I don't think i've seen a slow Rocket Bunny 86 yet, they have all been forced induction. I think if you can afford a $4,000 body kit you can afford to make your car faster then a civic.

Am I the only one that very much dislikes this kit? I think it's horrible.

Nope it's definitely awful.

Plus if they actually are going to release the TRD griffon kit... Why in the hell would you not get that?!

But that Civic will be better looking, usually. Taste's differ, but that thing IS ugly.

RB kit on yours, then? We were talking about an FR-S with RB vs. a Cvic. The Civic is not the most attractive car, yet it's more attractive than a drop-dead sexy FR-S when covered in an RB clown suit. Especially with that dumbass wing and unfilled rivets.

So let me get this straight you clicked on a Rocket Bunny thread, knowing you do not like the Rocket Bunny body kit to waste your time talking about how ugly it is. Your opinion is your opinion but we would have been better off without it here...smh

Would you prefer that only people who have the same opinion comment in a thread? That doesn't seem like the best way to foster constructive dialogue, which is personally why I come here.

Although I would never do a RB kit to my car, I do think it looks pretty aggressive/good. Nice info.

Yeah definitely, to each their own! I personally really like it (would definitely fill in rivets, duckbill trunk and no wing, built engine + turbo) but understand/respect why others wouldn't. We don't make the kit, just something we offer and thought it would be interesting to get a bit of the history behind it.

Some of you don't really understand Miura Kei's personality behind these kits. You have to understand that he's straight up OG Japanese and he's been building aggressive kits for over 20 years under TRA Kyoto. If you've ever been lucky enough to experience the Japanese street/circuit racing culture you'll realize that their tastes in modifying are super loud and somewhat obnoxious.

I personally love it.
