways).
My philosophy is to present a resource for all FC3S fans...whether you don't like how it looks or not.

I just wanted to show everyone what options you've got...
Well, these parts are all from Japan, and the mag is over 2 years old.&nbsp It's either going to be expensive for most U.S. folks, or the company has gone out of business or discontinued these parts.

Thanks TED. BTW - I'll be getting my hyper rev pics back from photopoint soon, so we'll have those in digi format again.

BTW - PLEASE !!!! put the manufacturers website info in the picture, even if you have to find their link via yahoo.

I didn't put in that information, because I noticed that the Japan URL's are not stable at this point. &nbsp These guys like to switch their URL's like every few months!

I could've put down addresses and phone numbers, but it's really useless for most of the U.S. and non-Japanese speaking contingents on here.&nbsp I know only Knight Sports staffs a person who can barely translate English, so even the phone numbers are useless.

I wish I could say I can import them - I could, but we're talking about SERIOUS money just for shipping and customs!&nbsp Basically, you end up DOUBLING the amount it costs to bring them over to the states!

In the end, I thought it was better to just leave all that information out.&nbsp I know I'm going to get emails anyways for availablity, so it's not going to stop people from doing that.

that lip looks too slapped IMO...the mazdaspeed one is a little better. The bored nose w/FTP lenses is really hot, and MUCH thanks to RETed for posting this stuff bc it makes it far easier for me to pick a wing and rear valence with what I already have to put on/paint.

I think RX7.COM sells the KSP one - you can tell it's the KSP one cause it has the slit in the leading edge.&nbsp The only other one available is the Border one, which has a slightly narrower duct.

I think Essential closed up shop.
