The rear looks like it should, for replica JGTC. Wonder if thet's their exhaust or a custom job? You obviously can't use anything else... Wonder if the graphics come with it? Wouldn't look right without racing graphics...

Not a fan, but I appreciate the detail put into the kit.

I actually love this kit...i always wondered why they never made a kit like this for the extremists out there. I do believe however that you would need some serious **** done to your car to pull this kit off. I like that kit but not that particular car with the heavy *** wheels

I think it looks ok for those seeking to make a replica GT500 car....I am not a huge fan of the front lip tho and would rather it look identical to the real car...If it we're me I would just take the INGS kit and make it custome metal fendered widebody for the same price.

It looks just like a anorexic JGTC car. Its a good try but the thing its missing is the massive width those cars have. Just my 2 cents. Not bad, but not great.

I did a photo comparison of the real jgtc car and this car and using the measurements of headlights and various other componets that would not change the kit is only 2" narrower than the real deal. IM GETTING AMPED, and have contacted them for a price. Also I know people are saying uck for the rear bumper but look at it from a performance standpoint, It replicates a nascar bumper in every way and that is really good to lower drag. As for the front bumper It looks very accomadating for and intercooler to allow maximum cooloing. Although Im sure every aspect is not purposefull You will certainly have alot of people calling your car a true sports car. I for one do alot of autocrossing and road coarse racing and I know that crowd of people would love it. But cant say it would look right at the drag strip

You could also get your money back by snowplowing the walmart parking lot in the winter with that front plow.

Well I actually called About the Kit today and got all the info just to say HELL NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! They want about $6800 just for the basic kit that does not include the front and rear diffusers, Canards or the spoiler. If you want the rest of the stuff it will total just shy of 10,000k. Let me be the first to say that they will sell almost none of these. Plus the fact that the salesman I spoke to sounded Like a 15 yrold boy that had to put me on hold and ask his daddy about the information.

JGTC inspired kit. I dont mind at all. Widebody kits are not made for daily usage. They are simply for show or race. I want to see more JGTC inspired kits!
