Iforged,
I dobut that anyone would purchase this kit for any resason other then show. But seeing as you've build the rest of the car just as extreme is a relief. I frequent 6speed, but my username is McVicker. Looking forward to seeing how the rest of the project goes. Oh and you asking for negative and positive feedback.

I am just posting my car to share my project with everyone here on RX7. What I meant is not everyone is going to agree with what I am doing.

well since you're doing for the show, then you need to be going all crazy on the exterior and color. Please send me a pm on your updates iforged. Definitely i'm interested to see the finish product but definitely i'm not going to spend so much money on the bodykits.

The moe I see this kit the more I like it......Like someone already said, If you shave down those two lines that go from the bumper through the hood w/ rivets bumps, I think the kit would look a lot cleaner!! Just IMO.....

But looking good dude, Goodluck with the upcoming promo....

Actually it will be the same if the lighter than stock. The hatch is much lighter, the hood is much lighter, and the fenders are much lighter than the factory metal pieces.

Yeah we only have two days to paint it last time at SEMA with no time to colorsand it. I decieded to have to whole car stripped and repainted again. Its getting some interior work done right now, and some more engine mods, as well as a set of new 19/20 wheels. I will post pictures as well when its done.

its cool when someone can take a stock body fd to another dimension.I love the stock body as much as the next guy.but, some body kits simply improve on the original concept. what color?

other than your cheap counter parts out there- the real deal frp/carbon parts are very light in comparison to factory pieces. But if you have power- then what does a lb or two matter.

I really like the front of the kit. As for the back, im not that big on. I am glad that they kept the stock lights. I cant wait to see it done. Good luck on the car and at SEMS.

No one has said it yet but maybe you could get a group buy for some wheels for us. I would like to put some new shoes on my car. LOL

Sweet NSX. both are a little "Over done" but for Veilside they are not "half bad"
i would drive it.. i would just not buy the kit (too much $$...) but since that is of little objection to you.. enjoy it while ya can...

althought i would like to sugguest one thing if i may...

I'm so glad it looks like that.

That way no one watching FF will be able to identify it as a FD.

I disagree 100%. Look at what ff1 did to the resale value of the MK4 supra. Our cars have been going up a lot for around a year and a half but, I would like to see our car worth as much as theirs.
