Kinda looks like INGS+1 kits.
Like the one I have on my STI. Haha.

Especially the sides. If you look at ING's kits...most of them have a design like that.
Did they come with the side spoiler things?

I love this car, but the cf hood needs to come back. I dunno about the emblem, maybe if it was placed correctly it would look better. (its too low) Either way, this car is one of a kind for sure.

thanks guys.
the cf hood looks good from a distance, but when you're right at it the quality is atrocious! (horrible) ...so until i figure out what to do with the hood situation im just going to drive around with the oem one.
OMP prelude guy made a custom vent on his so maybe i'll do something along the lines of what he did.

And the Red H will always get on peoples nerves but thats ok! I love it and enjoy confusing people as some still to this day tell themselves it's a TSX they're looking at...i overheard someone saying "look at that tsx" while i was at nopi.

The "H", Meh, I can do without, and I loved the CF hood. I hope you can bring it back. But I do understand the need at times for a "change-up".
This is still one of my personal faves on AZ and will continue to be! After all, it's really only "semi-WDP"! Hahahaha! Keep having fun bro!
P.S. - What about this vent?:

You know what I may try to get down there. I will PM you for you number we can meet up if I make it down that way. Still have the RSX and it's great. The project is going a little slow because of lack of funds but still adding new parts seems like monthly.

Hell yeah i'll definitely be at VIR this weekend for sure. The weather will be mid 80s and sunny unlike last year (40s and cold drizzle) that shit was for the birds!
The Spoon cars will not be there though
Let me know if anyone wants to go. There is a thread in OFF TOPIC under meets.

i believe you've got those splitters from VIS motorsports. i tried not to buy anymore body kits from them, 'cause they use cheap materials.......my previous car i used to have, the paint started chipping off on front bumper badly. And Chris is an asshole with capital 'A'!

I saw the product in a magazine and immediately knew it was something that might work.

I like it, gives it an edgy look. Don't really know what thats supposed to mean, but it's good
Weren't you looking to do a carbon fiber roof?
