It's very cool. I really like the builds with it as it works very well with the 2IS headlights. I personally wouldn't go for a conversion because I prefer the 2IS front better, but that's nothing against NIA conversions.

It looks alright.. I would just go for the regular conversion.. I don't like the bulkiness of the front lip of this kit - no pics of the rear?

Also, whats with the eyelids on the lights?? I've never understood why people like that

Nothing fancy, mostly focus on performance related bolt ons with a minor exterior mod here and there as you can see in my sig

I like it. Really dig the side skirts and the rear aprons too.

Default Rim fitment after conversion?

Would you need spacers on the OEM rims now after you switch up the front calipers?

Wow! How many extra horsepower does it give you?! Looks like at least 60-70?

Oooo! How many milligrams of boost do you think it adds? Selling me but too late, I've already got my heart set on this bad boy - style AND substance!
