The front tow hook is mounted to the front bumper support with some large bolts and spacers so it comes out without cutting the bumper.

also I stated I have the side skirts. they just need to be mounted and painted.

BrineSI · 04-10-2008, 11:47 AM

Ah, so close. Your pics are from great angles but many aren't in focus and the exposure is off. And for the car, I see you've been abusing your front bumper quite a bit, the vents on your front air dam are all mangled and should have never been painted, you should have them paint it back to a flat black or just remove the silver paint, the front would look x10 better. Your drop looks great but you also desperately need those mugen side skirts on, that'll look veddy nice.

How do you like your intake / DCRH / WS2 combo? I have the same header and exhaust with the reflash as well and love the sound!

If you removed all the ugly stickers, removed the AEM license plate frame, installed the sideskirts, fixed your front bumper paint job and got some really good pictures, this could maybe be a ROTM contender...

I know we rushed the shoot so we didnt have time to get everything right. I didnt paint the vents, it was a goof by the dealership after an accident and so is the "mangled vent". Thatwhole bit is being removed to make room for the intercooler. I know I need the skirts, they are being modded and painted to fit right now. Ugly Stickers? IDK what you are referring to. as for ROTM, trends lately would say Im not stock enough.

Looks really good, although at second look I would recommend a chamber kit because you don't want to ruin those rubbers. But congrats and looks killer!

THANKS!!!!
I am already running a Skunk2 rear camber kit. you have to camber the wheels in to fit that offset and also camber doesnt ruin tires caster and toe do

You have more than 10 - there should be some kind of limit, at say 2

^lolz...

illusionstwice · 04-10-2008, 01:15 PM

Ride looks good. Once the skirts are on, it will bring it all together. Nice job so far. Im just not a fan of that wing. Never have been, never will be. It looks horrible to me. I just think its so out of place on a coupe, not that it will look better on a sedan. But, to each his own. Thats your style.

:Invisible rep:

***Jamo_FG*** · 04-10-2008, 02:14 PM

car looks great man...keep it up

JeShUa · 04-10-2008, 02:34 PM

That front lip/rear lip looks tacky. CF.. not a huge fan. Wheels look great but never will go for that lip kit you have even with sideskirts.

Theres no reason the pics should look like that

***"Ridge"Racer*** · 04-10-2008, 02:36 PM

ride looks fricken amazing except for one thing, that front lip has GOT to go, maybe hfp with a splitter or something, but for the love of god, please get rid of the front lip and i will nominate you for rotm. good job!

the rear lip actually seems to flow nice with the wing you have, i like it and get rid of the sticker horse power, really takes away from the clean look you seem to be going for.

thehov · 04-10-2008, 02:48 PM

lOOks GooD! Would look perfect with some side skirts!

Ambilobe · 04-10-2008, 02:50 PM

Asif22 · 04-10-2008, 02:54 PM
