Yes, fiberglass and bondo. Take a look at the "blog" on their website. There are numerious pictures of cars being built that clearly show the bodywork.
For example.

Still, the end result is incredible.

nope, and highly doubt the possibility of that any time soon; the owner's very **** on certain things and procedures.

Nakai-san is what we call a traditional Japanese tuner; according to a friend whom recently just visited NWB in person, Nakai-san doesn't like to deal with random folks that just walks in and wana get works done by him (if I didn't mention this earlier, then I'll have to address it here: NWB widebody isn't pre-made and Nakai-san will only sell it when he can work on it himself). There are certain procedure dealing with such an OG like this, when $-can't-buy-everything comes to play.

Not a problem, it wasn't really much info and I'm really sorry for that. I'm actually paying them a visit myself in January 09' during my anual TAS trip to Japan, along with a friend who have recently returned from there and knows Nakai-san personally. Will definately post some pictures to keep everyone posted here.
