John, you sure? I'm sure you know better than I am because you've seen 'em in person, but for some reason, the M-sport ones you have seem to to flare out a lot more...or shall I say the flare is more prominent, and less smooth/gradual as the ones on his car - or at least the pics seems to look like that to me.

Like check it out...this is the one you have, right?




Here's the one he has on the car...





Also, John, I thought I told ya in the other thread that I found a place that still sells the M-sport parts: http://www.renovaauto.com/shop.do?ac...s&c=143000&m=0

Yeah, homeboy's in Taiwan. The car scene there is pretty ****** wild and expensive... It does offer some control to the lifestyle though because you see guys with tight *** cars like FD's and they're running them on a budget that' be equivalent to guys here doing stuff to Porsches. I'd love to bring my FD back there with me if I move back. Way to much fun and cops aren't ***** like they are here.

Btw... I love white FD's too.... mine's freshly painted so!

Yeah I'm sure, I bought mine from fd3s777. I'm sure you can still find someone with some leftover ones or someone who bought a set that is making copies. I have the front and rear fenders.

[QUOTE=kuroi FD]very clean everything flows well. QUOTE]

Everything flows well? Those rear flares don't flow at all! The acute angles between the flares and the bumper makes them look like they were random body kit pieces that some 16 year old installed himself so he didn't have to pay a body shop to mold them. They don't look like the were made for the FD at all.

Sorry, I love widebody kits and I was excited when I clicked the link. Maybe that made the disapointment that awaited me just that much worse.

Oh, and with a wing that big, you might as well go all out:


Don't mean to be rude... if you like it, awesome... I'll shut up. It just doesn't look clean to me at all.

Meh, I give it a 7 out of 10, mostly because its still an FD and I don't have an FD, so I can't really judge. I want those wheels for my FC though.

Hehe... somebody should get their eyes checked. Just bring a couple pics of your car with you to your appointment... I'm sure the optometrist will agree... =)

I like the car cuz its a different flavor, not a lot of people would alter their FD cosmetically the way you have, and thats what sets it apart because you have dared to be different. Something I would really enjoy seeing in person and parking my ride next to.
