That isnt a FEED front, nor is it a replica of it. Good job bringing the car back to good form though.

Actually, that is an expired plate off one of my old FC's. As soon as a title issue gets straightened out with this car, I'll be getting (depending on availability)

First off congrats on the car it looks good. My only critique would be the fact that I have never liked those type of mirrors but its your car and if you like it then thats great. The spoiler needs to be changed I think it just looks to out of proportion with the rest of the car. Go with the feed if you do. Just my .02 cents but it does look really good. Nice job.

I was told it was, but I got it from an obscure supplier. I suppose that it is just a 99 replica with a lip added on then? All I know is, not many people run this. I have only seen one other FD with it.

Same reason I went with the rear diffuser. Not many people run them. Everybody has the same damn thing, the cwest type kit.

Ditch the diamond clear rear lights. They don't match anything else.

I agree with Jeff. I saw lots of those clear lights at the Revo this weekend and they don't look very good. But I DO love the diffuser

Well, they match the other lights on the car...the sidemarkers, and the clear/amber 99 turns...

What you mean you actually *like* those stock, red, faded rears? Wow, that is the last thing I ever expected to hear.

wow, never seen so many different knockoff parts on one car.
Thanks...I think.

ONly light rubbing when theyre cut all the way, such as in a parking lot.

Make that a third vote.

BTW, which side skirts are these? I looked on the Rotary Extreme site and couldn't find them. I've never seen them before, and I think they're probably one of the cleanest designs I've seen.

The front end is actually the Fusion front end. Not the feed.

Not a fan of the unpainted CF hood, but it's your car
