+1 I like it

Honestly, I hear people complain about RE-A's Porsche look conversion
all the time too ........ until they find out its RE-A..... I think it's a sharp
aero package, and I'm glad someone put the time in to do something
completely different. It looks sorta TVR-ish, but then again, I like TVR's
they eat most road cars alive and **** out Prius's.

This must be close to a full sheet metal conversion. This is no walk in
the park when you compare it to your "front bumper swaps" or what
ever. These guys are adding entirely new panels here. RnD must have
been a bitch, you gotta give it to em' for sticking to it.

I might like it if I knew it wasn't originally an FD... But for 10k less, I would much rather have a Fortune kit.

^Meh, the hatch looks weird/out of place. It will run you $3500 + install + paint, when IMO, money could be better spent else-where.
