success :D

so anyway
front bumper usually looks horrible in pics, was all set to change it but in person i kinda like it.
semi long nose i guess you'd call it, and after seeing standard bumper ones around i definitely like the kit

last of my adjustable arms for the rear arrived today so will get the coilovers in soon. needs a good 30mm taken out. Tein springs don't go near low enough for my liking.
rear wheels are -2 offset so i'll need about 3deg camber to make them fit but thats ok. probably do 15mm spacers on the front to bring them out to 0 offset which should match the rear well

Good to have some variety. If all our cars were exactly the same it wouldn't be as much fun. :)

Nice! I'm going through the fun of certification at the moment. Seems like you know your way around the wheel fitments, good to hear. I've got Voodoo rear camber and toe arms (when switching to true coilovers in the rear a toe arm can replace your spring boot.)

I like the rear lip on it too. covers the whole boot as apposed to the factory one.

HR as well. Good choice im a little jealous of that.

from what i understand you can't cert "true coilovers" ?
i should be getting my hands on some factory style BC's so sort that problem ;)

boot lip is nice, carbon even. i think they look weird with nothing

and definitely the HR, probably wouldnt have bought anything else. well worth the extra $$ i think
