Hmm, will you have to make any modifications to make the new IC fit?

Also, do you work at the Raritan Bakery?

Here's a newbie question: What does the thinner/thicker silver parts mean/do? Is it better to have more thin ones? I see almost all DSM with the thick style fmic but no other cars really..

On another note the new fmic looks fierce!

Damnit, then. There is a turbo R near there which looks EXACTLY like yours. I always see it parked outside when I go to my uncle's shop in the Fords.

you planning on enlarging the bumper opening to expose the full height of that thing? If so then If not, then it's probably not necessary to have it that tall.
