i thought it would look good, and i had some free time to play around in paint.

seriously, if you have enough money to rip apart a NSX then just sell it and use the money you had to mod it and get a REAL FERRARI! Too much time and energy wasted and for what? a v-tec Ferrari...blah!

actually i do see one adavantage, they could have used the pieces to make REALY GOOD molds, and sell kits to NSX guys who want ppl to think they have a $300,000 instead of a $90,000...they just want an extra "0" thats all...

actually a brand new NSX won't cost ya more then 60k.. and doing all the body work will be another 10-12K eazy. so your looking at a 75k car. not including engine work. (if engine work is included) then the motor will cost ya. another 6k. for a local place to build it for ya. and even then it still won't have the power of a F50.

i kinda considered for it to be worked into the body... not as a hatch, but i do like that j-spec kit's look.
i'm just not completely sure about the design on the flat back pannel.
bah... this is just a project for when i'm 40 and have nothing better to do with my time... lol
hell i'm still in school for my ME degree. 2 years to go, thank god!
anymore info on that flat hatch? anyone know?
also anyone know where i can "mix" car paint colors online?

Ya Know.... I LIKE that... and I don't like too many of the aftermarket mods for a TII....
And, thinking about it.... there are a lot of merits to that... Minimal Glass... Glass weights a hell of a lot more than metal per surface area (body panel's that is), and they make these out of fiberglass..... Anybody importing those to the states???

heres another shitty camera pic out of one of my Hyper Rev Mags. I believe that this praticular one is made by Garrage 7. Im sure JT imports could get you some thing like this but I bet it wuold be spendy, proably cheepre to pick up REs plexiglass rear hatch, I think its only like $500.
