Andrew the side pieces are bigger on the USDM? Damn that sucks as they look the same in photos. Well at least now you are going to get custom carbon covers.

EDIT: The cowl covers are coming from a LHD region with the shorter front right? Or are those also going to be custom carbon?

Those stubby bumpers do look great, and I thought the stock ones didn't stick out that far though, do they, really? I mean compared to those, yeah, but in general they're ok. Now those headlights, why didn't they do more black in there, kinda strange to me.

Now the color, yes its VERY nice and was my second choice...sometimes I wonder though, "should I have gotten that blue?"

It's was nice meeting you that day, your car is sick. I just remember I wanted to check out your Spoon mirror, but forgot. Oh well, maybe next time.
