Here's one of the engine bay

I painted the Knightsports 'cooler, HKS DLI and the AST black as I hate chromey bling in the engine bay as well as trying to keep everything stock looking since the cops here just love to defect you! My philosphy with the Spirit is to keep all the iconic Spirit parts on the car, but only mod the generic FD bits, that way she stays unmolested and a sleeper

cheers.

So under the rear mud flaps (on the sides of the diffuser) you have these additional fairings/flares ... what are they and who makes them? They finish off the RE-A diffuser much nicer than just the diffuser alone which to me looks a little awkward (I have one too). Anyway, props on the car... lets see some interior shots!!

I lived in Concord, then Pleasant Hill before moving to the Berkely Hills. I used to fly "JetCopter 810" for KGO for 3 years all over the Bay so it's my second home

These are OEM rear mudflaps with no modifications. I had my painter paint the outer "strakes" of the diffuser the same colour as the body of the car, as I didn't like the "tacked on" look of body coloured mudflaps over a black diffuser, it blended the rear end of the car nicely I think!

P.S. Interior pics please!

Knightsports.I used to have an Amemiya one but I found it rattled like hell and was very annoying.The Knightsports one is superior in that it's a solid piece,has far better mounts with rubber grommets built in to absorb viration, and its red to match my OEM strut brace!
