Default New Bodykit by NOVUM (Japan)

New ARIES bodykit by NOVUM (Japan)

Designer is former head mechanic from TOP SECRET Japan, Yuji Takahashi. He spent alot of time and money to put this together but I think it came out great. The fenders DO NOT widen the vehicle at all but give it a very nice and functional GT style. All stages of design and manufacturing are done in Japan (yes, I know the prices reflect this but it's great quality and fitment is PERFECT!)







Pricing is as follows:

Front Bumper 98,000 Yen FRP 149,000 Yen Carbon
Side Skirts 86,000 Yen FRP 142,000 Yen Carbon
Rear Bumper 85,000 Yen FRP 139,000 Yen Carbon
Front Fenders 120,000 Yen FRP (Includes winker light assembly)

front and fenders look nice. Sides and rear look horrible. Btw, I'm assuming this is pretty new. How can u comment on fitment with such confidence?

The same reason I think it all looks amazing with confidence, I've seen it all in person here in Japan.

Reminds me of
Ings+1 Type E Long Nose with molded canards
SuperGT Fenders
TopSecret'ish SideSkirts
C-West Long Tail Rear Bumper E-Type with vents on it.

Looks pretty odd to me but I'm sure it would be different in person

...and I will assume this thread will be flooded with negative comments like the douchebag above me.

This guy should keep working as a mechanic and step away from designing. So much wrong there.

yeah, I'm sure they're much better off without the man who built Imamura's D1 Champion car, Miki's D1 Champion car, among the other countless creations TS is famous for...but, whatever. Keep cluelessly flaming away

Takahashi designed it for theproject he is currently working on...a new Z33 D1 machine...considering all the other ones he's built in the past like the one below, it should be pretty mean. The details and functionality of the kit will become more apparent as the car is completed
