I don't like the idea of fiberglass onto metal, even if it is done right with grinding, 2 part epoxy....
      I'd probably be interested in a hatch if he could delete the license plate area!

      • He probably could but it would have to be a unanimous decision. Some poeple need to have it for either a TF or because they just don't want to mess with relocating it. I could see what he could do though.

            What about a front FHS Bumper and finish up the whole bodykit... since FMS isnt producing anymore. But definately the spoiler! :p

            • the front lip like on Eurotiva's and the Pride spoiler (Damkid's) or the Shout spoiler (25Horseplay's) Those would be the imediate wants from me - I think it would be awesome for him to offer a hatch with the tailfinisher already built in or a hatch with the licence plate molded in like LittleHoe's. I deafinately think he would make profit from reproducing the FMS kits (both J-Spec and Euro) not sure if theres copyright issues on these?

                  ok, what's an "FHS" bumper, and who said FMS isn't making body kits anymore? I just got mine from FMS last week.

                      It is a rumor that keeps getting repeated, especially by newbies and posers. It stems from the time FMS did not have some one to reproduce the parts and there was a back order.

                        I think having a comparable competator for the kits might bring the prices down slightly and perhaps decrease the turn-over time

                          well, to help dispell these rumors, i would suggest that FMS update their website and try to have a more active role in our community. I know I would be more apt to purchace from them if this were the case.
