I think it's one of the best kits out there along with C-Westin. It's just plain clean and agressive. Of course I am biased. I don't really like the tinted head light cover, but it serves its purpose. Sweet.

That's the same front end I want. That big *** mouth opening should work perfectly with the FMIC.
Do the integrated lights come with it? And, is the plastic over them smoked, or clear? I can never tell from the pictures. Some of them look smoked, sometimes they look clear.

The turn signals had to be purchased seperate. And yes I would like to buy the sideskirts, but the funds don't permit right now. And no, Im not getting the rear valance. It will only accomidate a 3" exhaust tip. I have the Apex GT. I also have the '99 rear wing which IMO, is much sleeker and more classy then the ricy GT wing.

Jay,
I want springs, but don't want it to effect my 60' times when I drag race. Do you recommend a particluar brand?
TIA,
Ernie

wow, you're plan really is falling into place. Pretty soon you won't have anything left to put "too much money" into. 
I'm sure you'll come up with something. I gotta say, it looked badass enough already, now, watch out!

I'm using H&R Springs on my RX-7 R1. I wish I had done this mod 3 years ago when I bought the car. It's a little bit more comfortable than the R1 springs. I highly recommend these springs. Also, Tire Rack did a test between the H&R Springs and Eibach Springs and they found that the H&R Springs are just a little bit better than the Eibach Springs. I don't know if it's going to hurt your car 60' time, but it's worth it.
It looks like we both have the same plan to go with a single turbo setup. I was at KD yesterday and I was talking to Dave about my plan. It looks like things are going to turn out great.

That's pretty cool, Ernie. No offense, but it's going to look really silly without some side-skirts. That front is very deep and has an elaborate base that flows into some bold sideskirt hints. Looks aren't really my thing, but I just wanted to give you the heads up! 
Have fun anyways!

bored at work? that's a nice shot, though. didn't see in the files.

is it made out of fiberglass? the gt wing doesn't look rice on this car. maybe on civic, but not this one. well that's my opinion.
don't put on the front kit without the side skirts, cuz it'll look
there will also be an unattractive gap between the bottom of your FMIC and the lower lip.
