Looks so goofy without FTPs. If that was my car, I'd put the FTPs back in the bumper.

:like: Wingless S5, with exhaust out the passenger (custom?)... Wonder what a hatch spoiler would look like.

Is the bumper off some? can it be fixed?

(Looking back at your wheel specs, you says a +38 spacer in the rear?? What does the spacer look like? whats that wheels normal offset? You say this is your track setup, I have an honest question: I heard it is unsafe to race on spacers, is this true?)

Yeah I like the wingless look. I am getting an Origin Hatch Spoiler but they take forever to get here. Don't worry, it's in the plans.

Exhaust is an older style JDM Apex'i N1. Got it from Japan and it mounted the exhaust on the pass. side, I like it!

The RE-Amemiya bumper mounts around the fender instead of being just the front piece, that's why it looks mis-aligned. I'm getting it repaired/re-glassed, the damage was from the previous owner.

Wheel specs:

Fronts:16x7.5 +35 (25mm spacer)
Rears:16x8.5 +35 (38mm spacer)

I am going to be getting lips for the fronts and making the rears my fronts, and the rears will be 16x10 (front fenders and rear overs).

I have personally auto-x and tracked cars on bolt on 15mm spacers and I have never had an issue. This is not my track setup just yet as I don't have the tires I am going to run. Still deciding on what 17's to daily!

Haha, it's taken a while but I'm finally falling in love with it! I hate the damage that the previous owner committed to it. I will get it repaired and properly mounted since my sides and rear diffuser are in! Thanks man! Any more pics of your ride?
