i was gonna offset the rotary logo with black rims and might be adding the carbon fiber trunk, not to sure yet. Right now Im working on getting my two sun visor tv's in. I bought them and they were two big ugh. The Fogs are angel eyes, they halo blinks with my blinkers..... Thanks for the comments guys, keep em coming

nice i was thinking the same thing how much was the kit? Also is a genuine ms part (just modified) or is it fabricated from acosta? If the latter; what material is the kit made of? Thanks !

The Front was 735, of course I live like 10 minutes from them so I picked it up. The quality is decent, it is fiberglass, and it is the MS kit modified with the air induction.

why would you say that i thought that RB's intake was going to be VDAF tuned and a large ram air hole like that would make all the work they put into box around their intake rather pointless ?

no..they are in a sense bypassing the whole VFAD system but what i'm referring to is the ready access to an influx of cooler air..so far the way their box "looks" to me like it's designed, it should be the only one fit to handle a 'sort of' Ram air type flow that would be introduced by this modification to the MS bumper...

I wouldn't retain the stock VFAD system. It is the restriction in the stock system. It wouldn't be too hard to make that opening work very well with their box and still have the benefits of a tuned system.
