im just afraid it looks a little like a cat fish with its mouth open. the shape of the front grill/vent placement... look like gills/mouth....

idk, overall i think it looks good, just needs some adjustments

I just don't know if this is going to look good in production or not. The PS works don't give me much confidence and the Amuse to me just is not a good kit to start out with, and using it to bring in GT-R styling... I just don't know.

Im sure your guys fabrication skills are top notch, especially to be pulling this off. I also mean no disrespect because I know exactly how much work goes into creating such things.

I know its already been mentioned quite a few times...it looks just like amuse but with more holes it the kit.....I would just assume you would have tried to come up with a totally original look.

Now I can't unsee it.

I like it!!! Couple of questions: pricing for complete kit in CF and will it fit a Roadster? (I assume the answer is yes?) Also, can you direct me to CF hoods that you offer?

Thanks,
Tim

Hey Tim, we haven't settled on pricing and we are about to get underway with our prototype. We will make both frp and cf versions... This will be roadster compatible and at the moment we have not taken on making hoods.

It looks really weird on a roadster IMO. Shadowx2x posted a thread on here somewhere.

This concept reminds me soo much of the new Jaguar XK-RS:

The original Amuse rear bumper looked wierd...

Ours will be "taller" which will fit the body much better... also, that roadster was a 4x4 no kit would look good on it looking like a 4x4 lol

Cmike2780 · 06-29-2011, 10:23 PM

I thought it looked like they pulled elements from the GRan Turismo when I first saw the Amuse kit.

We borrowed a few pictures to make the concept illustrations... if the owners or publications have a problem with us using the pictures please let me know via PM and we will work out something out.

so without further anticipation:

Front Bumper:
Yes yes i love it.-We have increased the front bumper side intakes (making them functional)
Not for me, don't like!-We have added GTR inspired Center section

Side Skirts:
Unsure, could be nice.-New Organic look (a little something different)

Rear Bumper:
Yes-Functional diffuser
Yes-Lower ground clearance for the bumper
Yes yes-Wider Side vents (similar to veilside version 3)
-Option for custom exhaust through Bumper vents
-Would like it if it was rounder like the OEM bumper, getting rid of that crease that runs across it. So it looks like this ) and not >

Just me, but i'd love to see my fanged amuse get made.
