But you cant afford that Doty. You need a new Exhaust first.

The GP sports is way better looking IMO, however the price is crazy therefore I'm going with the next best thing! Bomex!

I'm not voting yet, b/c I like the KS kit, I especially like the FD style corner light, but I like my FTP's as well, which the GP kit keeps....other than that, I don't see too much diff really.....except for the hood, I like the hood on the KS, minus the pins as well...

KS kit, the FTP lights in the OEM FC really date the cars appearence as much as a adding a kaminari kit would today.

I'll take the KS with ALL the Trimmings.. The GP looks too much like some of the cheap *** low end stuff coming out of the states at the moment.. I really don't want my FC to look like some kids nasty ***, first gen Tibi. or sunfire

I thought the purpose of an aftermarket kit was to change the looks? Maybe I am wrong in thinking that but when I'm spending upwards of 2K I want a very noticable difference.

The GP Sport body kit is slick!

It would be cool to get a replica kit but I doubt anyone would ante up the cash. A lot of people are more talk than cash.

I guess the gp only because the knightsport is really ugly, I would rather have the border front end if I had a choice.
they need to start making more kits with the 99 spec turn siganl lights in them. I'm thinking about molding them into a border kit when I get the extra time and money

Last time I checked a car that gets less than 5 miles on it a year didnt require 4 hood pins

RE Amemiya looks the best. But the series 5 front end has really grown on me.

What about my Ghetto Sports homie made kit? LOL
It is really a Corksport that I thrashed...soon to be finished with some foglights molded in too. I now also have a TII fiberglass hood scoop molded on my aluminum hood.



Here is what mine will kinda look like if I decide to use my round FC 2000 clone light housings instead of the Audi ones pictured above.

(Please excuse my crappy photo editing program)

GP...
KS changes too much, and the hood looks really funny on an FC with all that venting and such.
