looks good dude. I like it.

im almost done with a carbon trunk garnish that ive been working on. I think it would look nice on your car. Ill try and take some pics. Ill be putting it up for sale in a couple weeks.

hmm I'd like to see some pics of this. Maybe you can do something like this for my CF trunk...

Ill take some pics in a couple days when its done. Do the CF trunks that you guys have use the USDM size trunk garnish, or is it the longer JDM one.

it's the longer one. You making completely out of CF? or is it wrapped?

Looks good to me. Like the way it looks on that color

Everybody seems to like it, so it can stay. It's going to be another week before I get this thing rolling out of my garage again. The more time my car is down, the bigger my plans get.

Right now I'm contemplating some stage 2 RPW turbo cams (262/252) on top of the RIPP SDS @ 21 PSI for now and later a custom Garrett GT4088R turbo setup running about the same amount of boost. That also means I can have a greater Carbon-Fiber-to-not-Carbon-Fiber ratio.

Love the sound of those plans. Hardest part will probably be fabricating the exhaust manifold which I doubt will be too much of a challenge for you.

What do you all think about the following:

- Carbon fiber B pillar covers
- Replacing under-window chrome trim with black DE trim (already removed the top stuff
- Work Emotion CR Kai wheels in gun metal (current ones are Enkei ZR-1 in Hyperblack with a polished lip)
- 3rd gen tails

I think it'll finish the look I want for the side profile of my car. On the front, I just want the 02-03 heads with an evo-style Seibon/VIS CF hood.

[Alexey]

Yes, eBay

[fatal1]

i like the plans minus the pillars and im not huge on those wheels personally

i think these would look sick on your car or something similar.... obviously since your looking at some works your not afraid to spend a few dollars



i actually almost got these a while back

Yessir.

CF fuel doors are gay. You ought to take off the bottum chrome window trim and paint it black or replace it with the black DE model trim. It will looks so much better even though its a small peice. Nobody ever does it(except me) but this should be done on every 8g.
