Look at the line between the bumper and the hood. See how it goes from not much of a gap to a large gap. That is what I see at least.

The new FEED type II R front bumper is made of fiberglass. It's not released yet. They will release the bumper sometime in March. The price will be the following:

front bumper: $1600
signal lights: $500
signal lights HID option: $1250
carbon fiber splitter: $150

All prices include shipping from Japan. It takes about 6 weeks to have it shipped over. If you want air shipping, add $500. By air takes about 2 weeks.

Hi Chuck...

Nice to have guys like you and the rest of Rotary Extreme to visit the Tokyo Auto Salon. It's awesume that you bring back so much info. on all the new FD's out there from land of the Rising Sun.

I visited the Tokyo Auto Salon in 97 and it was cool back then. However it must be just so much better now. Wish I could go again next year. We all know just how expensive these trips can be.

For all you serious FD owners looking to Upgrade their FD, we should really consider What Rotary Extreme has gone though to get us this info from the Best Import
Auto show in the world.

I will definitely give you guys a call when I need some
products. Sincerely jack :-)

If we can get a group of people to order the FEED stuff, you will save on shipping and maybe I can get a better discount from FEED as well. Group buy??

For the prices that you specified above, are you talking about geniune FEED or are they "knockoffs"? Assuming that you are talking about geniune FEED, should I expect the knockoffs to be available a few months after I purchase a geniune FEED? Also, I would be interested to hear what they say to a vendor who previously made knockoff copies of their product, and is now desiring to purchase the geniune item now.

That's how I felt. Looks great, except for the fit.

You guys obviously have not seen 'bad' fitment. If anything, I think its just the angle and shadow - if you guys are refering to the line between the bumper and the hood. Make it sound like its trash or something, sheesh. Keep in mind the WHOLE front end is aftermarket on that car - the hood, the bumper, and the fenders.

Maybe they do not have the hood bumper on that side adjusted? Looks perfectly fine in this straight on shoot.

I can't wait to get my hands on one of those. I can't stand those CF fins on the side though.

You are one funny guy. First you have problem with me making knock off. When I try to sell more authentic stuff, you have a problem with it too. Make up your mind on where you stand. I already said this so many times and I am going to say it again just for you.

1. I sell knock off
2. I sell authentic
3. I sell to the customer what he wants, either knock off or authentic
4. If someone orders the authentic, I will not copy it without his/her consent.

Those prices are for authentic products.

Chuck
