Really like it other than the front fenders and the tires. Also, your white radiator core support needs some paint!

Currently, i focused more with the aesthetics of the car.. i used to have a few bits of engine accessories but i took them off and sold it because im planning on rebuilding the motor next.

You car is always a work of art.

What size did you get those Volk's in? The fitment looks staggered almost.
i feel the same way about the sideskirts, it kicks up a lot of rocks! but... the kit isnt complete without the sideskirts.

those are Gramlights... 18x10.. they look staggered because they are staggered offsets.

I dont know, but stock evo 8 bumper with do-luck lip and carbon brake ducts and stock side skirts got a little boring for me and Voltex front bumper/sideskirts got way too common so i opt for the next best thing.

The rear def. needs some kind of bumper extensions or diffuser because it does not flow well. But overall, the car looks fantastic.

LSB looks better in person!

The car had VOLTEX diffuser, but I felt that it looked too boxy in the rear with it on.

Yeah, it's aggressive but still has the oem look!

Yup that's next on the agenda, but some people have 600+hp with stock exterior

Well when you have something that was put in a wind tunnel and designed with the aero design in mind...why mess with it? Traction is more delivered via suspension for my setup for AutoX and 1/4.. most aero alterations are for topend speed to give the car the most traction possible at the highest MPH... so your going for 200mph?

Besides I never was one for the show...thats what the wifes car is for

Front end looks awesome. I'll ask, how much for the front bumper, lip and canards? Pm me if you dont want to post it here. I know jdm stuff is PITA. How long it took you to get the parts from bp ? It took me 4 months to order my advan rg-d, 3 months for my voltex diffuser.

I'm undecided between the varis and the voltex front end. I've seen the voltex in person but not the varis. Oh, more importantly, hows the fitment?

It's a tad bit more expensive than the Voltex street bumper even with canards. From bp it took almost 4 months, but well worth the wait! Varis fitment was top notch, no modification needed besides removing the crash beam but that's all JDM bumpers

From everything I heard, you made people wet themselves at WekFest!!!

Car looks absolutely amazing man -- I'm gonna shoot these pics over to Varis, they'll probably end up on their Facebook page soon enough, they love seeing customer cars.

Thanks for the support!
