Veilside Mazda RX-7 VS D1-GT

Any pictures of this kit (I have done a search) - other than the official Veilside pics
Veilside Mazda RX-7 VS D1-GT
If I only purchase the front bumper only look good with a stock R1 (stock wheels, winge etc)

i'm not really positive what you just asked, but i think yo uare considdereing getting a VeilSide kit? well... my opinion on that is that its a waste of money. ugly kits that do nothing for the looks/performance of the car.

it's funny how people hate it just because it is made by veilside, but if it had a name like Mazdaspeed, c-west or Re Amemiya everybody would be all over it...

Vielside has their own style and popular consensus says that it's not a good one.

Um, yeah.

I think the popular consensus is that Mazda got the styling perfect and everything else just looks tacked on and detracts from the car's lines.

that's wonderful and not a rotary engine...

secondly, to give reason to my comments, i think the VeilSide kits are ugly as sin and "no matter who takes a dump, you still get a pile of sh*t"

Although Veilside my be crazy, their style is unmistakeable. And about Veilside = rice? Have you seen their car at Tokyo Auto Salon 2005? It's crazy!! No ricer in this whole dman country could afford that conversion. You have to be big ballin to pull that kit off . . . .
