Vertex Edge Widebody FRS

One of my buddys at Vertex USA sent me this:



This is their rendering for the kit they will produce for this car. Hopefully they'll have a non widebody version as well for those who would rather not cut up the rear quarters on a brand new sub 25k car.

Vertex is absolutely AMAZING quality. Some of the best fitting FRP kits being produced today. I had it on my 14 and everything lined up FLAWLESSLY. You definitely get what you pay for with Vertex. Est price will probably be between 2-3k for the full thing...but damn, this thing is SEXY!

I also had vertex on my S14, and SC300. Iv loved the design and quality of vertex's products.

This render looks to move away from their clean aggressive lines of the past, in lieu of more vents? More complexity?

I like this render, but it doesn't look like an image of the current Vertex too me

I agree. Edge is their new lineup. Much more aggressive and complex from their other lines(Lang, Ridge etc). The only other car I know of to have the Edge kit for it is the S15.

I love the way this kit looks. It's super aggressive. Though for an everyday street car, it is a bit too much for me. Hopefully, as stated previously, they'll have one a bit more subtle.

Doesn't look like a FRS to me.

No pics of the front. I'm sure there will be some eventually as they get closer to the that actual final product. Somebody should do a photoshop of this and take away the vents behind the rear wheel and the one up front behind the wheels. Leave the vent down the door line.

I got a feeling that it would look much more badass and clean.

The vent behind the rear tire on the side (not on the rear) and the one leading out into the door on the side kinda make it feel too complex. Without it, I think it'l look a little cleaner IMO. Sure I know this took some work to render, but getting the crtizisms will help improve something more people wanna buy.

Great job nontheless and thanks for sharing!
