| It's absolutely stunning man... but agreed on the mesh... should consider to paint it black. |

I like the look of the front bumper. If I were you, I might consider doing the centre section of the bumper in a flat black ....(similar to the OE bumper), or maybe do a CF "vinyl" instead, along with the single strake in the noise/grill....to match with the canards, wing and fender vents. Might be a better (and easier) option.
Also, the mesh might be better in black.

How dare you insinuate that I am instigating rice!!!!
Seriously though I'm only referring to the central portion of the bumper (what's that....like 1 foot in length or something?).....where is normally black in the OE bumper....the piece right in the middle......either put it back in black, or......do a CF wrap on it. Leaving it in red only makes the two "central vents" look out of place IMHO. It'll go well with the other parts.
Other than that, yes....I look down on folks who resort to vinyl.

WOW thanks very much. That's a huge compliment. My bumper went to the paint shop this morning to do exactly what you suggested. Good suggestion  |

correct on the wheels except Volk calls the wheel colour 'burnt silver'. Very interesting colour.
yes there is a clearance issue only when turning sharply as it rubs on the fender shield. Some company (can't remember the name right now) sells an aftermarket, still functional shield as a fix. |

not feeling the FB nice stuff though.
interesting to see the drivetrain upgrades, not sure whats there for the Evo X yet. would hate to see you put down some nice numbers on the dyno and then have trouble putting it on the road! |
