Fujimi Chevy Astro LS AWD
This is just some build pics. I have a couple of neat "add ons" when i get pics of the interior. Color is dark green (toyota) by plasticote, and silver is dupli color. This thing has a HUGE turing radius too. And if anyone else has this kit, its really easy to lower. Just flip the front spindles around (has a taller peg at the top then at bottom) And the rear end has block you remove (Fujimi released multiple versions of this kit, a slammed version one of them; so it gives all the slammer parts) To achieve the stock look, fujimi wedged a piece of plastic between the axle housing and leaf spring, just remove that and vo-wal-al. If you want to give it the ass-drag look, put the axle housing on the inside of the leaf springs, and not on the outside as it would sugguest.
  You thought it was gonna have the stock exhaust huh?

Re: Fujimi Chevy Astro LS AWD
I think fujimi has really redeemed their self on this kit. This kit is really top notch. There are no flash or mold lines whats so ever.
   Soda anyone?!

Looks great so far! I've been wanting one of these kits for a while now. It's cool to see someone else building it up so I have an idea of what it'll be like when I finally get one!

Re: Fujimi Chevy Astro LS AWD
I didn't even know that Fujimi made this kit. Looks really good. Nice work. Keep us posted on how the build goes.

Re: Fujimi Chevy Astro LS AWD
Yeah, I've seen quite a few lifted Camaros and other cars and vans too.
I guess lifting a van isn't that new, since Fed-Ex has a lift on all of their vans here. I dont' think a lift on this van would look to good though.
