That is interesting...
 
Wow, not quite sure what to that of that um, NSX? lol.....I am amazed at how different it looks on the back, so different I wouldn't be able to tell it was ever an NSX from that view. Interesting though...looks like alot of work went into it.
 
Looks like the BSM bodykit from Japan. I wonder if it is still being sold. Btw reminds me of Zonda.

I luv the wheels on that red NSX.

Any more pix of that one?
 
man, i can't believe the NERVE of some people! i went to the VIP show and unlocked my car for about an hour so that the judges might be able to access the inside of the car and look around.

i walk away from my cars (elise and nsx) for about 20 minutes to walk the floor, and come back, and realize people are all sitting inside either car. one was inside the nsx messing around with the steering wheel acting as if he was driving the car. another young lady got inside my elise and was fiddling with my touchscreen headunit. and i asked the people kindly to get out of the nsx and the guy looked at me and said "HOLD on. i'm taking a picture and you're in the way", and my GF asked the girl to get out of the elise, and she said okay... but as soon as my GF started to walk away, the lady said "stupid b$(*Ch" and man... i just can't believe people would be so rude to the actual OWNER of the car as if it was there.

the rest of the VIP show i stood right behind my car, and its UNBELIEVABLE the things people will do. countless people were yanking on the carbon rear duct hatch, or touching it just to see if it was functional. others would scratch at the hood at the painted/carbon partion to see if it was painted in or just a sticker. i even had a guy walk around the car tapping on each panel to see if it was metal or fiberglass i assume. and ONE guy even was pushing up and down on my carbon wing on the elise to see how much 'give' or flex there was...

god, if i could just taze or hit each person who did that, i woulda been a lot happier... hahaha...

but other than the idiot spectators, i met a lot of really cool enthusiasts, who could appreciate the cars, and we chatted for a while...

i think there were only a handful of NSXs there... :tongue:

Glad to finally see pictures of your NSX Les. Did M1 fabricate everything on your NSX?


Hey there Son.

DTM autohaus (M1) did do the work. It was quite an ordeal too. I was able to have Endless work with BSM Japan to fabricate a custom kit for us on this project. There were over 13 pieces and even then some parts had to be modified quite a bit. I guess that even the original kit in Japan was not perfect. Therefore it wasn't ever produced for sales. BSM is mainly a Wagon body kit maker in Japan. Tricked out Wagons are really popular there.

After having the car at M1 since last October, the car was finally ready to debut this past weekend. George Nogal from DTM put a lot of hard work on it. I stand by DTM and M1's work. I don't think I would have tried this if I wasn't sure that they could pull it off.

The car still needs some work, but we have a great start on it I think.


Thanks for the great comments.

Hope to see everyone at an NSX event soon.


Les

That just gets under my skin!:mad: Some people have no respect for other people's property. There's just no excuse for that other than plain ingnorance and stupidity.

Or better yet rig and alarm system that would deliver 100,000 volts when touched...:biggrin: :biggrin:
 
How do you open the trunk?!
 
The wheels on the red nsx looks like Work Termist wheels.

Are those even possible to get anymore? If so, where in the heck would you get them?

Nice pics, thanks for sharing.
