Very clean car!! BTW ... did you fabricate the top cover for the IC to the Rad.? I just fabbed a underbelly and top section similar to yours.( mine is smaller, i like yours better, more coverage.) The underbelly and ducting to the radiator gave me a 15 degree cooler temps! At full boost i rarely get above 195. My heat went up cause of the FMIC. Soooo. long story sorry. Did you notice any difference in temps with yours? And if you didn't make it who did and how much was it? Again very nice car, and sorry if this is out of place and off topic.. Aloha Dave

Dave,

I did fabricate the radiator deflector shield. I noticed a drop in water temps during the summer. I dont know exactly how much, but it did make a difference. Thank you for the compliments.

FortyOunce---Where did u get that GTC rear diffuser? I really like the GTC kit, but im kind of against buying it cuz i cant find that diffuser anywhere. Also does anyone know if you can buy the 99spec light covers separately and mate them up to a replica bumper? $1300 or w/e it costs is pretty steep for that bumper.

GTC diffuser was bought through Corksport who imported it from japan. took about 3 months to get. lenses for the bumper cannot be purchased separately.

The judge! You'd think the judges would know that kind of thing, wouldn't you? How doesn an car show judge not know what an FD is? Thats just wrong.

The car looks awesome BTW, I love it. It looks pink in your avatar too, you should fix that up

Does anyone have a close up picture of the install of these lights or a set of instructions that I could have a look at?
Thanks

Spoiler looks good. Car looks great. I am tired of the "riced out spoiler" thing.

The JUDGE?!?! Well, I guess in that case you shouldnt feel too bad about placing second to a riced out Protege, they probably thought that was an elongated civic SI...
Gotta love those HL, too bad they are soo friggin' expensive...
