Oh, you never mentioned that you were on a budget. You are better off getting a fly1 copy. Quality jdm parts are not cheap. But you get what you pay for.

multiple members here have the fujimura hood and everyone agrees it has excellent quality and is actually very functional, due to vent design

think of it as a bargain compared to an Overtake dry carbon hood for a GTR or custom fabbed equivalent for a 370Z

or a bargain compared to an ebay hood which may or may not fit

The best thing about the Fuji pieces is they always look good regardless what you pair em with. The only thing I can think might make it look bad is a widebody fender that doesn't line up.

Is BP taking a cut of all North American sales, or did their plan to be exclusive not work out?

Most likely, it makes no sense for 5+ companies to produce the exact same set of fenders (sorry, forgot the "newly added" vent to set them apart )

...or these are the most unoriginal companies I've ever seen in my life.

...actually both

could be...but even then, depending on the quality standards and how much each company is willing to pay the factory, you can have 10 different quality fenders come out of the same factory

the fenders quality are awesome. the weave is awesome and they feel solid and durable. so i guess ill wait and see what this hood looks like

he said delivery is mid january, same time my amuse rep kit will be ready with shine auto. super excited to see it all together

I'm to the point where I'd rather wait the 3-7 months for authentic Varis parts and not worry about the fitment.
