The entire front end (bumper, grill, hood, some fender) needs it. I may tailgate just a bit on the highway...

Hmmm....

The body work really wasn't all that hard, and I had a ton of dents...but it was very time consuming. The paint..eh I took it to a friend, all I had to do was help prep it. Best $200 I have ever spent! Although I wanted to do all dark grey...my wife wanted the two tone

Great numbers! What's in the power/drive train?

While I'm not 100% sold on that (Sage?) green, I do love two-tone!

First post, Whoop Whoop

Dont know exactly everything that is done to it since info on Tommy Kaira Gf8's is scarce. But this so far is what I have found out.

Closed deck EJ20G
Tommy Kaira 2.2L Forged Stroker Kit
Under drive pulleys
ARC Intercooler
ARC Air Box
Zero Sports Splitter and Rad cover
Type RA transmission
Higher Spring rate Coils, pretty sure the valving is adjusted too

All i found out from emailing Tommy Kaira was a spec of 350 awhp and 325 awtq

Before Import
