UPDATED PICTURES ON PAGE 5
Well i know a lot of people have been anticipating this build so here it is.
The story goes a little like this. A lot of members here know my car as the blue supra in my signature. When my cwest front/veilside sides/rear, veilside carbon overfenders/advan genII's and viper blue paint wasn't setting my car apart from everyone else, I decided to rebuild a car that would be completely unique and first of the community. The build of this car has taken nearly 3 years from my decision to go this route and it looks to be moving at a pace where an end is finally in sight. I've documented what I could along the way and taken some pictures. From here on, I'll be a lot more detailed into the build up including pictures from weekly visits to the body shop and building of the engine.
The body work was fabricated by Peter Chou (nsxpowered, http://www.downforce.biz/) of Downforce. I had very high expectations going into this project after seeing his previous work on several NSX's and the end product is nothing short of amazing. The fitment and finish quality of this kit is top notch. I've had all genuine JDM parts (ie cwest, veilside, etc) previously and the quality of this work sets the bar above and beyond those companies. The detail and workmanship will be apparent in the following pictures. I would highly recommend this kit to any individuals looking to go this route. I believe the complete kit consists of 29 peices.
The following peices are in carbon fiber
Front bumper
Front lip
Rear bumper
hood
front strakes (x2)
rear strakes (x2)
rear diffuser strakes (x2)
rear diffuser
rear spoiler, endcaps(x2), legs(x2), mounting base(x2)
ram air box
The following peices are in fiberglass
Front fenders (x2)
Side Skirts (x2)
Rear quarter panels (x2)
Front inner fender (x2)
Rear inner fender (x2)
Here're some pictures of the kit
