Yup that _has_ to be a replica. Or a heavily damaged original.

For that price I would just buy it and resell it

If its legit...then sir thats a killer deal. Selling it actually makes sense lol unless you actually want v1. I'm personally a fan of v1 over v2. Although v1 has become pretty common. Not that thats a bad thing.

"Pretty common" is always what I hear people say, but a) there aren't a huge amount of 86 platforms on the street, and of those, I'd have no problem laying down money that <1% of them have a rocket bunny kit on them. Sure, like at SEMA I'm sure there's a lot. But a) there's a reason and b) are you taking it to SEMA? The vast majority of people you encounter will not have one or probably even know what it is.

I think v1 looks way better than v2 personally, but it's really up to you.

You are right. "Pretty common" is a forum notion that I fall into too.

Ya I'm going to purchase the kit and then decide. I just really like the wide body ever since the 240, I actually was going to buy a 240 but due to frame damage and rusted out frames I decided I wanted a frs and ya quite a bit of people have rocket bunny kits but you don't see them every day and as far as car shows go I plan to mostly stay along the east coast but might venture off who knows.

V1.2? elaborate please. $1000 for just the fenders or the lips and diffuser included? or even the GT wing? if it's the whole kit including the GT wing I will be really mad for buying my kit for 5 times that price.

Honestly I like the v1 a lot more and for that price even though I currently am stuck to function > form would switch to my desire to slam the shit out of this car
