I think that's one of the smoothest flowing kits I've ever seen, but the wheels are a bit too wide though.

What kit is it?

hehe, tires look really weird (bad) in my opinion but the kit does have some nice sexy curves... not too sure about the dual side vent either. looks like lots of money and hard work though props!

I can hear those tires crying for help, they need wider tires unless it is going to be a drift car.

Good work, not my style.

Nice kit, it does flow very well. Looks more aggressive with the twin ducts.

one of the better kits. Im not a big fan of them though. i like the stock look, with maybe an aftermarked bumper for more airflow. Those tires are way to small for them rims and the rims stick out just a lil too much.

All you need now is some little wire wiskers( curb feelers) And you'l be straight pimpin!!

Just kidding. The tires are way to smalll as everyone has already pointed out. What color is the final product going to be?
The kit looks pretty good though.

Thats GOT to be beyond the manufacturers recommended wheel width for those tires. The sidewalls are practically horizontal. I'm not a fan of scruching too big a tire on a small rim either, but thats ridiculous.

Kit looks decent. For a kit.

He had two. Which one? The 1st or last ver. of his car. I liked his last very much. That car owned ***. Too bad the new owner had to wreck it.

Those are wises sports front and rear fenders. I don't think I'll have those 12J on, cuz it is just too big. Instead will put on 10 J rear and 8.5 J front same rims. Will post pics when it is done. We have 3 cars doing the same project. Final color will be red, pearl white and yellow.

Search the photo gallery under his name. You'll see the first one he had was a purple one and the second one is asuka blue. I like the asuka blue one.
