Re: just took couple snaps of the EL front EK (THE JDMCHOP)

imo, EL fronts belong on 4drs. It just looks kinda weird on your hatch. Other than that everything else looks good

I don't really care for the EL front ends on EK hatches, but hey, what's important is that you do.

Not a fan of el fronts on ek's but to each his own.

Id hate to see a small rock/pebble get inside your motor with that intake

for being unique.

The only thing that i think is weird about those front ends is the bumper lights, they need to be moved towards the outside of the car. Would make the front end look wider.
