Bodykits & Fitting

as i am beginning to lose my passion on the RR conversion (why is it so expensive:unlove::mad:)

i am turning my head around for a FD2R conversion, and adding some extras on the fd2r kit

1. I am looking at the J's Racing lip kit (source: after12 - Malaysia)
http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...R/548d6745.jpg

2. Mugen FD2R rear bumper/under wing


But the thing is, i dont know if theres any shop(overseas) that sells the replica under wing that fits on a fd2r conversion, anybody knows of such thing exist?

If it doesnt, does a genuine FD2R rear bumper fits the FD1?
Ohhh shibba~ talkin abt genuine stuffs~~~


oh by the way....is that rear bumper....a whole thing itself...or just the under wing =.="
http://www.zerotohundred.com/news/ma...c_type_r_1.jpg

after12 shud selling the lips to fit the replica FD2R.. and the rear part is just the piece of white thing.. not replacement bumper.. =)

anyway i thought u have ordered ur Mugen RR? so u gonna sell it?

Nah Wayne thats SUS2K thats got the RR kit

HAHAHA i cant afford it, its bloody 5K...dont have a job, dont have the cash

thanks wayne, youve helped a lot

i guess the white wing will fit, because FD1 and FD2R have the same ass, only the head is wider than normal FDs

haha.. sorry.. misunderstood.. very sorry..

why not just get the replica INGS+1 bodykit? hehe.. whats ur car color? black?

i got a white 09 vti, i had a look at INGS+1 and the Bomex replica at after12, but i wanna do a bit of a mix & match...

havent got the cash to buy now...
so everything is not finalised until that day comes

feel's kit!

i do like the wide fd2r kit as well. wide body = epic

the ings kit looks good on the white ings racing fd, but i ran into this pic with a silver fd and a replica ings kit + mugen wing.
for some reason it doesnt look as good.

feels is so nice.
i'd buy that one if i didnt have a gold civic LOL.

feels front is nice.. ING back is nice.. =)

oic...now ive learnt something new~~~

thanks wayne!!!

lol.. no worries.. xD

anyone can tell me where i can go look at if i wanna see what after12 has in stock for the kits?

^to jpwwong

you can check out their websites, just google 'aftertwelve' and send them an email, you should get a reply within days, but...however, you should really annoy them until you get a reply about the cost for shipping/freight liquid and i tried slapping them and shit but they wouldnt tell us much abt the costs, or you can ask one of the traders here in ozhonda to import it for you =]

just call them.. KL ppl like ppl to call them but not email.. the way they do business.. =)

wayne, any update with the FEELS replica >,<"

not yet.. =(

aww...thats fine =]

update:

ive done some research *cough* and this is what I have come up with

if anyone here is up for some genuine items....here we go


full front bumper replacement
http://www.hondatwincam.co.jp/fd2/s-...bumper-001.jpg
grille
http://www.hondatwincam.co.jp/fd2/s-...grille-001.jpg
and the side fenders (key item to the FEEL'S body kit)
http://www.hondatwincam.co.jp/fd2/s-...fender-001.jpg

are about $3000....
http://lh6.ggpht.com/_NRSDCBt4i-U/SU...;20twincam.jpg

but the only problem is...our fenders
I do not know if it is full fender replacement, or add-on

here is what the FEEL'S website describe its fenders

フロントワイドフェンダー
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
片側20mmずつのワイド化によるトレッドの拡幅で、コーナリング性能の向上を果たします。
※ＦＲＰ黒仕上げ。インナーフェンダー装着不可。要・車幅変更登録

translate (from worldlingo)

Front wide fender
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With enlargement of the tread at a time one side 20mm with wide conversion, improvement of cornering efficiency is carried out.
* FRP black finish.Inner fender installing failure.Main point car width modification register

fender does not look like an add-on.. should be a full replacement

thats what i think too....$3000
not bad....

so by having wider fender, we can improve our connering?

