Is there a reason you haven't commented on the Si seats? Several members were looking into this and you haven't mentioned anything about them since you got them. Did they not work?

Cheers,

Super clean! I love the Mugen rear. I'd like the front too, but I have a Base so no go there sadly.

Oh you could go there. I did. I have a base with a sport bumper. Check out the link in my signature. I have documented my progress so far. I want the Mugen body kit but now I'm having trouble justifying the cost... I will most likely do the kit by the end of the summer.

I personally don't feel any different yet. It might be because I don't have front strut bar yet. Time will tell.

^^^^It seems that he doesn't want to comment for some reason. I have asked several times and PM'd, but to no avail. I can only assume it didn't work, or he didn't get around to doing it.

the adapters on the oem alloys look great! the sport wheels are kinda skinny, just wondering if it looks weird from behind.

I would agree with you on this. I am running 225/35R18 with 18 x 7.5 +42 now. No wheel adapters/spacers.

Sorry, I am quite busy lately. I have not had a chance to post any update. But I installed map light LED, dome light LED, license plate LED, Si seats, 18x7.5 +42 wheels with 225/35R18, etc.

Wow, so many parts......
Basically this car was just a shell and loads of stuff were added afterwards!!

These mods cost a fortune. Looks very nice but I will probably never do them to my car...
