No new updates yet, they just took on another project which is keeping them real busy. They're working on the new Honda CR-Z, I guess they want to be the first manufacture to come out with a kit for the Honda CR-Z. I'll keep the thread updated on new and further developments..

looks amazing. Orginally I was thinking only oem lip, but now I might be tempted to get this once the finished product is out.

Bump! The rear bumper is primered, looks very nice! It would look a lot better painted with a clear coat on it, but we'll just have to wait until that time comes, which is hopefully soon!

Looks pretty good, I could do without the raise as it nears the liscence plate area but still looks pretty good, I love how smooth everything is on the underside, but I think the exhaust shroud area is waaaayyy big, you'll need Racing Beat dual tip for that,,,

The profile of the rear looks good but when you look at it straight on it gets very bulky. This kit is way too busy for my tastes.

boy i came to this thread late!!

i agree skirts are way too busy

front really came around once they ditched the extra holes in the bottom

i am not feeling the back. it's ok, but like someone said, it's too close to stock. i bet some will really like that...a cleaner version of oem rear basically, but to me not worth the money.

well I've been checking out some bumper which C-West makes for other cars and they don't seem too pricey compared to majority of the JDM kits out there. Kind of a good news, but don't know for sure yet.....

Looking at the way the bottom portion of the splitter in the wheel well area and the corner of the rear bumper, I would think that the INGS side skirts would be the cleanest setup instead of the busy sides C-West is offering.
