Very nice, and I think you're the first. But, if you want to go for the real authentic look, you go to have the the real mirrors. If I'm not mistaken, the real FQ mirrors are carbon fiber.

dude. that is one heck'uva camera phone you've got there

Yeah..thanks guys

They are actually CF "look" mirrors and I wasn't really diggin em.Way pay $60-$70 more for some fake CF when they are an A$$load anyway.

The wheels are the Regular Pro Race 1's (anth color) painted Gloss blk w/ my Home made FQ center cap(using the stock cap).Ol' dirty Volk lugs to match.

But in All reality the same thing IMO.Just didn't pay $2300 or $1400 only$800 for everything.Not fronting like they are the real deal,though I almost payed for "those",....just hate Waiting.

Thanks to Bullfrg(Jeremy) for selling me his.

They look worse there cuz they were being manhandled and Greased up as to not mess up the wheel putting tires on them.As well as the 255/40 Azenis would not "bead" on them so I had to throw those back on untill my new tires arrive.

Those are off my old STi and I swear I've gotten over 30k+ miles out of them & jstill have a few hundred/1000 miles left on them on the rest of the tires..that one is because I'm waiting to do my Alignment
.I will get another set of RE070's (too bad they are a tiny bit thinner than Advans) some day, but got some OEM advans coming now.


dude. that is one heck'uva camera phone you've got there
Razor phone.its like a 2.0 megapix camera.


wheels are painted Lexus ES330 Onyx Blk :lol:

AznX TL Feb 16, 2006 07:09 PM

wow you got actual FQ wheels? yeah your in need of Real Ralliart CF side mirrors for a complete look, and hopefully you already have a Vortex gen.

hueman Feb 16, 2006 07:32 PM

looks great! i remember when bullfrg got those TDRs... and now look at them... all grown up :p

navypaul Feb 16, 2006 07:34 PM

really nice +1

fromWRXtoEVO Feb 16, 2006 07:38 PM

Not bad but what about the 6 piston calipers? and the front carbon fiber lip? did you already got the vortex? the regular evo 9 bumper would not do the job , the fq 400 has a special opening for its unique Exhaust.

The brake caliper are different as well, they have little cooling dents. Then you need a bunch of side stickers .

I am not trying to disencourage you, I like your car, I think is just not going to happen at 100%, it might cost you a few thousand dollars to duplicate just the outside..
