r-magic kit...

dont like it much myself, but if thats what floats your boat...

i bet somebody reading this thread is just dying to call it "rice"...
personally, i think that term is really overused on this forum. just my opinion though.

yeah, I like the whole thing, although the cheapest I've heard of getting it for was 10,000 and that was when speedlab was around...

I think it looks pretty good.

Rice is definitely way overused on the forum.

I hate the wings, but the rear bumper *could* be sweet... I imagine a stock rear with the fins... or one of those F1 type things, C/F... Like the orange RX-7 in turbo this month but with a stock bumper...

Yeah the one in that picture is too much but I just wanted an example of that rear. Which kit is on the Orange RX-7. When I saw that turbo mag it didn't go into much detail on the car.

That first rear bumper is ugly ***! the orange is ok, but that ugly cheap looking black plastic valence is weak.
Why make an FD look more like an old 3000gt? those doors on the orange FD are intriging. Subtle but maybe too Viper. That might indicate cylinder envy.

I think the best rear bumper is the stock one..with a CF diffuser (like the orange one there). RE makes two different kinds of diffusers, both look sweet. That's what I plan on doing to my car, anyways..

I don't like the rmagic bumper because it has too many hard edges.

the aluminum wings CAN look ok, I think..but most of the time, I don't like them.

but damn those are some fat tires on the orange one.

those 'cheap' black plastic valence happens to be carbon kevlar rear diffuser made by RE AMEMIYA,which was also used in there JGTC race car.

Kinesis K58's. Slightly over $1K each! Very high quality though. Probably the best. Same level as Fikse, HRE, Forgeline, etc.

and

while the second is only an "undersweep".

RE did make another version of thier diffuser. One that looked better, IMO. But I can't find that version anywhere.
