I hate to say it but I like it. It looks like a exotic car. Kind of resembles the Ferrari F40.

It's ok if you want your FD to look like the Veilside Supra. It does resemble the F40 from the side. I don't really dislike it, but I'd never do that to one of my own. I'd put the money into engine mods, or buy another FD!

If you love it though, definitely go for it! It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, you have to please yourself. It would be incredibly unique and rare, which I really respect.

Although I would NEVER EVER put this on my car, the front is pretty neat looking. It actually looks like it almost belongs there, or looks like some kind of exotic. However, on the back it looks like they ran out of ideas and just made it flat. The back is horrible!

The front looks nice, but the rear looks terrible.

Anybody who spends 15K for a bodykit either has way too much money for their own good or rocks rolling around the empty space in their head. I'd rather put that 15K into a dedicated track FD.

I think honestly if I had the money to spend 15 grand on a body kit then I would already have like 6 or 700 horses worth of car to put it on. I've been waiting on a Fortune Model kit for the FD for a while now and I personally think it rocks. Sure it looks like a lot of other things put together but its the simple fact that no one has done anything like that before. The Fortune Model Supra kit is unreal and looks like no other Supra kit in the world, thats why it looks so good.
