I was expecting complete shit but was pleasantly surprised. Not a big fan of bodykits either.

Pharoahe you know we both like the same stuff.... I like it as well, at least Wald means business and not just sells a standard bumper with a stupid vent for 5k . . lol

I will bet the next person who post here will say it's crap.

ups, Brian was faster with the first reply, that makes us tree then . . .lol

I'm shocked that I like that too.

I'm a natural born loather of body kits but that's a good 'un.....

Any idea of prices??

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.

I like the front end but the rear arches are very Hakosuka like, perhaps IF it was
color matched and on the front as well I may like it better. I like it and I don't @
the same time. If I had a R35 I would probably not put it on, I am not a big fan of
body kits, although my car has one, came that way. I like the fog lights on the kit,
it gives it a better attitude.

Looks very nice, the old bad point I can see is the rear arch

I actually like the fact that the rear is Hakosuka black - if I had an R35, I'd have one in red and have the arches black, or the car black and the arches matte black. It's an homage to the original. Or body paint them, they have much the same look and feel as the Porsche 993 GT2 bolt-on fenders. Are the entire front fender panels replaced with wider versions?

I need more wing though. Like the Amuse wing. The front splitter and side skirts are way happening. Good stuff.

Colour coded arches would look much better than having it that plastic.

Overall not too bad, I just think there is slightly too much going on at the front now.

i'm not into aftermarket bodykits but if i was.......i'd probably wonder if they've further reduced the ground clearance at the front which i would have thought could be a problem as unlike certain other supercars you can't press a button to raise the car up for speed bumps
