Some vinyl and 5 mins fixes that... For those that are bothered by it anyhow.

raven1231 · 11-09-2014, 06:54 PM

That's the whole reason I didn't get one. Completely ruined it for me

Obja · 11-09-2014, 07:01 PM

the R.S. 1.0 just sucks in general lolz.....

Ammunition · 11-09-2014, 07:12 PM

It was the first thing that made me kind of scrunch my face up when I saw pictures of the RS for the first time.

I saw one parked on the street the other day and snapped a picture of it -

I don't care for the kit in general (I think the new shark fin looks like a toy sailboat turned upside-down), but the part you pointed out has always bothered me the most - it just makes the car look like it had the kit blatantly slapped on after it was made, instead of being streamlined with the rest of the body and well-fitted like the kit for the GT 86.

I have looked at many, many pics and to tell you the truth I never even noticed it before.
I actually sort of like it where the points come up at the top sides as seen in Ammunition's pic.

Just as much as I believe Obja thinks they suck!!!!!!!

1GiantTurtle · 11-09-2014, 08:08 PM

the only good thing i can think of for the rs 1.0 is that the amber side markers looks decent on it am i right?

Not as good as these!

Slowmotion · 11-11-2014, 09:24 AM

I agree with you completely, that is why I did this with mine

Not prefect, but it'll do for now.

Jyn · 11-11-2014, 10:09 AM

^that actually makes me understand why they left it yellow... Looks like a black hole or something

calmtigers · 11-11-2014, 11:07 AM

Wtf they don't come with fog lights

FRSHunter · 11-12-2014, 02:56 AM

I think they purposely left it like that so its easier to put in fog lights. If it was a close fit like the JDM one or other lip kits like the Five Axis one the dealer would have to remove the lip then place the fogs.
