No, tri-point no longer offers their Fc wide-body kit - DAMN IT!! I called. Although they dont advertise for the FC much anymore they still offer many of their other FC parts...

Yeah, the red Fc turboII posted is BAD-AZZ!!, and what about the hood on the blu Fc w/FD front-end, where'd that come from?

The wing mounts are a 8 laying birchwood. I want to rainforce it with some alu and carbonfiber. I think then it would hold the newtons laws...

I've got GP Sports bodykit, Shine Auto Project front fenders and Raceon Rear overfenders. The gray s4 has Tripoint fenders and RE Amemiya kit.

RaceOnUsa does sell the tripoint replica widebody setups though, like I said they are listed on ebay recently as the 338 kit and the quality is pretty good especially considering the price and rarity / low volume of the kit.

You can even call raceon. They have a website that you can get the number from. They are pretty good about honoring their ebay prices.

Yup, Hypertek bought it, lucky bastard! Anyways, the front fenders are 30mm VENTLESS front fenders. Foresight replicas, I wanted to try and keep the body as clean as possible.

your car is super close to what my black TII will look like. Except for the rear bumper...I'm going with a diffuser instead.

That's going to look sick! I've been contemplating the rear diffuser too. I was thinking about cutting off the area between the two exhaust cutouts and installing a diffuser, but I'm not sure how it will turn out.

Yeah, my buddy's got some Raceon fenders too. He's got about a 1.5 inch gap between the fender and the door. He's doing the bodywork now and I know it's going to take a long time to fill those gaps.
