Has anyone installed an original JDM Autoexe SE03 Front nose....

How was the fitment...

How much work did it take to make it fit??


Thanks

Dan

 

Plenty of people whom have posted thier install of the SE-02 kit have raved about the fitment,,, Ive seen two in person and they have great seam matching...
Its AutoExe thier stuff is always spot on...

 

the kit looks good but a bit cartoon, smiley...

 

It's the big assed sized vents that I want..............

 

well they dont get bigger than the SE03

 

For sure....

No one installed one yet ?????

 

Its still really new it only debut' this year usually would see them in japan befor the state, usually take someone to take the plunge and then others jump on in,,,, you could be the 'plunger'
you might want to peruse the SuperAutobacs thread in the photogallery section and see if it pops up,,, that thread is chok full of photos from Jap-meets

 

as far as i know only 2 guys here got the version 2 and no one has posted pics of the 3 yet......you might be the first

 

It looks pretty cool, too bad NYC roads are junk. It cracked the bottom of my Mazdaspeed bumper already ..... *sigh* ...

no Autoexe bumper for me ... *sigh* ....

 

I did installed on my 8 yesterday. Couple stuff needs to be remove in order to fit perfect. I did took some photo while installed it. Fitment is perfect dead on! Even fits perfect with my front mount intercooler. Bumper foam must be remove, fender plastic removed, oil cooler duct removed and some small plastic part. Mesh net must be install or else will show the bumper enforcement.
At same time just put in a JDM engine with 1000KM on it.

 

that bumper looks kinda funny

 

Yep, it is smiling at you. Singing "我愛台妹,台妹愛我"

 

^^ thanks...that was what I was looking for

 

Can you post some better pics of your car with the bumper on.
Thanks

 

car is at paint shop now. Will post more pics after done.

 

Here's mine. I customized strakes for the huge side vents cause I didn't really like the gaps.

The fit was perfect by the way, no work needed to be done cept for the custom strakes

 

Acoustix, that kit looks excellent, and your mods really make it stand out! Congrats!! What it really reminds me of is the Audi R8, which is an awesome looking car and like your 8, esp. from the front.

Did you make the strakes yourself of did you have a shop do it?

 

Of course I sell these at the best prices in the US. $655 plus shipping.

Nice, I'mhaving my painted in 2 tone.

 

How much is the hood?

 

The SE-03 hood we retail at $975 plus shipping. Thanks.

wow i have to say i like the strakes in the side vents... how big is are those side vents? How much impact on passing air would you say the strakes have?

 

Thanks for the kind words. I had a bodyshop do the R8-wannabe strakes. Brainstormed to find the best way to fill up the vents nicely. I must say it looks good only because the bodyshop guys were fabulous! Excellent workmanship

 

IMO, no impact at all. It's just three thin slabs of painted acrylic across the oil coolers. The holes of the side vents are huuuuge

 

it looks much better with the strakes~
