Ehhh it's ok. The front lip looks decent. I think the car is slammed way too low and makes the side skirts unecessary. IMHO of course.

i like it, but those chrome rims have to go! if it was those same style but gunmetal, and the rear camber angle was the same as the front, then i think that would be quite badass!

I like the front and rear- but agree the skirts are a bit much, as are the wheels pictured. Just my opinion, though.

Front bumper and sidesteps look alright. With the front bumper, I think the sidesteps are a must.

I just don't like the rear of the car. Wing doesn't match, and I don't like low rear bumpers!

I have this full kit and it's really nice. The quality is amazing. It even comes predrilled with a serial number. I was quite impressed. Just haven't had the time to post pics. It's gonna start growing a lot soon. There are probably only 15 kits that have come over as of this week.

Later, Rishie

They are currently backordered. Let me know if you guys are really interested so I can try and put together some good club pricing for you pending the outcome of this poll.

The GP sports kit is the one i want to get but all the prices ive seen so far are really expensive. The kit is really bad *** it will take an FC and make it look like they made a new FC for 2003. I really want that kit but cant afford it right now If you guys get a good price for it I might be able to get involved.

I think those wheels might be SSR Agle Minerva:

I think the rims themselves look pretty good, but they look out of place on a FC. They would look better on a VIP car (luxury car), rather than a sports car.

I think it would be a lot nicer if it had a piece that went on the bottom half of the door so the door was flush with the sideskirt. Then the side skirts wouldn't look like running boards then.

I like the front and rear but the side skirts im not a fan of, If the cost of the kit came down it would be nicer aswell . Too much Negative Camber on the wheels aswell and rims are to VIP style for an FC in my opinion

The GP kit is one of my favorite kits, but the price makes me think twice!
