OK...I know I should wait until I can get some better pics, but I can't. Here ya go...

Finally the carbon fiber hood (with a little custom LY paint work) ;)

..and the JDM rear bumper
http://imagenode.com/ua

The bumper ended up being a nightmare to get repaired and painted...was torn up when I got it. I also still need to go back so the paint shop can do some better color-matching (it didn't quite blend right, especially on the hood). I'll update this thread with much clearer pics later.

Oh yeah...yes I know it needs rims ;) hahaha

Matt,

Your car is looking AWESOME. :shock: When I get a cf hood, that's exactly what I want to do to it too. Keep up the great work, and keep us posted with what happens next. :wink:

Thanks all! I totally forgot, but I have to give tons of thanks to FIA up in Stockton. Sam really came through on the hood and was awesome to deal with (and one hell of a drive with too! ;) ). Also, thanks for all the NCE guys who gave me hood options. As for the bumper, it is from the Evo VII and I did need to remove the crash beam. I plan on getting it cut and then re-install for the piece of mind of having it there.

I vote for blacked-out headlights and tails... or JDM MR sets!! The orange signals work well on a LY evo IMHO

pizza's are overrated. if you get me a large box pork fried rice and a small box of spicy general chicken then i'll think about it

Damn that looks nice! Did you have the rear bumper on the other night? I didn't really get a good look (the carrows parking lot was rather dimly lit). I am certainly envious of your rear bumper...now all you need is a night rider sensor light for each slot in the grill. We'll leave the thundercats sticker up to sam.

if your going to get them painted use the metalcast paint from Duplicolor(smoke) and they will turn out like the IX

Thanks Matt. I hope you are happy with your hood and soory about the 7 conversion it was sold that night after I left. I will have a new set next week and you can have the first dibs on what ever you need, just let me know. Also you can give the same price for the hood for one more customer of your choice, we will call it "Matt" special.
