The antenna is a the size of a gorilla dildo, the wheels, though quite lovely, have nowhere near enough tire on them, and the wing looks like something Paul Walker would eat off of...no thanks

here you go. changing a black hood to white is kind of tough, especially with the reflections in the picture...



those of you who think the wing looks like the NurSpec or TommyKaira wing, are overlooking the big lower piece that crosses the width of the trunk... I personally would prefer one of the others but at least we have the choices.

Thanks.
Since they don't have the parts listed for sale yet (I'm guessing this is their demo car for the Tokyo Auto Salon, coming up soon), I can't be 100% sure. But I'm guessing the carbon-fiber looking bits are carbon-fiber, and since their website is frp-craft.com, I'd guess the painted bits are FRP. (I hope that didn't sound too sarcastic).

Nice guessing!
Unfortunately, I always hope can buy the whole body kits which made by PP or PU or ABS.
It should be more durable from those materials.
FRP and carbon fiber might easily to crack; especially those kits are very close to the ground.
However, there are super limited options of the whole body kits (front lip, side skirts and rear spats made by PP or PU or ABS for BRZ.

I wonder how this kit would look on hot lava... I'm thinking if/when I start doing stuff to my car I want to go with an orange/black combo. Though if I had that hood I'd maybe have it mostly painted to match the car and leave the vents black or something like that.

Ooh... I really like that. It's a good thing I've got some time before I'll be able to afford adding stuff to this car because it's going to take for ever to make up my mind which direction I want to go.

there's a couple different ways you could go with this.
#1


#2



if it were me I'd go with #1. IMO the big center vent is just too much in black, if you were to do it you might as well leave it all unpainted.
