I dont know. Its a hard decision. For the money, the Bomex kit is the most feasable. I really like the BN sports kit, but i'm not sure if I would be able to drive it and not scratch it up every minute, and I absolutely am in love with the GP sports body kit, it's just another pricey kit. I'm still unsure as to which kit to get, though.

I was just looking at the Corksport body kit, and that one is pretty nice looking.

Ranzo: do you have any pics of your car??

not with the new aero on it. It should be done this weekend and I will take mad pics. I will take some of the "in progress" pictures also.



Just a suggestion to those with aero, attach the side steps and bumpers with Zip ties. This way you can incorporate some flex into them and if you hit something the zip tie will break and not your bumbers.

theres also the BN copy kit


called "intercepter:sexy style" or some crap like that


i have craploads of drift magazines, and it seems the most common is the BN style kit.

i would try to get one for my rx7, but itll prolly end up on the side of the road anyways!

ranzo: do you know of any other smaller rx7 kits? by smaller i mean less-known.

theres alot of knock off looking kits by liek "super star" and aero king.

also, is the intercepter sexy style kit the EXACT same thing? it looks like just a knock off to me, but i might be wrong.

The GP Sports Kit is probably the best looking "street car" kit I've seen. RE Amemiya's kit is badass, no argument, but it looks like a show car and not a street car

There are many many companies who make aero in Japan . Alot of them look alike with only minor differences. Thats why I bought my bumper from a small company. BN Sports bumber cost 500 bux and I dont really like it so the one I bought cost 380 with shipping and I like it

The Sexy Style kit is not a Knockoff of anything and definatley not of BN's kit. The sexy Style fenders are in the same shape as stock and are 20mm over size. The BN Fender has the stock side step molding piece incorporated into it , an air duct and is 30mm over.

Give me another day and I will scan lots of Drift Tengoku and options so you can see the different aero kits.

I can't wait to see them, but do you know anything about the Corksport kit? I'm really interested to see how the whole kit would look.

i collect drift tengoku

i dont like the new red FC on the cover,.. it has a weird thing on the back!

i have drift tengoku and battle magazine

i dont really like option or any of the other ones i dont know why,.. oh and nostalgic hero, i love that mag ; )



its not so much the fenders that remind me of the BN kit, but the front end of the sexy style kit that reminds me ALOT of the BN kit.

Thank you.

I will be carrying the GP kits as soon as they hit the US. I would like to act as a Westcoast distributor. I should be able to offer good pricing. If not Inukai and I will bring them in gray market.

I own a shop on the E coast and would love to Dist. them over here. Can anyone lead me to a source? BTW that BN kit is my alltime fave kit for the FC. Its aggressive but not gaudy, which IMO is hard to accomplish.
