at the ricer comments. I wouldn't have something that big on the front of my car and even if I did, it wouldn't be raw CF. But it ain't my car so what I would or wouldn't do is immaterial. Synolimit did an excellent job - the fit and finish look very professional.

Too much for my taste? Yep (not that it matters).
Ricer? Nah. My definition of ricer includes the term "non-functional." If they were on my car, which seldom gets above 80 on straightaways and I don't think I've ever gone through a turn fast enough to need canards, that would be ricer.

Looks good man, been following your DIY mods. Like your other mods, everything looks professional.

Is that plasti-dip or vinyl? I thought your car was silver? Either way the matte white looks good. I thought about it but the vinyl guy quoted $3K.

I'm on fencing about either cutting a hole in the center of the hood like you or paint an aftermarket cf hood. Leaning towards custom hood vent (no pins to deal with and potential fitment issues). Need to cool the super hot engine for FI.

Haha yea I'm well aquatinted with that unfortunately I've worked with carbon fiber and fiber glass before in shorts and short sleeves. No good. I think I'll try working with ABS for my DIY. Maybe even lexan. We will see. Regardless yours looked great

Thanks.

Its dip. Yeah FI needs a vent for sure. The turbo needs a blanket too if you can fit it.

Could only sell them for a 13+ unless I got an older cars bumper for fitment. Plus I have enough with day job, second job and porting business.
