That would be nice a dark grey/gray with a silver instead of the black.

Love the kit! I would go blue/black but I love blue...even though my FD is VR.

I wonder what one would look like with the center color grey and the other color black? Everyone I've seen has had the black center, just thought I'd like to see some different center colors.

\/ On the other hand, you could go green/orange \/

The yellow and red one was just advertising the kit itself actually... not the whole car for sale.

That orange one from the movie is a total original. Only 5 were made.
The other one, just a random one.

VeilSide Japan made a lot of them.

Fotune RX7 is a 3 month wait.

Each kit is made when the order is put in.
They don't stock full kits in Japan, nor do we in USA.
So, if person-x ordered a kit today, it would be made specifically for person-X.
There is only one person who builds the Fortune kits.
