Some goodies now that I'm forming my mind what to do with the car :twisted:
Copy VS2 front lip thanks to Andreika (just offered up for photo's - great fit with no fixings!)
Image
Image

New battery out of my breaker (and one that's the right size :roll: !) and custom 2.5" cat back (also off the breaker);
Image
Image

Bilsteins (already photographed) and different rear brace (off the breaker);
Image
Anyone know what it is? It does appear to be genuine JDM! :rock:
Image
Image

Took off the ebay CAI and fitted an H22A5/K&N combo to be different (AEM v2 is on the way);
Image

It'll be a while before the rest of those bits get fitted though I think - not top of the priority list - but at least I know where it's starting to go...

Undecided what nostril/headlight combo to go with...
Currently chrome nostril/black headlights.
chrome nostrils/oem silver headlights?
oem black nostrils/black headlights?
:think:

Draw out the text from the top line of the label and I will have a go when I can see it on a bigger screen ;)

That is a cool front lip. But I would say that :lol:


It looks kind of like a GAB brace, the feet are the same but the bar is different.

the lude looks good as it is - front bumper is spot on - get it painted and on the car
is there any other bodywork to be done?
Stick with the chrome nostrils for the time being - having said that i did fit my set of chromies to my lude - they looked terrible so took them back off straight away :lol: I like the preface single slat nostrils in black ;)

8-)
Was hoping it was Cusco - I intend to take off the current matching AC pair and flog them, put the Cusco on the rear and ask @mart609 if his sexy Tanabe front is still for sale, so I can put that on the front :twisted:

The current braces are rare and it is nice to have a matching set, but they're not to my stylistic taste (obviously this is vitally important with handling mods ;) )
