i like the feed one. the 99 front, while nice, looks a bit TOO happy. i just don't think i've seen any sides that go particularly well with the feed front thoe.

Yep
The Feed Style one is from RotaryExtreme
The 99 is from Pettit.

Hey, TTT, I gotsa start makin $$$ first! As soon as I do, into the body shop she goes and the OEM side skirts and rear mud flaps will go in with it

Then its a freer flowing exhaust (Going with Borla)
Then a coil over kit
Then (FINALLY) begin to start saving for wheels ( K59 )
and maybe somewhere inbetween an IC

I can't wait to get my wheels

I forgot whos FD this is, but this is pretty much how my sides will look once installed and painted.

same question here? Also, do you have any pics of the fitment of the pettit front, or any comments? I really wanted the 99 spec front, but i don't want that damn license plate holder. Whats the price tag on the pettit front?

The Pettit front is Fiberglass. It's $550 without the lights or the front splitter.

Hey, I'd like to get the '99 front. Pettit looks to be the cheapest I've seen so far. How is the fiberglass replica holding up? Is it pretty strong?
