Only the HFP ass end
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone had an opinion on a matter I am considering. I am thinking of getting only the ass end piece of the HFP body kit namely because I want to get the evo2 exhaust and it looks alot better with that bumper but also I like the front end of the oem body kit better than the hfp kit. I am also not a fan of the side skirts for the hfp kit, personally i think they look to out of place. So my question is would it look weird to put only the rear end of the hfp kit onto my NBP Si? Thanks a lot guys for your advice.

I was considering this too.....I got rear ended on friday but the only damage was to the lower part of the rear bumper.....it looks like the HFP rear would cover all the damage.....if I get enough from the insurance I might just get the whole kit...

I think the back of the HFP kit looks great especially with the evo 2 but i wish i could get a picture of it with the oem front you know? I am not a huge fan of the front like i said and especially the side skirts so i am just considering the back. Anyone else have some input on how an 06 Si would look with only the back end having the hfp kit? |

Yow! I don't know about that bumper damage...I have doubts that the HFP kit will cover the all the scratches. It never hurts to try, though!

Yeah same, mine's barely noticable to the casual observer, but to me, it doesn't matter how visible it is, it's still there. In addition, I think the ass end of my Si is suffering from uglyness.

RICE!! Just kidding. Well, why not get just the rear bumper HFP wrap, and then see how you like it? You can always get the rest of the kit later. It's not terribly expensive, either.

I dunno, but goto Handa-accessories.com. Really good prices there on factory accessories.

I've been considering this for the past few weeks and have been trying to do some research. Unfortunately I only have pictures to go on and from the side angle it doesn't look like the rear will be much lower then the sides since the rear angles up sharply.
Anyone with an HFP kit willing to find out how much lower the rear sits on the stock rear bumper? If no takers then I will proceed with ordering it, but not for a few more weeks. I'm one of many who have bumper damage.

Go there, choose your trim and color. Click the next button. Under the picture of the car, click the "rear" button, then on the left side options choose "rear spoiler." There ya go. |
