The front bumper looks like a tamer version of the NRF kit for the SI. The front fenders/sideskirts/rear fenders are a little more insane lol...

Just been keeping up with these Japanese websites for years, so I'm always, actively checking their sites, blog, etc. You can check NRF's blog site, keep up with them on there, or just keep checking in on this thread, and I'll keep you guys updated.

umm.. interesting butt at 150 new car sales / month x (10%, potential market) x your share of market = .20%

Butt really it should be 150x.03x.1 = .45 kits per month in sales volume

Not worth the investment as a business.
