Supercharged Rocket Bunny Widebody Conversion Build Thread Countdown to SEMA 2012
 

Hey guys just wanted to introduce myself. Just picked up a Hot Lava Orange Scion FRS last Friday at Norwalk Scion. We choose the loudest color Scion offered for this SEMA project. Here is picture of the car when we picked it up. We will be posting video and pictures on ClubFT86 as we start the transformation from stock to modded. The car will make its debut at the SEMA 2012 show in the Forgestar booth.

Not a fan of the rivets (at least conceal them better). But as far as widebody kits, I like the shape/fenders.

Yes the exposed rivets is not for everyone. We are debating of just blending them in or leaving them exposed. That design idea is still up in the air.

isnt the rocket bunny just a rendering?

The speedhunters 86X car has the full kit i believe.

Looks excellent, leave the rivets exposed for those in the know! :thumbsup:

Looking forward to seeing your progress! Good Luck!

Where can u order the kit??? GReddy still has not set a price???... Ive been waiting for it to me made available for ages..... Wonder what offset ill have to run??!..... CANT WAIT!!!!!!

You will be able to order direct through Greddy right around SEMA time. Give Greddy a call. We are getting one of the first ones in the country to prep the car for the SEMA show and the show scene after.

It looks a tad... thrown together. Its not aggressive enough for the exposed rivets and the lines are all off. The rear quarter panel piece should at the very least cover the hump and flow to the rear. The front fender piece looks peculiar stopping in the middle of the front bumper, it should extend down and flow into to the front lip spoiler. The fender badge area looks barren and blank without a badge, or trim piece, or vent, or something other than just a depression in the fender. This car looks great because the front flows to the rear, uninterupted lines. Fluid lines from front to rear keep your eyes moving over the length of the car. Its good for a rough draft, but i wouldnt put it on my car unless i was trying to hide rear-quarter panel damage.

Please PM me info.... Have they mentioned price yet? And any idea what offset u will run with?

Congrats =) go team Hot Lava

http://omgdogs.files.wordpress.com/2...og21.png?w=455 PLEASE FIND OUT AND TELL ME WHAT RIMS?, OFFSET?, AND IS THAT A ROOF SPOILER????!!!!!!

its turned out damn good! :) here's the wing being put!

It is so WILD, but I love it. Can't wait. My kit arrives Early Sept.

Awesome!! Keep pics coming.. Hope the rear bumper is designed to fit that exhaust.... Just how i would like to have mine.. Single titanium pipe exiting on left side....

Good lord that wing..... But the rest looks amazing

In for build updates.

So when did TRA become Greddy.

I quite like your past NSX builds.

Thanks. I have not built a JDM car since the NSX, so I am quite excited to build one again.

looking forward to this!

fenders cut! did they change the pcd or just added spacers on there? looks like a new adapter all together.

They put an adapter to try to test fit the rays wheels since those where 5x4.5

Subscribed! :happy0180:

how much is this kit running?

heres the full kit

When will we know OFFSET!!??? http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FfTez2Yng6...argh_small.jpg

I already have the offsets and widths. I will reconfirm when the first kit gets here. I do not want to run a stretched tire and a lot of negative camber.

What r the unconfirmed offsets?


I want to run stretch lol............

i actually really like this, looks similar to a 350z. would be nice if it was all one color though.

Looking for a nice vented carbon fiber hood right now.

Better Rear Shot

price starting from a$29990, which is a little bit more than 31000 usd I think.

It's too expensive for me but it's actually not really bad for a full body kit from bensopra, and I think there will be a lot of these on the street in one or two years.

wow nice !

this isnt a joke?... the kit costs more than the car does?

Welcome to the land of JDM parts lol

Kit looks nice but for $31K your at $56K for car and kit....


And then I bought a 2013 GT500

well..this kit is designed by bensopra man, if you take a look at how much they sell their body kits for lambo and gtr, this will make sense. also I think this kit just looks way much better than the others out there
