Wow.. When you mention the fenders, you mean the panels above the wheel arches on the left and eifht side of the bonnet right? (Sound so extremely noob here)
Or you guys talking about those plastic bits sticking out of the front bar?

They are Kaze right. I can get them. Thats where my taillight covers came from. Have the paper catalogue at home here. Cant read the bloody thing, but they sell on Yahoo and Ive already had the guy in Japan buy direct before.
Heres their Site:

You know I was going to initially ask you but I felt bad, was wondering if there's a way I could get them on my own so I wouldn't have to hassle you.
Can you please find out for me if that's ok? I swear if I end up getting these which I most likely will I'm going to give you a bit extra for your troubles!

Thanks man
All those ftos in japan have project F's and scissor doors, not to mention they're modded to the sh*t...!
That must be so normal for them up there, FTOs over here that have been modded to be so called show cars up there must be a joke to them

Yeah, but look at how cheap they buy the car for. ... I am sure if you got your FTO for 5k, you could spend another 5 on the body, and that is probably the price you bought it for in Aus ...

Yea true that..
EDIT: Actually if those parts were readily available here, I'm sure everybody here would do the same too, was just pointing out how much better they have it over there from a modifier's view
I can't stop looking at this pic, got it set as my wallpaper at work

Hmm is it the whole vinyl art thing which is turning people off?
I like it cos it just looks really chunky at the front, not a huge fan of the art on it but the interior / fenders / bonnet does it right there
I'm guessing it probably is the vinyl art that puts people off
Edit: I actually just noticed he's done his roof lining red as well, not a bad idea

It's just too busy.. I don't mind the bonnet, vented guards etc.. but yeah, they need to get rid of all the brand name stickers & vinyl decals on the car..
I could probably even deal with rear wing & wing flaps on the front bumper if it didn't have all the stickers.. but I still think that the front bumper would look better stock..

Oh definitely HATE that wing, doesn't matter what car it is, GT wings / T spoilets will always, always be ugly.
The things that caught my attention was the beefy look. The decals would look nice if they were properly placed, and if the art was more subtle, it does go overboard a bit.
I love that bonnet, looks much better than the ones you can get down here.

See, this one does much more for me:
And I like some of the bits on this one too (especially the taillights):

yea I've seen that car before, looks insane, I think the paintjob does it all. If it was any other stock colour it wouldn't look anywhere near as good.
Would that paintjob cost the same as just getting your car resprayed black or any other normal colour or a bit more?
