Looks fresh man. That bumper seems to fit fairly well from what I can see. But now it's time for some new wheels and clear corners!

^+1. And I think the front could use another 1/2" drop.

Love the Borla!

haha, I love the gator comments :D

definitely going to get some mazdaspeed rims, but im keeping the orange corners, dammit!

and yeah definitely needs half an inch to an inch in droppage!

but yeah, we did this ourselves- three guys, and a $600 paintgun did the installation, paint, everything- out of my buddies backyard lol

this is my buddies old kit, and he was the one who did the original work on it. everything was paper-thin when he first got the raw pieces of fiberglass- it was all wavy, bent, and looked like hell. so he spent about a whole month just trying to beef it up with more layers of fiberglass, sanding it down, etc. and was originally painted titanium gray.

fast forward a few years, he decided to sell his 8 because hes leaving the states, so I got
his borla and kit for a good deal. fitment wasnt an issue, since that had been done previously! :D

but it did still require about a week straight of sanding, priming, painting, and installation, but it was all worth it- I'm so proud of my new baby!!!
