Rocket Bunny Ver.1 or Ver.2? Opinions welcome! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

tristinpivnick · 01-27-2014, 08:29 PM

On the verge of buying a kit for the car and i'm stuck between the two versions Greddy has to offer. My hesitation with the first kit is that so many people have the older kit. Hesitation with the second kit is that it's not as aggressive (in my opinion) as the first kit. Feel free to comment, your opinions are welcome. Thanks

v2 is ugly, the front bumper sucks, and it also requires a 19" rim or you will look like this

The speedhunters version ?
The issue with that is it does not cut the rear fender so i really don't know how they fit a nice sized wheel

Yeah, the rear flare on the Speedhunters kit can just be drilled for the rivets but not even that is required as special adhesives can be used instead. The wheel they used fits well maybe because the tire is stretched so the wheel pokes past the stock fender but the tire tucks into the [maybe rolled] stock fender. Also, the RB fender might flare lower than the stock fender to close some of the wheel gap so the car looks lower than it is which allows for some clearance between the wheel and stock fender.

v1, more aggressive than v2 and I don't personally think 19" wheels are gonna look good on an oldschool jdm inspired widebody.

do whatever you think looks good, i personally like the v1 better in terms of fenders. i would rather pair the fenders up with a diff lip kit/bumper setup.

Yeah, i have this idea of v1 fenders, with a simple htauto lip kit and the rear oem diffuser

I was reading here http://www.speedhunters.com/2014/01/miura-san-next/ , but I see that too, yeh, its weird for a fender not to be cut and still functional with a wide setup!

Judging from the pic, there's no way this tire and wheel combo will fit without rubbing on every bumpy road.
