Shame about the spoiler and the presumably fake NACA side ducts... and how the rear wheel sits in the arch. That said the rest looks nice (tho they should have finished the rear without the horizontal bar going across at the bottom.. like the front... and it needs spats).
Other than the kit I'm not sure what else to comment on since the translator is hardly a babel fish in my ear.

I think, he can choose other kinds of spoiler. I guess it doesn't match on his car although the whole setup was great. This will work perhaps.

nope, it was pretty rare to start with so replicas tend to be either a mixture of gen 1 and 2 or a poor replica with differences.

You also have stuff like the fuel filler which most replicas along with all the other small things such as exhaust, specific factory built wheels and coilovers tended to be part of the package.
