clean...

very clean. I didn't think anything oem of jdm could match the good look of the 99 spec bumbers and turn signals, but your set-up is on par with it. I'm actually debating whether to go with the 99 spec front bumper or with the one you have. Looks extremely clean. always been a fan of black rims too. nice job.

nice, very clean! Im not too crazy about painting the efini logo *black* though.

I see that you gotten better at using the Adobe Photoshop program. I can hardly tell that one of the head light cover is still silver. lol..jk!

I love the 99-spec spoiler yet wing-less look! My only prob with the spec lip is I'd like it body-color painted without the split in the middle and the extended wheel-well edges. It kinda looks tacky and Pep Boys bolt-on on a US-spec bumper. Someone could make a killing with a one-piece spec0style lip that actually fits on an OEM base or replaces the R1 lip. Why hasnt anyone come up with one for US spec fronts and those who don't want to spring for the 99-spec reinforcement and T/S harness conversion? Any takers?


*Edit* Never mind, I've got a plan so disregard... muhahaha...

Very nice, Mitch. You had called me a few months ago, and I returned your call that night but never heard back from you. My car is at the body shop getting some work done and will hopefully be out by the end of the month. We'll have to get together.

Beautiful car! Nice and clean no rice...dumb question but the rear diffuser....what aerodynamic benefit does it have? Is it really effective in highway driving or more for looks?

Thanks

Well, one would like to think it actually gives a benefit but... in the real world the undeside of the fd would need to be smoothed out greatly for it to actually provide any type of real world gain.

Actually I am very secretly getting back into the game. Everythings on a super hush hush so don't ask cuz I won't say anything. It will have a ton of ridiculous power and suspension components tho
