Why would he do that when the OP himself has his own company that can make the kit..

I'm sure they'd love to see that. I'm sure if they did than next time they'd just destroy their old stuff, as opposed to taking the chance that somebody would start mass-producing knock offs.

Nice find!

So.... this begs the question: are you going to stop teasing us and tell us you're going to produce this for us?

Will take some time to complete. Some decals are scratch off on purpose. There are lots puched holes on the kit.

Its going take a very long time to have every each decal restore to the way it was before. The whole kit has lots crack and holes on it. Will take a long time to restore. Also the front bumper and hood has special duct for intercooler. That need us to make custom intercooler kit for it. Elase the bumper won't fit on the V mount we had on now.

The company I use to work for had some stuff made by him.
I help him out one time when he had a booth at AMPA show translating.
I'm more closer to his friend A-San(Titan) owner of Twin power.
Seem like there are more Taiwanese with FD then I expected.
