December 31st, 1969 The new Nissan GT-R has been attracting attention from many tuning houses, especially the major Japanese ones such as Top Secret and Mines who have worked with the GT-R previously. Arios, a lesser known company in the competitive aftermarket tuner scene the world but renowned in its home country of Japan, has also set about giving the new GT-R a makeover. Arios has given the GT-R a new look through a custom carbon-fiber front lip spoiler, a custom nose cover, a carbon-fiber engine cover and some low-drag duct covers also made out of lightweight composite. There are plans in the future for a custom rear-spoiler as well and for now the Arios guys haven't touched the mechanical components of the GT-R. The Arios GT-R, with all of its kit on, looks distinctly more menacing than the stock offering and gives the GT-R a look worthy of its stunning performance. Some other aero kits for the GT-R can be found by way of Zele and Garage Defend, who each have their own take on how the GT-R should look. The full Arios kit will set you back about ¥525,750 ($4998).Arios GT-R carbon-fiber aero kit

    well the price is low but the maintenance cost is way way to high. rather get a vette

    no no no no no....leave the car alone...the rounded package does away with one of the part so fht GTR that sets it apart from also rans like the 'vette and thats the edgy styling.

    If you asked any true sports car enthusiest which between a 'Vette and a GTR would they want, 99% of them woudl plump for a GTR

    So much for Nissan's initial press release of making the new GT-R harder to modify. However, not a big fan of this body kit

    i like the body kit, pretty aggressive, more of a ricer look to it, which im used to seeing where I live but makes it look more menacing too.
