I had the same style kit on my car for like 4 years. I was just kinda over it. Is that ok?

It's mostly broken already, so who knows how long it's gonna stay.

imo I'd take that over super played out bn anyday. If I had a choice for front bumper though I'd go with the car service hiro bumper, but its semi rare and super expensive unless I knew someone in the import industry that could through it in a container from J-land. right now its worth more then my car.lol. I also dig the bomex rear and side skirts. its different but their front doesn't have big enough openings for me.

I dig the M Sport and Sexy Style kit as well as the BN.

My front bumper is too narrow which sucks, and the sides are way too cheater low. I didn't know they were gonna be that low. One event and I've worn through both ends on both side skirts from dragging the ground.

thank god JLowe jumped on the BN Bandwaggon.
GP is horrible. + like you said 4yrs on the same color/aero looks old as shit after awhile.

out of the box BN sucks. the side skirts always suck. the front bumpers never fit the fender width correctly, the rears fit good but don't flare enough.

modify EVERYTHING like the white car, and yes it looks good.

idk why - but DK's FC makes me hate BN. that thing is always hammered.

Yeah whenever the time comes to fix the front bumper I might modify it to fit the fenders, but Idk I break stuff all the time.

Thank You for keeping the same chassis. I've hit the wall and we all know shit happens but this whole attitude where crashing into walls is cool is fucking ridiculous. I'm not sure if its just a Midwest thing but smashing the rear 2ft of your car isn't hard. Scuffing a clip or tire marks on doors should get applause but because it takes skill. I not directing this to anyone in here its just a trend I've been noticing. Getting a different chassis every season because u wreaked at every event is lame. And fuck your its a missile excuse take some pride in your shit. I like beat drift cars but there is a huge difference between a good styled car that's seen 8 seasons of abuse VS some piece of shit on purpose abortion. My rants over fuck me.

just saying if you cant afford to keep aero on your car don't run it. it doesnt make sense. its not mine and i dont really care, but 8yrs into this why are you still smashing every event? it just looks beat. maybe it's just because we have different work ethics or different views or different amounts of pride in our cars.

I'm still on the same chassis too. i never swapped.
there's nothing wrong with building a new car anyways. if you can fund it - why not. each car will obviously be better and better each time, and you learn more in doing it this way.

i'm no king or anything but im sorry you don't take note of your cars appearance and keep up on it. i'm sorry to use you as a reference but it has been like 4 yrs and your car still looks just as bad. there's no way to say that and not sound like a dick. im really not trying to be - but there's no one else to reference.

for example; Justin started off same way as all of us right now (if anything it was harder then) his car was always on point, because it is just part of the expense of drifting. no one wants to endorse the one car that looks like someone is "trying to make it look cool" yet not keeping up on it. it's like saying "hey im trying to make top 16 but i wont follow through once i get there"

i wish you the best and i dont want to be "that guy" but fuck there it is. you need to help yourself and get fresh aero and take 20mins to put some thought into mounting it, and you would have one hell of a nice car.

Summit HEART 09-16-11 09:32 PM

^ Lol, I like dks car, you guys should see the monster trucks in the Midwest

I fc3SLIDE 09-17-11 01:35 AM

mounting is the way.

seriously FC's aren't anything special. especially mine, or JTPs. just BN + 45 mins of mounting aero correctly and they look rad as shit.

my car last year looked super gay. my car STILL looks super gay.

@chance whats the status on the 45mm front fenders? RHDJapan set me up with the swoop tactics i think...

RotaSpinna69 09-17-11 05:20 PM

@I fc3SLIDE what's the status on that ladies rear end? :)

I fc3SLIDE 09-18-11 12:19 AM

FC_fan 09-18-11 07:33 AM

Damn I feel alot of hate from Buckey..

You put countless hours rebuilding your car.....How does your car look gay??????? It looks badass.. I dont understand. Maybe your too picky? Or too high of expectations???? Maybe youl never be satisfied... Cant expect a drift car to stay straight.. Even the Team Falken FD cars are bent to shit underneath that fiberglass.

uhhhhmmmhmmm..... 45 min. to mount aero takes too long. if it was a customer car, then yeah I'l take my time, but my car has no mounting points, everything is smashed down, side to side, crumbled..

If my car was straight, and a show car maybe 45min..

Its off season now, so I have some stuff planned..
Will replace the skin .. Maybe mold fiberglass rear body, lexan windows.. Going with Zues fittings all over the skin. Fuel cell, surge tank, blah blah the works..
Im going to fab a "bolt on" tube front and rear end with quick change rear diff for next season.. So If I crash, Il have spare tube frames ready to swap at the track:) and depending on the track, I could change the gearing in minutes.. We'l see if it could be done on a fc rear subframe while FD , XDC legal... The fc rear diff takes tooo long to change the ring gear, we all know that... Goal is to make the car lighter, faster, reliable , competitive and more track worthy.

This winter off season will be fun!

as I was once told.... there is no "proper" in drifting.. Drifting itself is like jumping out of a airplane without a parachute smoking weed on crack shootin heroin at the same time.

But we can do our best anyways to make it proper..



Oh and you still havent returned my friends turbo. Hes still asking me about it.
