The wheels are Konig.

The front bumper looks to be a Kamei.

Those wheels are actually Panasports, and the front bumper is a discontinued Kamei model. If you find one, buy it, they aren't as easy to get a hold of anymore.

Sexy, that's what it is.

And I'd like to submit the picture in the first post as proof that first-gens look good in BRG.

first off, it's ugly. Terrible kit and wheels.

Secondly, it's an "R34" kit. Probably from an accord. It's R34 styled similar to the stock R34 skyline bumpers. There are many R33 and R34 styled kits for many of the Hondas and other cars. Terrible kits.

That airdam is not a Kamei. It is a Xenon which I believe is no longer available. The wheels are Panasport's as mentioned earlier. It can be made to fit FB's but it takes trimming and modification to do it.

On one hand I like it for the rounded almost FD styling... on the other I feel like tearing it off as it goes against the car's orginal styling...

Can't make decisioN!

With a different set of wheels, that car would look great.

The Xenon SA airdam is not easy to come by, it took me 3 years to find one for my SA project. There is a website that says they still have a mold, showcars something. The originals are urethane.
