Which is why I keep my girls wet lol. Compliments to you and your awesome designs mr. df aero. I hope I have the patience to hold off on other trunks before yours is released.

I don't need "Carbon Fiber". I'm ok with cheaper alterantives, as long as it's high quality and fits right. Even if it ends up being Carbon Fiber it gonna get painted to match.

I understand, I just like the look of the over fenders. I would consider having them cut or pulled if they looked good. They add a little something without being overly aggressive.

I like, i'm part of the crew that would rather not have carbon fiber. i would offer it as an option but as long as fitment is good i don't care what material it is or how much it weighs as long as it's not really heavy.

I like it. Having said that, I don't think I would get that particular lip (then again it's hard to tell not seeing a BRZ option). I does look good though

Hm... I'm not fully into the lip. middle part looks weird... if you fix a bit more and have that fang things showing, it might look better

What u mean by "fang" u mean the pointy tips of bumper? Those we will try to remove atm and try a more flatnose approach to subtle the front area abit.

Yes he means the pointy tips. Why would you want to get rid of the fangs? If people didn't like the fangs, they would have gotten the BRZ. That's what distinguishes the two cars.
