Aftermarket hatch question

HI!... I was looking around Grounddynamics and I came across this picture

I was wondering if anyone knew where one could get that hatch? or is it only a one off custom one? ANYONE KNOW?!

i think that might be a wise sports (japan) piece judging by the car.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Those are gross, only noobs like those. It'll make the already big blind spot into an absolutely huge one where you'll be able to misplace whole semi trucks with b trains. That's dangerous and it'll make it more difficult to drive. Plus it's likely to cost you a few thousand once it's delivered, painted and fitted.

The FC's visibility is already blocked enough by the B pillars.. the last thing you need to do is make it worse.

If you want your car to "look" (and to some extent, be) fast, get an FRP hatch frame with lexan windows, and hatch pins (...unless you'd rather not look ricey and just leave the original latches on it).

Reguardless, that'll save you like 30 pounds... or something.
