Beautiful Silver FD w/rare body kit!

I apologize in advance for the link to the "other" site, but it'll take me too long to repost all the images. Worth a look as it's the only pair of RE Amemiya side skirts like that in the country (courtesey of Rotary Extreme).

Hmmm, IMO, those chosen body parts just don't work together.... Oh well, as long as the owner is happy, that's all that counts!

BTW rx7tt95, I always love seeing pics of your car!

From: Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is full.
Ugh, that wing on the silver one.

I agree with what others are saying. Too much is happening on that car. Way too many curves, swoops, and vents.

I like those skirts i think, something different, i like both the cars, very nicely done imo, but the silver one would look better with a color coded hood, would make it look less fussy i think etc, still looks good

I think a stock hood and the removal of the canards would make for a more smooth flow.. Not knocking the parts, I just don't really like vents (Although they DO function) and the canards just seem to busy up the front. Not bad though. The wheels are awesome. As is the rear diffuser.

If I remember correctly, the rears are 18x10's or 10.5's...he does have 285's on the rear. Yeah the black car is mine :-) Thanks for the compliments Mahjik, need to do my interior (hint, hint). I heard you were backed up til April though....Ever cover entire door panels in carbon?

Honestly, the car looks very mean in person, very functional and clean. I've always wanted a silver FD...maybe someday soon. Interior is done up very nice as well, nothing crazy, custom seats, stereo, guages, etc...paint job is awesome too, more than I can say for the idiots that painted my car. A year later, they're still fixing "blunders" on her.

I dunno what it is, but every ricer and his/her mother likes to mess with me on the street. I think my car looks too tame. I'm going to add the rear diffuser and "possibly" a wing, but for now I have big plans for the interior which needs an entire rework. Rims may be going too for something a bit wider and polished. Non-car people always comment that my bronze volks just make the car look dirty. And that would be because Volks (adonized) don't hold up for crap under daily use.

I was going to line all three cars up but ran short on time (and space).

Yes, the skirts are AD9's. Only pair in the US.

Only thing I'd change on the car would be the headlights...I'd prefer the other RE kit, one with a single headlight with an inner air inlet like below:
