# KeeJay : IMO it looks good (however, I'm more rice guy). Are you going to make rest of kit?
Yes, I'm going to make the rest of all of the Juiced 2 kits. This means I still have to finish the rest of the Bomex and Varis kits, with side skirts and rear bumpers. (Plus, like, 10 different rear wings.)

# KeeJay : PS: Duce kit. BN Sports kits are everywhere.
# Hinata23 : Why not both? I agree that BN kits are everywhere, but I guess that's because they're good-looking and I actually like them. But it's not up to me to decide on that. I'm only sitting here and waiting, not working after all :D
Surprisingly, even though Duce is apparently a smaller shop, I've seen pictures of as many of their kits (or replicas/knockoffs mistakenly known as "Vertex"?) on R33 GTS's as BN Sports kits. But I know what you mean about Duce being rarer, in general.

# Supremen96 : Nah, don't make both wide kits. Keep it realistic.
R33 GTS bumpers can be used on GTR's if you widen them, which isn't apparently too hard but does take some work by a body-shop. It's apparently just as hard, maybe a little bit easier, to go the other way. Also, knock-off companies* like Knight Racer and Extreme Dimensions / VIS Racing / Seibon make GTR versions of GTS bumpers, and vice versa.

Also, this.

That said, I like things to be realistic and separated a little bit, so I won't do GTS versions of every GTR kit and vice versa. I will probably just do one or two of the very popular GTS kits in a wide version (although maybe not, if literally everyone ends up using it).

* Side note: don't buy knock-offs - the fit and finish will suck, and it's better to support the original companies anyway. Especially Extreme/VIS/Seibon; Knight Racer might not be as bad. :P
