Yeah, I trimmed down the plastic and cut some metal there. I did as much as I could without compromising the mounting point. I'm gonna take a grinding wheel to it to get it as close as possible. I rolled the fenders now simply because I had the time and the roller.

 

i guess the bumper was garage HRS... i used to have a replica fitted on my asti
im not sure yet abt the chin, but it looks better with the stock chin imo because the line will still flow from front to rear

Why cant they have these in the states

 

Hummm, you're right, it does look better with the stock lip. Maybe if I can find one I can get it paint matched for cheap. I'm not in any hurry though, there's other stuff that money needs to be spent on right now.

 

another thumbs up to a JDM EVO!!!

 

Installed brakes, pads, and lines today! Thanks again Paul and Lucas!




The stopping power is excellent, and a MUCH better pedal feel than before. I have to be careful in the wet, it started raining pretty good when I was on my way home, tested them out, and engaged the ABS by mistake. Still stopped in a good distance, but it was a surprise that's for sure!

Also, I think I may have found a way to make the car look better without completely removing the front bumper. Like 13sinned said above, I think the bumper itself would look good with a stock IV lip, and I found this:

I think it will look great once my wheels are black, along with these:

The only problem is this site is in the UK, so the currency is GBP and the exchange rate ****ing sucks, I'd be spending $400+ shipping on the arches, and $600+ shipping on the lip! So I need to find a place in Japan that sells something similar, I'm sure they are out there, I just gotta find them.

I'd also like to hunt down some wider carbon front fenders, even fiberglass would do, but so far the only one's I've found are from Varis and they are WAY too over the top for my tastes (would go well with the lip spoiler I have on now though).

 

nice car!

 

That is one sick IV, But I think you need to change the rear tail lights out so its not painted. Just my .02 cents.

Funny you should mention that. All they are is light covers, and I'm taking them off. They are cracked up top and to be honest, I don't like them that much the more I deal with them. I'm pulling them off tomorrow morning.

 

Looks amazing! I can't even remember the last VI I've seen. Keep up the good work.

 

I actually like that front bumper for some reason. It makes the car look real aggressive. Yea take thos covers off it dosen't make the car look like an EVO.
