Yeah my last car was white on white, loved it. The Evo cranks too much brake dust I think.

Not a big fan of the C-West rear, so, I left it stock.

I agree, I don't really care for the side skirts or rear bumper, but I love the front bumper. I was thinking about that with the INGS side skirts and rear bumper for mine.

just an opinion but...

I gotta agree, the stock rear bumper really looks out of place with the cwest front and skirts.

white wheels could look really good, but not on the fn01rs. advan RS/RG2, volk TE37/CE28, etc, but not those. if you're not interested in getting different wheels, then I'd leave your zigens silver.

oh yeah, and +1 on painting the grilles black.

I go back and fourth with having the entire kit or not. Tough choice. Looks good, not sure about the white mesh, I dont think I would do it, but thats just me, you do what you think looks good.

Way to go.

Looks tight. I've always been a huge fan of white, and that kit looks the best I've seen it in that color. Even the canards don't bother me like they usually do. I'm also feeling the white wheel idea. I've always thought that would look sick. I would either go that way, or black with a polished lip to accent the canards. Nice work and I can't wait to see what else you do!

Awesome look. I have a question though. What is that in your grill? Part of your intake?

Car looks great. The jdm IX rear bumper would make it look complete. I agree with Naj on the rims, a darker color would be the way to go.
