Not too bad at all.

I really dislike those bonnet scoops though as they always look "tacked" on like a scoop on a Lancer.

Did I read right..... "Cusco spark plugs"?

I only really got the bonnet scoop because no one else had them, but yeh I see your point. The paint job has been poor so Im considering getting a custom bonnet for next year.

Just needs some club.lib stickers now Geno :)

what about tuner lug nuts in cusco (or deep metallic blue) too..... matches with upcoming brembos and tyre cap

carbon wrapping is a unique idea as well... good idea on wrapping the chrome strip at the rear (subtle), but I would have left the front strip (under the licence plate) as the original black - its a larger surface area, and is a bit "too much" carbon. But hey thats just my opinion!

Look forward to seeing the brembos behind your awesome rims Geno

Love the wheels and brembos will make them look even better :good:
Throw a lip to the list helps lengthen the front IMO


Thanks mate, I would love to get the lip, but it would get damaged everyday getting into my driveway guaranteed.

Fair enough. Everyday i find myself guessing the angles/heights of curbs and driveways to avoid scrapping the front!
mod -> tune -> drive -> get bored -> repeat...

I did have some lib sticker on the back but a few letters fell off so I got rid of the rest. Where can i get some ?

Lug nuts i already put these ones already. Like a rainbow shiny gloss colour.
The caps are the standard AVS ones. Cant wait til my brembos. Wheels feel very naked without them and rotors look way too small.

For some reason, the front strip plastic black was fading and it looked cheap. I still intend on changing this next year, maybe a whole new bumper ;)
Not a big fan or carbon on cars, so I tried to make it as subtle as possible....

Back end looks sweet. Good job. Nice plates also (although front and rear don't appear to match!)
I got this plan. It's called 'Save Ass'. And the way it works is this - I slip outta one of these windows and I run like a bastard!

Wow the angel eyes look good on the Gen V. Would love to see a darker evening or night time shot too.

Thanks mate.
Quite a simple job, only needed to remove HKS rampod and battery.
Performance wise, not exactly the best bang for your buck mod, but just wanted one. I drive auto and it feels alot more responsive revving from 2nd to 3rd and gear change is cleaner.
