Yup. Sold me on that same spoiler as well...

Why did you remove your side repeaters you had in the front fenders before?

Very nice! Yeah, I am really liking that spoiler too. Nothing to ridiculous looking, just subtle and clean. Is it made of carbon Kevlar?

only if you planning on swapping out your RPF1's for black 10" wide FN01R-C's and full efini badge set then we could be like wonder twins or something gay like that.

Its OK though, just put on your cool face . . .

Yup, I remember this car very well. It looks great in person. Too low to the ground to be practical though. That IC needs some ducting too Maybe shine should make a kevlar duct to match the rest of the body parts

I don't think I'll be swapping to FN01-RCs...I'm gonna stick with the RPFs for now and go badgeless...

Hey guys. Thanks for the compliments. I rarely visit this section on the forum. Knowone's photography skill is amazing and deserves alot of credit for making my car look better than it actually is. Thanks for posting and pointing out this thread to me.

Regarding Kevlar pieces... you either love it or hate it. We just wanted to show what we can do . Clean look is always good, but sometimes you just gotta go ***** out and try something people haven't seen... as long as its not permanent .

My car is low. Yes. Everyone who knows me knows I like it low and sleek. I daily drive my car everywhere. 95k on the chassis. So far.... the kevlar bumper protectors are helping to keep my bumper in tip top shape. Sideskirts rarely ever hit as they are approx 4.5 inches off the ground. Front bumper is approx 2.5-3 inches off the ground which is approx the limit for getting around most places here in L.A. Good thing about the FEED bumper is that front portion is raised up by design. Only the sides of the bumper would scrap. That is the whole idea behind the bumper protector pieces. Even if your car was 4 inches off the ground, the sides of the bumper would scrape eventually.

Tires

front 285/35

Rear 295/35

Very little rubbing if any.

Wheels

Front Advan RZ 18x9 + 25 with 10mm spacer. Will try 15mm very soon. (im always testing the limits

Rear Advan RS 18x10 +15 (most aggressive advan Rs size currently available) with 5mm spacer.
