I will say that I really hated on you when you started out, but this project is coming along nicely and the guy is doing some excellent work on it. Can't wait to see it painted and such.

*foot in mouth*

that porsche jaquemond is gorgeous. but i like those porsche's just how they are with a nice drop and some low offset wheels, and wide fenders.

[Dano]

Agreed, that Porche is absolutely stunning! Great job on the work thus far and I can't wait to see the diffuser integrated in!

dont know if it's been discussed, but what paint scheme are you gonna be applying sky?

well I'm shooting for the clean exotic look so I'm painting it all Mercede-Benz silver, it should look good with the wheels!

[Sky240PWR]

personally, i still dont like the way the kit flows in certain areas, like the rear of the car when viewed from just about any angle, and how there is no contrast anywhere on the body, it looks like some kind of polymorphus blob because of how the light reflects off of the painted fiberglass. the lines between body panels look very tight, which in this case is a bad thing. it looks like a hotwheels car or something...

but im just going off of the picture of the red car you supplied. if your body man is as good as you say, yours should look better, right?

anyways, not trying to give you crap, just stating an opinion.

I'm really not sure what you are saying, I think the kit flows nicely but thats just me. MY body man is really good at what he does and it will look better in every way possible campared to Jacquemonds demo car, there's isn't put together very well! and I'm not mad at your comment but I would like you to explain what you mean, I'll give you a pic

they made that kit after I bought mine. I like the front bumper but hate the lip of it, and the back bumper is differnt, I like my exhaust holes!..lol

[Sky240PWR]

when I droped the hood off, I through the fenders on with the hood and took a couple pics with my phone, not the best quality pics, I'll have better one sometime this week.

from the side

[USsil80]

looking good...

[PantherRacer]

maybe they hated you because your caps lock button was stuck?I wanted the jacquemond kit one point in time. but I think I'll go for a smaller more subtle widebody lololol.

[koukimon]

that hood is pure SEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

how much did it set you back again. and is there a price for S14

[Mez_DK]

i want a body kit like that.

it reminds me of the badass rx 7 veilside fortune model bodykit.

(tokyo drift)

[koukimon]

i bet you do. your all like fnftd FTW!!!!!1111!!!!!. just like that right?

[the_momo]

i bet you knew that was hoko maku san's personal car before the movie right? of course you did. (fyi, thats mr veilside for us yanks.) i read taht they sold that car to universal for 50k. and it cost somewhere upwards of 250k to build.....sadness. teh jacquemond kit is fantastic also, id like to see a veilside silvia, but thatll never happen.

thanks, I wish it was the rx 7, I love that car! If you watch a movie like FNFTD you have to tell yourself it's not a documentury, it's a movie and then you will enjoy it, if you go in there thinking it's going to be our lifes on the screen, you will hate it!....but maybe that's just me......the same with the other ones

well at the time, no one could get me the hood in a month-month and ahalf, I found a shipping company the shipped it to Chit-town in that time frame, so all together around $900, you can get one for a S14 for around 800-900 from Raretrick but it will take between 2-6 months before you get it.

here's one on the S15 conversion, sexy!

there you go buddy veilside zenki

[Dano]

/\/\ Veilside zenki looks like poop. /\/\

eww.

[gogg]

The hood is badass, i think with all that money your dropping you should get like photoshop for dummies though, heh.

[Sky240PWR]

yeah but thats just the thing, all my money goes into my car, I really don't spend any money on anything else untill it's done, even if it's on $15-30 bucks.

[koukimon]

thats becuase it a zenki................then again the veilside kouki looks exactly the same(headlights help)

[Mez_DK]

damn, i guess im not allowed to like a car from the movie.

[Sky240PWR]

well, the hood, front bumper, lights and fenders don't fit all together like we hoped, and to make them all fit(show quallity), it would take alot of time, which =$$. he said it would be faster(also cheaper) to glass the front bumper and fenders together and just work with the hood, so thats where I'm at now. After that he's going to do the front bumper, make it look alot more aggrassive(thats why it has ducktape on it) it will look like the front bumper on my sig.

[continental_drift]

the front end has taken on the look of an FD rx7.

[Kenrik]

Lol that's what I was thinking... dam it's like 10 different cars meshed into one.
