GP sports, or BN sports

Ok, well I want to know what you guys think is a better body kit, the GP sports kit, or the BN sports Type I kit. I would get the full kit of either of them, and after doing the math, after paint and installation, it will be approximately the same price. So give me your input. Any suggestions, etc.

Im sure you guys know what the GP sports kit looks like, here's the BN sports type 1

I'm going for the GP one over the BN. That just doesn't look right for some reason, but I love the GP sports

those wheels on that car are obnoxious. Also I don't like how the lights are set up on that car. Just opened like that, so you can see into the engine bay. And they didn't change the hood so they are still flip up. So BN is ugly. Go with the GP

inukai, would you mind sharing a ballpark of that price? I believe when I added them up from a previous thread, it came to ~$1800-2000 for the front, rear and side skirts. That's still pretty hefty, but it is a badass kit

That yellow RX is fugly. It needs some hydros or something. Looks like a VA beach car.

Anyway, GP all the way. On my wishlist :sigh:.

The BN kit is a bit of overkill. The GP is more to my liking.

I also agree the BN kit is just not 7 friendly, a good/proper kit for an RX7 won't change the original lines of the car drastically as this one has done. But that's my opinion.

GP, I don't like the BN kit. It looks over the top rediculous.

BN is not built very well from what I've been told by my friends in Japan. I haven't seen the GP but would imagine that they are of much better quality.
