Gp sports kits only!

Post away.

There's a look i'm wanting to go for using this kit. See if you can help me find it!

Why gp? I can get the knockoff for $550 shipped to my front door and i'm a cheap motherf.....mother lover.

You had a brain fart and forgot that you post in my build thread regularly didn't you? Lol.







More aero.

If you're running 16's, that helps heaps too. I have a picture in my head and i want to see if it will work on an actual car. Not sure about what color scheme i want to go with to bring it together and other nic-nacs/tidbits so i need MOAR visual. Those re-amemiya mirrors could help bring it together well. I just need to see more.

Thanks guys.

Red is growing on me. I do like your car. Got any more angles of it?

I know there's some wangan wings floating around on gp cars. Where are you hiding?

My peers keep saying "PANDA" or "Chalkboard". Panda looks good but i think i'll leave chalkboard to the 240 and civic hatch guys.......

Yeah. I've seen alot of bn and re-amemiya but not alot of gp. The foresight kit and gp kits are a good buy and different from what alot of the fc drift guys are putting on their cars. Too much bn drift fc's and i'm not putting bn on my car unless it's a blister widebody.

Anybody have a picture with the gp kit rocking canards and/or a splitter? Rear diffuser with a gp front?

^^^^The "380 dollars shipped" bootleg requires 2 days of fitting and fiberglass work.

Gellcoat chips off leaving holes that need to be resined from behind and filled from front, kit needs to be trimmed and reshaped in certain areas, holes to be drilled for using existing fc brackets and mounting points and brackets engeneered and resined in for support.

The extra 2 days of time is well worth it though for just about 400 dollars in materials and two summer days.

Just out of curiousity, how much is the real gpsports kit shipped?

Furb.....that is the cleanest, most "attention to detail" install i have ever seen. I had to wipe the drool and semen off of my laptop, after viewing the before paint pictures.

edit....not in this thread though. gonna go look for it now.

Nice work
