Well, finally got some current pics of my car. Still have a few things to complete and it's a little dirty, but it was 32 deg outside so I have an excuse...

Looking good. I guess thats what mine is going to look like in the next couple months

Looks like you got the fitment on it pretty good. Only place I can find fault is that it appears that the bumper is sitting too high on the insides of the headlight covers? Perhaps this is an illusion from the pics? Perhaps adjust the headlight covers up, or the bumper down a bit and it should look pretty perfect.

No, it does sit a little high near the lights. I still have to trim the aluminum brace under those edges to the contour of the hood and it should be a nice fit.

Yes, I still have to make one. I also have R-Magic oil cooler ducts and an Apexi 3 bar map sensor to install along with a couple boxes of other parts I've accumulated over the years...

SKDTME: Your car looked awsome with those wheels and 99 spec! Why sabotage it with the C-west kit? The C-west kit realy knows how to kill aerodynamics.

I have nothing against you so dont take it personal.

I don't "hate" the cwest kit. I just don't like how it's edgy/boxy; taking the curvy look of the FD out.

It may be just me, but I love the 99 spec front bumper because it makes it look like the car is smiling

I dont think the front C West kit will be going on my car now? hit a bit of a big bump and smashed it up a bit. Can fix it but OM bumper looks just as good so think i will stick with it.
As for location in NZ im from New Plymouth, Taranaki.
My car was sitting on the ground in that pic i was installing new diff mounts when i noticed how low it was at the front so i took a pic.
