its the vis racing. The duct on the side for me is especially useful, the intake charge pipe faces towards driver side firewall on the turbo setup, and with this the duct on the side I feel it'll help out a lot.

Also, with the rain cover off, the APR R1 recirculation valve is pretty dang loud since it's very close to the middle vents.

Thanks heartagram

I've got a VIS authenticity badge on the under side of the hood. A shop got it for me.

my previous hood had a lot of chips from driving. the car is actually not that mint looking, it was all in the photo. I haven't washed/detailed the car since the middle of august, I park outside where I get sap and bird **** on it all the time. But the paint has treated me well luckily. there are a few chips around but you wont see it unless you are close.

But you can forget what I just told you and consider it mint lol. Just wash and protect with wax/polish when you get the chance
