I have a name for your car, "Darth Vader"
I left him a 4-pack of Dogfish 90Min IPA tonight, see if I can convert him to American Craft Brew, sadly I forgot the 120 on my way out.

I love the look espeically with the RS tail. That car is definitely going to be a head-turner.
Any Rear-End shots to show it's Wide-***...

Its not to my taste, but there again I do not live in the US with nice wide open roads.

Great project though and thank you for sharing.

That man is a machine! I'm blown away by his work ethic. Cheers for going with something that ruffles feathers, good and bad.

axl911..."Wow....The bumper & flares make the RS wing dainty."

I know, we have been going back and forth with the idea of running it with the RS Wing by itself or adding the large RWB Wing which I'll have better pictures of later. Regardless of the final decision, Nakai-san will mark each so that I can make quick work of changing them myself (4 bolts) based on my desire.

Good idea, I'm liking the RS wing with the crazy flares (rather than with the crazy wing). As already said, unique from other RWB stuff.

What brand are the wheels btw?

And thanks for sharing the info & pics, appreciated.
