what kinda front spoiler is this?

From the anime that I'm sure many are familiar with. The Initial D game says it's fujita engineering, but I'm not sure if it really is or not. I thought it was might be a made up one, til I saw it for real...




any ideas?

Well the Liva Action movie front lip and the anime from lip are different. In that real pic above there are two slits in the front lip, but in the anime there arn't.
The lip that came to mind when I saw the real picture was the Shine Aero lip.

I know they're not the same lip but the shine lip also has the two slits on the lip.

Also, what front bumper is that?

Yeah, it's like the entire front I'm looking to match, so I have no idea where to start. Just gathering information and seeing what I can find out. For reference, the live action front looks like this:



Needs the lights, plate mounted more to the left side, and the lip haha.

The lip used in ID is a lip made by FEED AKA Fujita Engine Engineering Development.

Also, don't go by the Live movie because I hear a lot of thing are different on the cars compared to the anime.

The one without the slits, or the one from the anime is a stock S5 turbo front lip.

So your saying that you should miss out on a pretty good movie based on (what I assume is) an anime you like just because they changed a few things on the cars?

Seems a little asinine to me.

I never said, "Don't go BUY the live Action Movie." I said, don't go BY the Live Action Movie.
If you're trying to make a replica car, don't go BY the live action movie car because it is a lot different than the anime car.