LOL....i dont think so...but that means wider fenders...mean wider wheels??? more stable??

correct.

wider fenders means there is more space in the wheel enclosure, which allows the wider wheels and tires. plus lower offsets which gives you a wider stance on the front which makes for good handling becuase the turning angles are wider.. i dunno how to describe it,. it makes sense to me, in my head =]

but damn ho wmuch just for the fenders? they are hot.! i'd be keen for them.. although with widebody fenders, do they come with the guards that stretch the extra wide body part? or do you just run no plastic guards under the fender?

im pretty interested in these fenders keep posting shit about them (Y)

to ekdez

i thought of that because i see those track cars are really wide, often got fenders which are like 5 to 6 inches wider than the stock. a wider base DO mean it will be much more stable when cornering (i think some physics principle apply here)


this is genuine FEEL'S product...the fenders are made to fit the FEEL's front bumper, and i think they will fit other genuine bodykits for the FD2R, such as INGS, FD2R, Spoon, J's Racing etc
and since its genuine, there should be extra stuff for the guards


from memory they are roughly 1.1K

gay..

LOL....start saving up
like me =]

going overseas instead LOL.

i already got a genuine mugen kit.. i just wanted some wide fenders to add to the kit but if you need a full bumper replacement and possibly headlights too... then i cbf.. ill just wait till they make an australianised version of it.

you've pointed out what i was thinkin abt as well

but their product list doesnt include FEEL'S headlight


and you mean austranlianised as in replicas??

dont worry, Wayne is working his way on it

yup reps.. or if they make a genuine one for aus cars.

hey how much is the fd2r kit roughly? and where can you purchase them from

you can get it from jdmyard and that touge tune trader..

if you are hunting for replicas, ask touge

if you want genuine fd2R you can ask any traders here to source one for you =]

jdm yard posted..

"FD2R replica bodykit

-front bar
-side skirt
-rear car
-CF rear wing

$2200 gst incl "

twas a while ago.. price may have changed.. but i would suspect its a decent fit.. they dont stock anything but the best..

When I went and purchased Mugen bodykit (Rep) from OTR in clayton VIC, The owner told me that he has two FD2R replica bodykit. I saw the kit myself and he told me that the price is $999 which is way way cheaper that what you guys have been posting. I might be wrong, but there's no harm trying to call them. Also, I'm not sure what is included in that kit.. Most probably, the price doesn't include the wing.

FYI.. FD2R have wider front fenders because they have brembo brakes.. and so the wheels will comes out and offset will higher by 5mm.. im still waiting my fren reply me regarding the feels replica.. xD

feel's front bumper = porn

someone should get the mugen advanced RR kit
its available in malaysia :)

09 RR? or 08 Experimental Spec like the my avatar? xD

i think its this one

http://www.zerotohundred.com/wp-cont...4624836487.jpg

yup, thats the new Mugen RR

think its called the Advanced Spec....


btw..i rkn theres a small similarity to the new Mazda3

http://heritagemazda.files.wordpress...ive_la_opt.jpg

just a very small...prob'ly just co-incidence, but the body kit of the new RR looks hot on black! *wink wink* every1 who has a black FD

yup thats the one, advanced RR :P
wayne get it !

errr.....just as i am a bit over-excited and has already begun saving up money and looking for work at this current shit economy in Australia


i think one of the beloved members here (cant remember who, sorry) have pointed out a very big problem for this FEEL'S kit...

the headlight LOOKS DIFFERENT.....

http://carview-img02.bmcdn.jp/minkar...1544087/p5.jpg

so so....does it mean....
1. the bumper just covers part of the headlight

or,
2. i need to spend more money to buy a new set of headlights? but FEEL'S website did not list a special set of headlight made for that kit

like someone mentioned, the fd2 front guards are slightly wider than the fd1, but with a replica fd1 feels kit, they'll probly accomodate for that difference as well as for the headlight issue. There are probably fd1 replica feels kits for owners that wont require u to reconfigure ur headlights.
goodluck in getting the kit! look forward to some pics.

=] thx for your help, it would be great if i see the feel's replica
but if its expensive like the RR kit, might as well get the real deal

RR kit is just like 1.x k from malaysia..
def less than 2k

does that include the fender flares, rear wing, functioning light in the middle of the diffuser and foglights?

ya all included, need to call friend overseas if confirm but should be 2k ish

lolz.. the headlight is same.. just tinted.. xD

really? i think its less "curve-y" in the FEEL'S one, its more like a straight line, compared to the stock FD2R and our FDs :o

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ct2Z4hSdla...0/Feel+FD2.jpg

from that pic it doesnt even look like its tinted. it just looks like the headlights have been replaced by carbon fibre lol. but to my eyes, the bottom of the headlights definitely look less curvy and more straighter than standard fd headlights.

wayne....any updates =[
