I like the 2nd one rice or not if you can pull this off it will be one of the Nicest FBs ive seen. What car are these kits intended for or are you going to create the whole kit?

i like the 2nd rendition since it looks like an NSX mock-up. i'd like to retain the stock rear tail-lights and rear bumper though. the rear bumper extensions prove no aerodynamic worthiness since it'll only generate more drag. the factory one is better in a performance viewpoint. but if you're going to do this for a show FB, then by all means do it.
let's see a stock rear left alone w/o the gaudy 'invader series' one.
so i vote for the 2nd one minus the 'invader' rear bumper and tail lights conversion.

i chose the bottom. i like how the vent goes down at an angle similar to the b pillar kinda like a mirror effect along the door. so what rims you goin with? or will that be another poll?
EDIT: nevermind...CCWs would look real seck-c on that...i agree about the rear tho...keep the stock taillights and bumper...

As an ex NSX owner, I really liked its shape and have no intention of turning a pure gen 1 into a cheap pretend look alike. The gen 1 has a beautiful shape. With larger whwwls it is more attractive than the majority of recent sports cars.
My vision of what a Gen 1 should be like is AJC 13B, great simple looks with a 400rwhp engine.

How about no scoop on the side.... unless the motor is in the rear! The fake scoops take away from the "i mean business" look of the car.
Everything else looks great.
On another aspec is the wheel arches, 3rd gen arches come up almost to the hood. I'd keep that look and modify anything it takes to achive the same look. Same goes for the rear.

Yeah if you arent converting it to rear, or mid-engine, the scoops are pointless. The rear bumper makes it looks gigantic, and as said will create a nice parachute effect, even if it is vented. If you want a nice side scoop move it down so it is a cooling duct for the brakes, then it will look good, and serve a purpose. But IMO the huge side scoop looks horrible, if you are going to do it, do it right, dont make it rice....
