Thank ya I strongly suggest that you go for it! With how few exterior options FXTs have it goes a long way to making it look a lot more aggressive.

Haha, loving the basket

Couple questions. Is your lip a genuine importology or one of the replicas they sell on eBay? And have you been happy with your Drags? Been pondering bronze some 17" DR-31s or bronze Rota DPTs.

That one is a real one, but I'm not positive that you can get them anymore. I've heard the Ebay ones are hit or miss, the one I've seen in person went on well with a bit of heatgun work. Honestly I have been, my suspension budget was really low at the time so I went with reps, but I've been saving since for something a bit bigger and nicer for this summer. I don't have any complaints about the drags tho!

Yeah, they no longer sell them, so the only way to get ahold of one is used. I might just try my luck with an eBay one unless I get lucky and find one in the For Sale Section.

I need some new tires, and want to go to 17" and 245 wide, so I might just pick up some drags since they're so cheap and get some genuine wheels later down the road. Gotta save money for the vf48

Thanks Art. I'll post some of mine later to keep this thread on track

Yeah that was kind of my mentality, I normally don't like buying rep. stuff and would love to run the real thing, but tuition and mortgage collectors are this close to lead-piping my ankles Damn, that's looking super clean! Even just a wheel/coil setup will do wonders.

Thanks! I'm running KYB AGX's on Prodrive Red STI Springs right now. Probably do coilovers in the future after I get the rest of my suspension and go fast bits dialed in.

Thanks. In this picture I am on D2 coilovers but I have since taken them off and am on 06 STI takeoffs. It sits a little bit higher now but the D2's were painful to ride on. I should soon be picking up a set of BCBR or something similar. The front lip is the Ebay version, fit isn't perfect but it will do until I can snag a JDM front end.

Black and gold is always a good combo. Getting ready to throw some BBS goldies on mine shortly. I was going to buy an ebay lip, but now they're all sold out .

Get it while it's cheap! Thanks, here's a few quick pictures I just snapped off, I'll get some better ones later on if one of my friends with a decent camera drops by.
