not a fan of boso.. theres a group of guys *non-japanese* out here who are trying to copy boso, or call themselves boso.. i think its a joke.. they happen to be mostly early 20s.. its a fade imo.

Yeah, defintely not fitting for an FC. BOSO style looks real boss on the older nostalgic j-cars.

Nissan Laurel, Ken-Meri skylines, RX-3's even....of course cant leave out toyota either.

One of my Fav's:

I wouldnt ever do it to my car but I think its hilarious. Americans just can't pull it off, and neither can the 7 it seems.

I simply enjoy the wheel offset's, camber angle, ride height and insane fender flare"s w/rivet's.

It's truly a Japan thing with a corresponding history too, but I agree somewhat with need rx7, if it catches on here in the states...there's a chance you'll have guys doin it all wrong with no understanding or even the proper funding to fully pull off a clean boso style car.

Cool thing is...I think a lot of those cars that perform the front bumper mounted oil cooler, are using FC unit's.

Imagine a front collision though....oil everywhere. Can you say road hazard

Lol, thats why 95% of those cars just have huge fake droopy lines going into nothing after they go back into the engine bay. This style will probably never catch on *I hope*, but I'm sure there is a few people hardcore enough wanting to properly recreate a true boso style machine. I know I do.
