While we're on the subject of kaminari I will put my 2 cents in since I have the kit. I think the kit is great except for the front bumper. Fitment is perfect all the way around, and the sides and rear look awesome, but I don't think the front bumper is anything special. As someone said earlier, it is a little short for an intercooler (my intercooler hangs about a half inch below the bumper) and just isn't that aggressive. I mean the kit isn't the most aggressive kit, but I've seen people who have the kaminari sides and rear with a different front end and it looks way better to me. I'd get a new front end for mine, but I think I'm gonna get a cf splitter instead. Overall, it is my favorite kit, minus the front bumper. Swap the front for another, or get a cf splitter and you'll be happy with the kaminari.

 

^sweet feedback guys, helpin my noob *** alot. so if i opp for a cf kit, would it clash if i put a cf hood, front, skirts, and rear along with say black tinted windows, a cf spoiler (not too ricey) and just went for a black of cf "looking" mesh for it and had a cf on white theme or would i lok like a total rice eating retard. i'll try and photo shop some too for u all...

 

good question. to me, cf is great as an accent, but like any accent, if it becomes the prevailing design element, it just looks tacky and of course overused. cf hood good. cf spoiler good. cf hood, your straddling the edge. cf fenders tacky. cf front bumper tacky. cf side skirts tacky, etc etc

sorry to offend anyone, but thats my opinion. keep cf as the accent only, don't overuse it.

 

I'm with Green psycho on this (again) CF to me on bright colored cars should be used as Accent pieces only. Its all a balancing act. if you add a little here and there not too bad. But putt too much and it just looks like clutter. CF as a lip Kit would be hot. Possibly a hood and trunk. I just never liked the idea of CF full bumper or Fenders. Yeah occasionally ive seen it done nicely, but again IMO a full CF Front (bumper, fenders, hood) looks alot better on darker color cars. a Full CF front on bright colored cars looks like the car is suffering from an identity crisis.

But in all honesty it depends on what you think, not what others think. If you like and can live with your choices, then it is for you.

 

lol, i think it looks safe!

 

^w00t! now i just have to find "the balance" and i'll be set
