Talking Wide Body FD Under Construction at Shine Auto Project

I stopped by Shine Auto Project on Sunday night to drop off some parts and have a chat with Makito Nakai. The FD that has been sitting outside at the shop for the past year or longer finally got painted. Some teaser shots

I have seen this car there both times I have gone with the wide body but it wasn't painted yet. It looks kind of the same color as Makito's fc.
