hahah. frank.. i wanted the j's type s... but after i talked to aj racing and got the dimensions of the bumper... and the sides.... there's no way i can keep the stance i have right now on my car and be able to pull that kit off.. hehehe... i went out and measured it.. and the lip of the j's type S would litterally be on the ground with my current setup.. lol

and i'm going with 17 inch wheels...

i'm really thinking about the amuse tho...

amuse r1 = $1082
mugen = $1710

and i've been seeing a lot of mugen ss poping up everywhere..

mugen SS is everywhere now...

amuse looks too much like my current 04 setup...this is why im going j's...only other setup i was thinking about was the wbersports, or shaving the the 04 front and getting an 04 mugen lip...im just gonna go j's...worse comes to worse i can sell it...

The Amuse bumper is not a perfect fit, but is good. The good part about that is the bumper is a FRP construction, so it is easy to fit and modify to fit your car.

One of my good friends is a painter and helped me out with fitting it. We added about 1/8" to 1/4" underneath the inner coner of the headlights. Overall, it was not much and it would still look good without it, but it fits perfect after the modification. I do not think that Sam had to mod his at all. So, I guess he got the pick of the litter.
