yep... it was bound to happen once the parts became available in the aftermarket..... oh well.... it is still not the real deal...and it never will be.

But, I have to say it is somewhat flattering. Additionally, there are many folks out there who aren't as lucky as us and cannot afford a real one, so they must resort to building their own. Fundamentally, I have no problem with this. I remember a time in my life when having a car like the R and the M5 were distant dreams...and I would have done anything to make my car look the part.

any idea on whether they plan to build it? it looks pretty good except the front splitter looks a little too cluttered and complcated.

The spoiler, hood and front end add $2900 or so to the car I should have one here in April sometime. Here is the hood.
