Going with the JP Type-N full kit:

I always liked the No-Luck kit, but good luck trying to get it.

I would go Type N FR and or Rear and then INGs N-spec sides (they line up better with the JP front).

But Im biased

JP Type-N I say. I've never seen that kit and it stands out, but it isn't obnoxious.

the TK front end is so rare, it'd be a shame to get rid of it.

The tommy Kaira would look awesome with the unique FMIC from the JWT kit underneath it. The two look like they were made for each other. I say keep it.

if you can get the DoLuck, i think that looks the best.

but if not, finish off your TK kit and get the side pieces and the turtle emblems and seats

I love the TK kit but got the Nismo cause it was easier to get.

What about the TK sides and rears?

Maybe the Veilside V1 sides would look good too!

i could get the sides, but they aren't much and are very expensive for what they are. I could get full side skirts from another kit and paint them for what those cost unpainted.

TK never made any rears.

Veilside V1s sound like a potentially good option though.

What about nismo sides with a veilside v1 rear
