Updated my Signature pic for you guys :)
I know, my old pic was wayyyyy outdated..
Took a couple new pics today, actually my girl took all these...
- I know, stock front = fail
- The car looks low and rim lip is almost touching the fender... but I want to lower it more....

chargespeed
There was a little indentation in the center of the bumper for the chargespeed logo, but I had the bodyshop shave it smooth so the indentation was eliminated. Fitment looks great to me, not sure though because I didn't install the bumper so I don't know what all went into getting it on the car. All i know is that I had to shave the inner part of the wheel well part of the bumper because my wheels are too big and kept rubbing.

First of all sorry to threadjack, but it felt pertinent. I just had my Chargespeed rear put on and my body guy had to spend about ten hours to get it to fit right. Also when they baked it there were quite a few imperfections that had to be fixed. One of the lower fins even broke right off in the baking process. All in all I am very happy with the end result, it's just too bad the the paint and labor cost as much as the bumper did.

I was thinking about getting aftermarket something...
but I don't want the chrome tip to be noticeable....
Plus I like the sound of the stock exhaust I don't want to sound like a ricer honda, it's bad enough I have stock altezza tail lights (those are going away soon).

hood pins for my carbon fiber hood
new front bumper
meh..... definitely not happy with it.......
not what I was expecting...
And WTF with all the chicken wire crap everywhere...
I am going to have to get the license plate holder removed and the big indent part shaved flush.........
bottom air vents have to be cut out
The grill is molded into the bumper.... wtf... gonna have to cut that sheeit out...
By the time I'm finished modifying this I might as well just got a real L-Tuned bumper (if I can ever find one...)
Moral of the story = Say no to cheap knockoffs!!
