Got that same one locally... Stay tuned ... its not going to be anytime soon tho. Still collecting parts before I drop it off to a friend, install and paint. Bought it of a guy on craigslist who was selling CF hoods. He's from westminister. Ask him if he has another set.

Thats why they make up for shipping cost..... I've contacted that guy before too and will not sell for the same price and pick up locally. He would sell like $400 to pickup.

really? u think its ugly? hhhmmm... I think depends who installs it..... It definitely needs to be installed right with the right paint etc.... Hate to blew it but I bought that kit (not exactly the same front as the one on ebay) but the same everything else plus a few others added... stay tuned.. you guy will see if you guys are patient enough to wait... as i've said before its going to be a loooooooooong project... Collecting all the parts at the moment and will install everything at the same time.

Yup.. not doing any of those ferrari symbol.. I just wanted the whole kit because I thought it was simple and not too flashy. Attached was the original plan but too much work. I really wanted to do the widebody but the front and rear bumpers are way way too common.

photochopped by a friend

Looks ugly to you guys still? Daym u guys have a very small imagination LoL....

Anyways, got the fog lights already perfectly fit on those holes.. 3.5" diameter. I guess just stay tuned and see... I'll bring some extra tissue to wipe druel of you guys faces LoL....

Btw.. that car photochopped was jack's car (co-worker) I'm sure you guys have seen his car around... Only used his car to photochopped cos he has a collection of pictures my friend could use to put the front bumper along with the kit. I wasn't going to copy the hood/headlight etc... The plan was the whole ferrari kit with trd wide body front wide fenders and rear fenders... Again that was going to be way too much work so i'm going different direction.. Still with the whole ferrari kit all around..

Here's a sneak peak of the front with the fog lights. I'm trying to mount it and create a bracket at the back before leaving to yet another friend who does the bodywork/paintjob.

I thought you said it was ugly? you should try a different kit LoL....

Yeah, when I picked it up it came black primer.. What brand? Duraflex
