Cool. On a side note, the new RHD Japan site SUCKS.

Now looking at it, I'm not feeling it. Nothing special about the bumper

The body kit makes the stock body lines look clean! I like it!

Well, I got one, so I thought I should post up for all to see! It's quite a bit taller? than the feed bumper, and juts out farther at the bottom. It fits nicely with the feed fenders, the vent makes more sense with it's leading lines into the cutaway than the feed triangle. You can see the profile of the bottom splitter type part from quite a way back as it protrudes quite aggressively. It also curves inward then back out, so you can see the front of the tyre. I really like that! Forgot to take a profile/side on shot will do it soon!

What are the odds shine would take a crack at the bumper?

Seems pretty low to me.... I wish they did but there's lots of front bumpers they could take a crack at. I think they just produce whole bodykits together. I'm hoping they're able to produce the feed hood 2.

Dude! the car is perfect. Very nice job on execution. Question, are those fenders the 25mm? I think the bumper updates the 90's style look very well. Did you have to do much work on the bumper to make it fit or is their fitment good?

Few people have asked for more shots, I have a few more here. The bumper works 100 times better with the feed or RE fenders, the lines of the vent on the bumper lead perfectly to the cut away unlike the weird triangle on the feed bumper I had. And the lip on the bumper works perfectly with the side steps! Fitment was pretty perfect and they are +25mm feed fenders.

Definitely love this bumper. Love your FD as well!

I love the how on lighter colors, you can contrast the body color and make the inner area black or what not, definitely gives it a nice touch. Definitely not bad either for $970 USD

Thanks man!

Yeh I agree the contrast is cool, on a white car it's perfect! On black I didn't think it'd be different enough and could look unfinished so I played it safe!

Anyone in the states able to snag this bumper from KS? I've been emailing back and forth for 2 weeks and I'm having no luck. They said I need a customs agent and since I didn't have one, they're going to find a way for me. I've never had to do this before so I'm pretty lost. Right now I'm just ready for them to take my money and give me the bumper.

Based on the price point on the bumper you will fined few people that will buy and ship over to the states. It one of the best looking front bumper for the FD.
