those front fenders needs to rounded off more. the car looks ok, but i would mind seeing that on the road.

But on a different note, if they made the headlights just one structure it'd look better, or take away the high beams completely and make it smoother on the front. plus the back to me looks really choppy, like they ran out of time and just cut off w/e they didn't need. It doesn't look too good right now, but... i love widebodies so i can't completely hate it.

this is a crappy photoshopping job but...

no because then it would be too empty up front like the 92-96 front bumper, the reason why people opt for the 97 cuz it looks more modern up front not so boring and smooth.

Default where to call

a school in Japan called NATS made the kit, it was a one off for TAS2007 I believe.. I read somewhere that each team had only $9000 to work with, I assume that includes the price of the car, so that might account for the fact that there are some gaps, and the sides/rear fenders look a bit unfinished, but then again it's a school that makes crazy body work so you'de think the student's time fabricating the kit wouldn't be part of the "cost'.

If you search for nats you can find them.

Here's their mini NSX..

They used the honda BEET? as the base.. I think that's what it is called.

the wing isnt wide enough for the car, and it looks funny without all the stickers(like most jgtc cars) also i think it would look much better with a side exit exhaust
