Not the best pics.

I love the color, what's it called?

The diffuser looks cf, so I would get a cf lip to match the diffuser, but if the diffuser is black, I would leave it as is since it wold match. With regards to rims, I would keep them as is. Just a thought...but it's up to you, if you paint it it would also look nice and would match the side skirts but as someone mentioned, if you scrape it, there goes your time and money, on the other hand that would also be the case with cf lip, if you leave it the way it is, scraping it should not be as much of a problem because it shouldn't be too visible and the lip should be made out of urethane, I believe, so it should be somewhat flexible so minor scraping should not cause too much damage. Than again if you take a look at most of the aftermarket front bumpers sit about as low to the ground as the lip, the bumpers are painted and if you scrape it you just get it repainted, that would also be the case if you choose to paint it.

Thanks for the input guys. It looks like i will keep the lip like it is now. As for the rims im still not too sure if i should paint them gold. If anyone could help out and give me an idea how they would look gold that would be great.

As for the color it is a candy apple red from house of kolors.

RTS3GEN: If I am not mistaken, I saw your car in Modified a while back. I still have that one. Can't remember exactly what power it said you were putting out, but I remember it seemed kinda low. Like you detuned it for the feature or something.

He dyno at 359rwhp. IMO, that's not low but then again he wasn't attempting to build a dyno queen. That car is build for the road course.

My bad, I was thinking of an RXWagon that dynoed at 300whp in Import Tuner. I got the 2 confused. RTS3GEN was in Modified though, right?

I think his car did make a magazine appearance. You can PM him to find out for sure. However, even a 300rwhp FD is no slouch.

Thought i'd stick some pics of my car up! All the way from sunny England!
Recently had a few additions and was dynoed at 395BHP.
Owned it just over a year now and it is easily the best thing i've ever owned!!







What do you think?
