I think it looks tasteful, one of the few wide-body FD kits that do. The color looks beautiful from here, are there any photos which show it's depth better?

That is some top notch bodywork. I would like to have at least an amateur level of competence in bodywork, be able to fix dents and stuff like that. I think that body guys are not always given the credit or recognition they deserve, for their skills.

I like the Vertex Ridge Wide Body myself because it is not to aggressive and the fitment is perfect! I did not go with the Ridge when I did my current kit because the insurance would not cover it but I did get the vertex kit and I could not be happier!

I know I am going to take a beating for saying this but I really love this white re-amemiya ac-07 fd - needs new wheels. Yes I know the fd is not a porsche, blah blah blah.

Tamon makes a kit that looks nearly identical, some things are a bit different but thats becaue it has to comply wiht the fd's body shape and doors, the car in the pic was completely custom...oh yea, the tamon kit costs somewhere near 35K, shipping isnt free either...thats 3 veilside kits and rims combined
