I like it... Very clean engine and I love the front bumper and side skirts . Could've made a lil better decision on the rear bumper and wheels but hey, it's different and I'd give it a 9.5/10.

Only thing I hate about that SI model are the seats, they're so wack with those odd linings on the seats... Get a Type-R shift ****

with a different muffler and a different set of wheels, it would look a whole lot better to me.

the cwest kit looks awesome tho.

Well it is different than the "normal" H-T EM1. I just don't like shaved sides on these cars and mirrors are well, not to my liking. But otherwise it looks good. If you're happy w/ it all the power to you.

Its clean, the wheel choice is ***. You've got more a show ride so you need somehting big and not so,,,,,,,,,,,, so,,,,,,, plane looking

and fyi and you probably know, Although many people think a HUGE FMIC is gonan be so chill and kick *** and work so well. You should match the size of your fmic to what your gonna be runing in terms of boost and pressure as if your set up is smaller (ie: stock internals = very small) your gonna regret it later when you get it tuned on a dyno and see how your power curve is compaired to if you had a proper size fmic!

bigger isnt always better

Your car looks Ok love the C-west just need sum different wheels like some FAT Volk wheels to make it look a little better -(That was my opinion)-

-EDIT- And if you can add a M3 Trunk Lip ( Like this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1 )
