I was wondering this as well. Can you do just the front bumper and maybe the hood? How much does the bra/protection film + installation cost (estimate for sub-compact cars)?

You really can't tell unless you're actively looking for it.

I don't know, I never really got out of that 90s theme.. I liked it. I don't really care for 450hp or more.. I work to much to track right now and I always wished I had a car that would look good with the led kits. Never put em on my 03 civic ( got totaled 7 months after purchase brand new..) or the 03 Altima. Lol Just a simple question.

Send a message via AIM to sysfailur
*SSR Professor SP3R in SBC, probably 17x8.5, 17x9.5.
*Starspecs in 215/45/17, 245/40/17. (to keep rubber costs down.. goin 17)
*Wait and think about coilover and suspension options as they come out with them (or springs if the BRZ supports them properly... maybe Swift's)
*Sway bars / endlinks
*STi front lip + deck lid
*Exhaust of some sort. I'll be going on the quieter end.. no Inivida n1 type this go around. I am loving my Greddy Ti-C, so maybe I'll go with Greddy.

I really don't think I'll want to do much more than that.
