i also agree with the spending hundred's instead of g's just to have VOLTEX. it gives the same head turner but personally i think the VIS will get more attention since it looks way more agressive. the only thing i paid a lot for is my side skirts because its the new VARIS super taikyu frp side skirt. had to wait for 3 months but it was worth the wait and every penny because i believe i'm the only one in texas who has it! in TEXAS!!! that's a big *** state =]

word of advice though if you do get this front bumper ditch the undertray because that's just way more weight for the car and it will build up water when you wash it due to the angle of how its going to be

so is that a legit JDM rear bumper then? or is it VIS too? plus can you buy the rear diffuser by itself? or does it have to be included in the whole entire widebody kit?


and to the OP.
WHERES OUR DAMN PICTURES?!?! LOL

yes that is a legit jdm rear bumper. yes vis is willing to part out any kit that they have from what i know of. but anyway to add a story to why i am a big fan of vis. this is actually my second time purchasing the same bumper because my friend hit a curb while i was on jrtc(military training). from then on i never trust anyone with my car not even my friends -_-"... here's is the damage done to the bumper:




for hitting a curb at 20mph so he says its quite durable. i'm just glad it was body damage or else he would've died =]


for the people who wanted to see it unpainted and fitted here it is but forgive me for such a poor resolution, i used my iphone lol:








i hope the pics and info from my experience helped the you guys with the confidence of buying vis parts. if you guys need anything else let me know =] YOU'RE WELCOME VIS!!!

it would also be cool if you guys let vis know that earl pagulayan aka evo_n9ne recomended you guys for this lol.

so it does come with a lip right? or do you have you buy your own?

I have seen this car in person, and it looks awesome. I had VIS parts on my Civic back in the day with no issues. Professional installation and it will look authenic. I cant find myself spending that much money on certain aero parts.
