They really do have some nice stuff and they make like every part emaginable.
Door inserts for and ek. They didnt have pics for egs but they have them listed.



The weave looks a little wavy but if you have gutted doors this looks like the way to go.

Is there a point to any of this stuff? I've heard the hoods are pretty heavy. The door panels just look like bling to me. No money smart weight savings. The duckbill w/light is cool since its actually legal, but the stock spoiler probably weighs just the same.

Do you really think anyone bought a CF spoiler to reduce weight?

Maybe their stuff is good for Hondas and such, but christ they need to work on their fitment for Subarus. I bought 2 lip from them for my Subaru.. The first one i had to almost force on and 2 days later it cracked. I got a replacement from them, and again was going to have to force it on. It seems their first batch from a mold is awesome, but just deteriorates from there ( took my friends lip from him and am now using it on my Impreza, First batch, great fit)... Oh and if you don't know Seibon is basically AFS Motorsports.....

so you have to be a ricer to have CF on your car??? interesting, i mean... geez, god forbid the **** looks good as accents on a black car. that would just be awful. and just a side note, i'm sure the whole rear hatch assy. does shave a bit off the rear.

my $.02

I too remember Tom saying Seibon cf hoods are heavier than stock.

yeah, cause anyone that modifies their car to look better is just a big ******* ricer. and downforce doesnt do ****, who needs to keep their rear tires planted on the ground through a turn? traction is bullshit.

I never said it doesn't help them on the track. I said they are ricers or racers more or less. I don't think most of the people that are track ***** with this type of spoiler get to high enough speeds in a corner to need the downforce. Suspension and tires should be enough.
