It was a short time seller on the green.... It actually came from the Factory, but it wasnt popular, so they stopped making that color

i saw a green one at MADS - kinda like a british racing green. I didn't like it.

I like the first one. It reminds me of an Aston Martin for some reason. I think it makes the car look tuff. I'd like to have my FD that color.
The second green FD looks . Stupid ricers.

I like the 1st one.. I think that's the JUN front, and it looks alot better than I thought it would on a car.

This was discussed a while back. The roof scoop is used in rally cars and some race cars which remove the A/C. So the scoop brings in air for the driver/co-driver.

However, I doubt it's functional on the RUN car there. I don't believe they sell that to the open market anyway.

If you guys wanna see a nice looking FD in green check out this months (April) Option 2. Looks like they went through the complete RE Amemiya catalog and grabbed whatever they could.

That's because RE Amemiya built it themselves!
