My Widebody Fit
The kit by Seibon is designed for the NA front bumpers (it still replaces the rear bumper with a smaller bumper).
The one that N1 concepts has is designed for the JDM front end.
Both are basically knock offs of the Mugen Dynamite kit, but since Mugen never officially sold the kit (at least not to my knowledge) can you really call it a knock off?

Thanks for the clarification, by the way. It makes sense after looking at both vehicles now.

The kit is not from Seibon, since they deal in CF only. The front end looks nice, but the rear is kind of mickey mouse.
The Seibon hood though looks different from what I've seen. The one I've seen has a vent centered towards the top of the hood to catch air. Is this the actual design or am I mistaken?
I've seen this car on here already. Speed N Stylez has it listed on their thread for the sale of this kit.

The kit seems to be made by N1 like was posted earlier. If you really want to know contact Speed N Stylez since they carry (or carried) the kit. Their thread said they have (had) 5 kits in stock ready to ship.

My comments were made according to the info I have as a consumer. I checked their site repeatedly and never (ever) seen anything but CF listed.
I have however seen this kit, in an article, credited to N1. In fact, if you look closely on the yellow fit in the pics you can see www.N1motoring.com written on the front door. The car is on their homepage also.
I guess they are all copycat kits.
By the way...you got pics of the non-widebody kit, and does it come with the tailgate garnish. If it does, these kits are gonna start flying.

For "tailgate garnish" I think he means (on the original car of this post) the white piece that mounts to the bottom of the hatch below the license plate and above the bumper, which gives the car a smoother more rounded look.
