You know in pictures they look kinda odd, but there was a black one @ Rotary Extreme years ago and it looked pretty cool...

You could buy another FD for the price of some of those kits.

I'd probably do this:



But for 10K+ I'd rather just buy another car.

don't think they sell the kit but not impossible to do...just replicating the front bumper would way too complicated.

^They no longer sell that kit, you would have to get it on the used market. Only one re-amemiya still makes is this one and it is 15k+

I like it! Importing a RHD already built with this kit would be the best way to go about it!

The back half is the best looking part.

Plus, with this kit, you could fix your poor OEM/sleek kit lighting problems for good.
