I try to take what Japanese people like and do the opposite.

Not my style but nicely done. Exaggerated openings/multiple vent scoops does not always translate to an aggressive look.

Wish someone would just make a nice lip to put on the standard S2 bumper, similar to the S1 factory kit. I don't want to replace the whole front bumper since I like how it looks already, expect for the rounded/high bottom part.

Here's another few pictures, I found.. SiLVeRE8, I second what you've said, the Series I front looks much better than the Series II. They did make a bit too roundish?! It's still not bad..

I love r-magic's stuff... but wtf.... I mean its unique to their style.. but wtf

I guess if they end up putting a large FMIC there it will look 10x better

Any better shots of that rear spoiler? It doesn't look half bad from what I can see in the pictures.

You have to add the Carbon to the kit or you can purchase it with the entire kit.
