Thanx for all the comments. Just so you know im just debuting the bumper for a company I didnt pick it out. However it is a very nice bumper and very good quality I didnt have an emblem or paint the mesh because thats how it came and I wanted to show you guys how it comes.

+4. I thought it was a photoshopped mazda front bumper. It would a lot better with the grills painted black though.

Looks good from the side, flows with the rest of the kit. Not too sure about the front view, a bit too much for my taste.

The roof is not an overlay, its the Asuka double hump cap (unless by "overlay", which i would think mean dynoc, you mean what it is), and when did having any carbon fiber on the car = rice?

Keep the hood and roof as is, but black out the grille with a thicker plastic mesh to hide the internals better. Not a total fan of the bumper, but it might look alot better with the above mentioned changes.

Rest of car is win. clean stance, wheels, sides/rear, hood, roof, and Brides i see, any pics of interior?

Is it and overlay or did he cut the factory roof out and install a carbon roof. One version is straight rice (stick-on CF is pointless) and the other way to do it is proper.

Its an overlay and how is that straight rice. Its real CF. That piece happens to be on high demand and very expensive. Lets see some pics of your car and how wonderful it looks.

No...has anybody ever cut out the roof for a cap? I didnt know if you had mistaken it for an 'overlay' (which i usually see as a Dynoc or whatever stick on cover) and didnt see humps or if by 'overlay' you meant same as 'cap'.

I usually refer to hard carbon/frp covers as 'caps' and cheap vinyl or Dynoc covers as 'overlays'. Like as in black taillight 'overlays'. I wouldnt put the two in same category but i guess in retrospect they are both technically 'overlays'.

Either way, its a dress up mod, non-functional, but that doesnt mean its 'rice'. The piece aint that cheap, either. Different strokes, though. I understand your a function>form guy and everything, but "I dont like it", and "its rice" are two totally different statements.

Its a stupid stick on piece, who cares if its expensive, lots of crap is expensive. But the fact remains that its a stick on piece and just as ricy as http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CARBO...Q5fAccessories now if it was a roof replacement , where you cut the factory sheetmetal roof off and replace it (shedding 40 pounds ) it would not be straight rice. Pics of my car are all around, all you have yo do is search.

Yes it happens all the time. Just not very often on cars without a roll cage.
