Yes, the JGTC looks like cardboards. If you haven't noticed by now, a lot of the race cars got equipment on them only for the functions without much considerations for look. To each his own, but IMO, JGTC NSX, especially the newer ones look crappy as street cars. With the racing graphics, contrasting colors, super low stance, huge rims/tires, blinding speed, intoxicating exhaust note of a true race car, its appeal is simply more than just the summations of the body panels. I think the 5 very exclusive NSX-R GT look like shit with the extended scoops but without the racing graphics/colors, wheels, and the super low stance. If one wants to put a JGTC look on a car, one should go all out full blown or you will end up having a rice car instead. Then of course in practical sense, you just cannot put a JGTC on the street without breaking all the lower body panels driving down the street. Granted, this car is not fully done yet, but I doubt seriously that it will ever come close to have the true JGTC look when it is done. We frequently laugh at Civics/Integras for having scoops, wings, little spats, half ass done stuffs and call them rice. Why all of a sudden, when we have here a TARGA top car with all these add- ons, cardboard stuff, and half ass JGTC look, you call it beautiful?1TITENSX said:LOL….I was looking for the finished product but not only was it posted in another thread but not by the original ownerHere is my .02 on it. I noticed that when the BRS kit was first introduced, people mostly had good things to say about it. Not taking into account the color, the kit is basically the same as the first one below. The only differences were the wing and rims. I think the kit looks hot so whoever does it will get props from me. For now, I don’t think the rims are meshing with the car right. Maybe if you did a BBK kit or did some attention to detail to the brake/rotor area. Also, the rims don’t have the right offset in the front. See the BRS kit below for comparison. I’ve never really liked the JGTC wings so I like your wing as it is now. So what else is left to do
Also note that BRS has IMHO, introduced the only widebody kit that looks identical to the real JGTC NSXs. LOL, for those who think it looks like cardboard...that's how the real JGTC NSXs look like so I guess they look like cardboard to
Well, beauty is in the eye of beholder. It is his car and he can do whatever with it. But in a forum, we just make comments positive or negative for sake of discussion. To each his own. To me, the car does not look right.
