I've been debating getting this Autoexec style splitter or a body kit. I've made my decision.

then looks like a R8 @@

^ bleh... i'd say that's just like a civic adding lambo doors.
but again, i don't think we've seen it before, so let's give it a try and let us know :D
i mean worse case scenario is u can just take the whole sheet off if u think it looks bad

It might have been OK if you didn't have the CF hood. That is if you are actual going for the R8 look.
