it's absolutely not a Seibon anything, nor is it the VIS

looks like INGS but the vents are smaller than I remember (or it could be the angle of the photo)

Ah, yeah, looks like the Varis (or a replica):



Thanks, guys. Was thinking about this in FG (since I'd just paint it, anyway). I like the Vis GTC design, though; does it come in FG?

No idea what the deal is with the clips from fender to bumper; should have asked the guy; this was at the HB meet. His plate bracket looked to be one of those that swivelled the plate back in the wind.

LOL, I've ALWAYS got the itch; just not always the ability to scratch it.

Yeah, I like the Asuka, but I think it goes better with a more agressive car; mine is a bit more subtle. Plus, I'd paint it and, if anything, only keep the vents CF and I don't think the Asuka would look that great painted like that.

They have Varis replicas on Ebay in fiberglass pretty cheap (~$200). Dunno, we'll see; still window shopping at this point.

I guess sometimes you just gotta get that bumper off in a hurry!
