OEM bumper and chin spoiler with a CF hood if you are not using any sideskirts. The Mugen front bumper alone will make it look noseheavy.

Very nice R. Do you have any other pics to post. As many as you could would be appreciate. It would be nice to get as many angles of the car as possible.

Thanks,
Jon

Even though I had JDM conversion with Mugen bumper I think if I had to do it over again I'd go OEM bumper or C-Westini bumper personally. Cheaper too. Mugen bumper is excellent quality though.

Anymore pics of PY JDM converted R's? All pics welcome. Preferably without a CF hood or lip though... Im not a big fan of those.

Thanks,
Jon

The unveiling will be right before nopi on the ride down to atlanta, until then she will stay in the garage

Speaking of nopi. Is ITRCA-NC meeting in Charlotte? What hotel room is everyone staying at? I need to know so i can make plans.

Not an R, but does it have to be? You get the idea, no?

That is a very sick ITR. Damn. If I could afford it, my GS-R would look like that...with the execption of the color. I think I'd have to get the carbon fiber hood though. Nice car!

Chris,

Thats just the thing... I don't want to jump into this too fast. I could get the complete conversion on my car painted/installed for just over $1000. Dont ask how...but there are so many other things I want to get. I need to ask myself, am I getting this because it is such a good deal, or because I really want it. I mean, if I had to spend as much as others do on it, FORGET IT... but this situation makes me stop and think about it...

Jon

Dude use that 1,000 bucks to make your **** faster. Why is everyone in such a rush to make their R look like an Accord or Nissan 240SX?
