Take your pick, that one or the FC2000. Either way, I'm sure you'll have notable interest. Just look at the interest from the old FC3s.org thread.

I'd really like to see someone make a replica of the stock s5 chin spoiler like scott said...theyre impossible to find now, and people need them a) for stock replacement of damaged ones, or b) for looks upgrade but not real flashy, which is the look Im after. I could guarantee you my business if you could make this. Hell, look at demonspeed's shady practices, and the number of orders he still got for them.

As for that front end, it looks real nice, but Im not sure if it'd be my style or not. Depends on the final price. IF it were kept under about $500, then I bet you'd have a hands down winner. Over that, is out of many people's realistic budget. Not to say it's not *worth* that much or more, or that it wouldnt cost you that much or mroe to make, just that many if not most of these guys couldnt afford it. But yes, I do like it, great idea!

I'd have to agree with the RE Amemiya FC2000 kit.

I would purchase that KS front engine in a heartbeat. It is cleaner and looks more functional than the RE kit (intake duct, huge fmic mouth and brake ducts).

I would buy the RE kit as well

Look in the upper right hand side of this forum. See the featured car? It sports the RE front.

I've only been drooling over that front for the 8 months i've had my FC. I guess that sums up if I like it or not . If you did it, i'd buy it (front bumper is a lil fading...soo sad...)

Both the original hood and bumper are on there way from Japan. The hood is also a possibility to do as a replica. I will keep you informed on this.
