| Negative panda? Sounds cool. Black and white seems played out, throw some grey instead of white. I'm having mine painted this spring Honda millennium silver metallic. | |

| I've seen 'reverse Panda' Levin models with black and grey, looked pretty good. Go for it, you can always re-paint it! | |

| unfortunatly I hit a guard rail on the 8th a week after getting the car, and the front is kinda fucked. so i gotta do something with that, so i will be doing the body kit, but if i need to i can do fabricating myself. so the front bumper fenders, side skirts and back bumper have to go on. i cant find anything out here where i am at | |

Check this out boss: http://www.pandagarage.com/products/ae86.htmlStock parts & bumpers and such. 86's in my mind should not have kits. Maybe a little lip at the most. But to each their own, sorry to hear about the crash. That sucks. | |
