Just recently finished the new look for 2014-2015. What do you guys think?

BTW: the car will be up for sale in 2 weeks after this last show this weekend.

P.S. the first pic is before i polished the hood (had oxidation and water spots) second and third photo is after the hood was polished...big difference

 

Looks great man! Why would you sell it though so soon after putting in all that hard work?

 

where do you find that front bumper??

 

Absolutely love your car. Gonna hate to see it you get rid of it since I won't be seeing updates on pics

Question though, third picture, the hood and bumper don't line up. Is that fitment of the hood/bumper or is it just popped up?

I just ordered the same hood:P

 

its the hood.. I have had 2 SEIBON hoods This one and TSII and now the TS hood and they Both are a P.I.T.A to fit U will likely have gaps like that...

 

I thought SEIBON has a fitment guaranteed? So I take it that it is more of a "yeah it bolts to the car" kinda guarantee?

 

SEIBON is copy cat stuff too, they have somehow just morphed into what is considered by many to be "legit". Fitment is always pretty bad though on the hoods, I have seen a ton of them in person.

Car looks good Phalex, just needs the power to back up the look. But I guess you are moving on.

 

My old bumper looks good on the car

 

I've heard its still typically better than VIS so not all is lost I suppose

the hood was just popped cause we were polishing it. If you look in the first picture you can see its lined up

 

it was popped, the fitment on mine is spot on and its not SEIBON.

If you look in the first picture the hood is perfectly lined up.

 

It looks amazing to say the least haha, everyone is drooling over it

 

which do you have?

^^vis

 

Hopefully my fits as well as yours then. Did you add clear coat when you got it? I watched a video on these chemical guys and they claim their protective solution with keep it from turning yellow wihtout clear coating it again.

mine took 2-3 years for any oxidation/water spots to occur. this was the first time i buffed it and waxed it and it looks pretty much brand new. However i would still need to add a layer of clearcoat.

I did however modify the fitment at first. if there is a spot that has a gap your going to adjust the ***** at the front of the engine way where the hood sits on.

 

That's a lot longer than I'd expect it to last anyhow. Impressive. I guess I'll be playing with the ***** Friday. Hopefully I'll end with good figment.

Looks great! Why sell it after you just got the bumper?

That's a pretty good looking bumper. Will they start making canards for it too like their other kits?
