Let's play "Name That Kit!"

Hey all, I know you've seen this car before because it's very, very cool. I have a little problem... My mind keeps switching between modifying a '95 S14 and an early '90s Fastback. I was looking @ this car again and DAMN! I want to do a Type-X rear conversion sooooo bad, just looks so nice! Can anyone tell me what rear, sideskirts and wing this car has? Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

Did some looking around - I think the wing comes stock on Type-X's. Am I right? If so where could I get my hands on one?

it could also be a GGrow kit, they are pretty similar. the side skirts i think may be stock as well.

SS and wing are stock
not sure about the rear -- it could be a stock JDM OEM rear valence.
the whole car is technically stock (not sure about the rear); the guys off freshalloy said the front had holes cut into the stock kit etc. etc.
the reason why i think the rear is a stock rear valence is that the front has the JDM OEM front lip..

That is definately the G-Grow kit. Looks like the type 1 kit.

I 2nd that. It's definately GP Sport, G-Grow has less vents and looks like a lower version of the stock TypeX body

Look at the turn signals and the lip on the GP Sports kit



(Here's the link)

Now look at the turn signals/fog lamps and the lip on the G-Grow

whats the kit on that white 180 parked next to the red GP sport one? They look to be similar, except the side skirts aren't as agressive and beefy as the GP kit

No they don't. Look at the web site. I can't believe you guys don't see how obvious it is that, that is the g-grow kit.
