HOT, and i mean HOT FD pic.

This is quite possibly the nicest 7 fd i have ever seen!

What kit is that?
Is it a wide - arch kit, or is it just the angle that makes it look soo wide?

Yeah, you kind of go "Wow that is pretty coo.....uh .....well......"

It is too easy to give a "Matchbox" or "HotWheel" look to cars with some of these body kits.

you gotta paste the image source in the address bar, at least then it worked for me. That car has a Cwest type 3 front bumper. The car also has widebody fenders. hard to tell exactly what though from the pics. But id say maybe something RE...

It looks decent. Very clean, but a stock FD still looks nicer IMO.

actually, i didnt even look at the pic (as one of our forum admins turned hotlinking off because of too much leaching). i help run the website that the pic is hosted from, and the filename was too similar to one of my car.

as you will be able to tell, my car looks nothing like your fast cars . its pretty slow

That car is pretty sweet! I like everything about the car except for the graphics/stickers. I even like the body kit...And I HATE body kits.... At least he didn't ruin it with a big goofy wing.

That stock FD looks 100% better than the modified FD!!! Those graphics look terrible! That's just toooo much for such a beautiful car, but whatever...different strokes for different folks!

I like the body kit, except for the huge gap at the back of the front fender. It looks like animals could nest in there! But other than that the car looks sweeeet.
