I love the Veilside kit. The FD is one of the few cars that can look good with that *** wing. It is only rice if you can't back it up!

Veilside is ugly . . . trust me, it's not just "the name".

lol. I won't lie though...at times, I really miss the stock R2 front bumper. But then that feeling goes away quickly

The new skirts look hot. Too bad they're a knock-off mix of the C-west and Mazdaspeed GTC... The new spoiler looks pretty badass too. The front bumper still looks funky w/ all the weird angles and curves...as usual.

Nice car...I'm sure a great guy, and of course,

for rotaries in drifting. But the guy needs a lot of practice... I was yelling my head off for him at JGTC, but pretty much all the USA guys (minus the GTO guy and prob the guy w/ the RSR S2K I think) need a LOT of practice.

The car already had the kit on it when i bought it.

Although I still kinda like the sideskirts, im going to see how they look with a 99spec bumper. Ive already got a 99 wing sitting in my closet, right next to that veilside double decker. For now im wingless.

Ill just have to see how everything looks together when i paint it in a few months, then ill decide to ditch or keep the sideskirts and rearskirts.

btw, ive had plenty of compliments about the sideskirts, most people think they came stock on the car when they see it. Veilside gets a bad rep for the front bumper and wing IMO.
