kitcarguy my education is covered Smiley
I heard terrible reviews on that guys kit, I saw pics he doesn't show on his site arrgg the rear bumper is at least a 1/2 inch off it's sickening...
Extreme 355 looks really good...to bad I can't afford that either I might be able to afford a head light or side marker  Roll Eyes do they have a dealer in the us? I'd love to build one...but what about the RHD and the mr2.... Huh do people even make LHD mr2 Ferrari dashes? I've never seen one....

The Extreme 355's are great. But I have been told (I am only 15, turning 16 soon) that in the U.S. the AD 355 kit is better and can be fit on a Fiero. I say better in a sense of cost, time, etc.. Both kits are very exact replicas.

The NSX F50 should have been put into production. That was the best replica F50 I have seen, and it's a shame it wasn't.

i used to own the F50 kit that just sold on ebay. the glass was thick and well built. it was the last one made before ferrari got in touch with TG. i didnt have time to complete it so i sold it to Rick. it was easy to install. the only guess work was what hinges to use on the rear hatch. i cant speak for all the splashed f50 kits but the TG was simple to install. the reason i didnt have time was because of two jobs and a sick grandmother.oh ya, it was the short version.

I wouldn't call it a rip-off. For the price someone got a great deal. If you knew what it cost in time and money to actually build one of these things you'd be singing a different tune.

I know it is a poor rez picture but it is the clear rear decklid cover for his F50. It is pretty uniquely shaped. Maybe DJ can get a better quality picture for us.

Here is a great looking F50 kit on eBay. You can see this guys engine cover in one of his pictures. Looks like he used tinted black or painted his. Anyways, it is a very good looking kit.
