Thanks man. I'm thinking Mazdaspeed to come... Still debating on it though since it's a 40th AE.

Thanks, they're actually HFP (Honda Factory Performance). I love the look of his custom retro'd headlights myself. Stock wheels on mah 8 but I want some Work wheels @_@.

HAHAHA! You totally could've been in these pics! Hey if you don't mind, when you get your ignition kit in can you give me a holler? I was wondering if I could come by and watch you install it. I've been giving this some though for when my coils start going bad later down the road.

Indeed! Neither did I until I saw it on the lot. Thanks for the compliments guys!

Unfortunately, not. I can't drop it with the HKS cause it rubs already if I'm not careful. Can't imagine the clearance issues I'd have after a new set of springs. I was looking into a coil over solution sometime either next year or the one after that. I'm kind of on a budget and I'm thinking of getting the Mazdaspeed Body Kit but idk if I want to get that or just stick with the OEM Aero Kit. Kind of off topic, but thoughts?

Nice cars

My friend also had a set of custom retro headlights on his Si. The S2K projectors are sick!

The HFP lipkit does so much for this car also.
