Nah, you would be surprised how quick you get used to it. The weirdest thing for me is taking left hand turns in it. It just feels weird sitting on the other side of the car and judging your position on the road.

Drift dreamz your autofocus looks good its a bit off focus, enough for your eyes to see its a bit hazy. I did a little editing to some of your photos hope you like them, Just a basic way to make any photo look better is to try to color correct all of your photos. most cameras will get close with true colors but not good enough. If you have any questions I can try to answer them to the best of my ability.

The mazda speed front is a lip I belive. it can look good as long as its done right. From the pictures i saw in the previous post you showed, the side skirts have to go. IMO the feed sidesteps are just about as clean as it gets. I would keep the speed fron and looks like you had some type of rear diffusers keep those to. Feed Sides, a clean drop not so low you cant turn, and a decent set of wheels depending if you like mesh or spoke.

I dont want to tell you what to do being its your ride, Its up to you to make it yours ya know? So what I said is just in my opinion.

This thread needs more pics in it....

Actually the picture in Post #11940 was taken long before Shine started replicating the FEED kit. The middle FD has a FEED bumper, but Shine replicates a slightly different FEED bumper that has the lower front portion designed more smoothly.


(The bumper's not fully on; I was still working on the car as well as trimming the bumper inlet to fit the GReddy intercooler.)

Sorry... but thats the burnout kit.
It has nothing to do with FEED

Here I finished the work on my car
(in the photoshop world)
My aim to have it in the real world like this, is end of this year / begin of the next season.

but don´t flame me...
Photoshopped is just:

Wing
white wheels instead of gold
AutoExe Sideskirts



If someone has a Re-Amemiya or Afflux (FEED) GT-Wing, it would be nice if you could shoot a picture of your car from the same angle because the only wing picture which fits with that pic was small. so the quality is as you can see really bad.
If I had a good picture the "fake" would look better. Thanks!



Kind Regards

Marc

thats correct, but I don't think it could be a shine replica because that pic is old old old.

+24 in the back on 10x18 with OEM Fenders???


[I] though 10X18 would require offset 50 or is this because you are running OEM suspension?
