- Blue: Side skirts looks identical to red except the front fender piece looks lower than the red.
Are those rear bumper skirts the same? Blue has lines that are more defined!

NurSpec doesn't make this wing. AFAIK there is no official source nor Toyota literature calling this the "Nur-Spec" body kit. I think people on this forum just made that name up and keep using it incorrectly. In Japan it's part of the Factory Tune package and in Australia it's the GTS Option Pack. Also available in parts of Europe and the Middle East; not sure exactly what it's called in those places but pretty sure it's not "Nur-Spec."

The name might have been conjured up from the spy shots of the FT-86 prototype being tested around the Nurburgring with this kit. But the car has been officially out for over a year and it's funny how we still use an unofficial name to describe it.
