Never mind about the oem mud guard suggestion, doesn't seem possible to run them with the rear wide body fenders. Still like the street style diffuser though

Lol, the obnoxious stickers have a story behind them. Each of the stickers except for two, were all given to me by their respective owners. Having been raised on VHS copies of Option Video, and visiting Japan a few times, the inspiration behind my particular build is 90's golden era Japanese street style, so the stickers will always remain.

I had the OEM mudguards with this diffuser before, but as someone else had already mentioned, they don't work with the rear fenders.

Lol, I've tried fixing the hood gap since I've owned this car, I'm sure if I take it to a body shop, they could move something around to close that gap, but for now, it doesn't bother me.

Thanks for the kind words, I always think twice about posting pics here on this forum because I understand the mentality behind most third gen owners. It's nice to know that some of you guys like the car, and when I get the last body pieces in, I may make a build thread. I've only owned the car for 9 months, and have put a lot of time and effort into building the car the way I see it in my mind.

yea the hood gap isn't a huge problem, i've gotten over it for mine lol. im usually all for NOT doing feed, but it just works so well with with what you have done. I feel ya though, most people dont care for that type of style, o well it's you car and if u look back at it when u park it and you go into an establishment.. you're doing something right!

HHHMMMM.... Guess I'm confused Phil......

On another post in this thread you stated that the Satin painted FD is your OLD car that you sold to a friend and he painted it Satin black...... Now your stating it's the "same" FD from 5-6 yrs ago.....

Gotta keep track of your stories....They will catch up with you
