A very cool site!! Thanks for linking us to it. I especially like how all the images are "whited out" and then become "active" once you move your cursor over them.

I thought it was interesting how they've mounted a rear-view camera in this picture:

Furthermore, if you guys think you've got a body kit. Check out this one. I took a double-take when I saw this because I thought that it was a Viper at first (if you look at the side):

Those cameras on the black car are cool!! Must get some good video from the cameras mounted on the trunk and the bottom driver side door.

Anyone know what type of cameras they are and quality of the video? Look like they are pro grade.
 
I like the trunk lip spoiler, it fills in the space nicely beneath where the OEM spoiler used to be and transitions into the big ass wing rather nicely also.

From the same page as the exhaust, btw that exhaust is a custom job, so I don't think you will be able to buy it.

You can see that crazy quarter fender on that blue nsx, before been painted. Looks custom too.

Seems like they are an private NSX club, and a lot of stuff appears to be custom work done by their shop for their cars only.

This is actually Top End's main page, the geocities page is their Parts page.

Just go through the Spec page, and you will see their members. You will see that yellow NSX prior to the CF hood, and Pop Nishimura's NSX which I think was on Super Street a while ago.

I guess it's mandatory in Japan to alter the otherwise already perfect looking NSX huh?

I know! I was trying to find a picture of an unmolested NSX, and couldn't find any. What's the deal with all those aftermarket wings? I imagine there's a big dumpster somewhere filled with factory rear spoilers.

hehee... love those Japanese movies.
Anyone ever seen 'Gamera' (giant flying turtle) ... that was funny.

yeah..funny about all the cars being modded: i don't know why japanese car manufacturers even bother ... just sell it as a shell with optional bodykits.

The ones for Katsu and Yana still look unspoiled... but red!
