Good timing and angles. Sunset shots are always the best ones.

Nice work.

Great looking kit. Does it still have an auto tranny and has no engine or powertrain mods? All show and no go.

Maybe it's just me but I think it needs meatier tires, a bit more negative camber(nothing retarded) and maybe a tad lower in the rear. Other than that it looks great!

it needs some performance first before wider tires are justified

but in terms of looks, OR did a good job, and glad that they chose a red one and not white (so tired of seeing only white FRS')

OpenRoads car apprently might be for sale later

The island has a Asphalt RB with very much the same setup (wheels and coils)

Meh, I honestly like the look but would rather have just the fenders as I don't like the lip, skirt or rear. I would also mold the kit it looks so much better.

Didn't know what's under the hood so could only comment on the aesthetics. But yes, engine mods are needed on these cars.

As far as I know (I could be mistaken) the only performance mod is the Invidia cat-back. I can't remember where I saw the list of modifications that this car had but I remember the performance section being really small.

Yeah the car definitely could use some more performance to match its appearance. It's not to everyone's taste but if anything, we can all appreciate loong's photography. Amazing stuff Kevin!
