I have to say, I love the look.

In agreement with a lot of the comments here – I'll combine that with some real horsepower.

Although, isn't the original idea of this thread to talk about the blog and the originator? His red 86 is probably not stock under the hood.

The background story of RB is great – solid idea creating the blog.

I may be the only one but I love that wing on the RB and if i keep my FR-S and not sell it to get a Lotus Elise, I may RB it and FI. Put it in shows and the rivets def. leave those for the aggro look.

Now with the rivets filled in, I think that goes from a decent/aggressive kit to pretty great. I just know my budget won't support wide body kits and especially the extra $$ of filling in the rivets!! :-)

I personally love it.
go back to the first post, see our blog. we talk about it He's definitely the OG, they told him the RB wouldn't sell, he proved them wrong

Thanks bud There's some pretty amazing stories behind the true JDM brands and parts, things we didn't even know so over the next little while we're going to be releasing a bunch of these blogs to spread the good word
