Looks like an ASM Dry Carbon IS11 front bumper+front fenders.
Yep, 1x1 weave dry carbon. Authentic MUGEN hood and hardtop(looks like CFRP one) too.

looks like an abandoned build. That carbon fiber is toast. Not worth 7000 anymore.

And on some of the preceding blog posts they've mentioned the previous version was less then ideal on gt wings(I believe they were referring to center mount/type-s wings) and they stiffened up the trunk to better support gt wings.

A lot of people were requesting the sticker sets, ASM has re made them. 200 have been made. https://autobacs-asm.com/original/go...SNO=ASM-G-0014


If anyone was wondering the sizing of the new ASM summer jacket, the JP L is similar to US L this time around. Jacket is made in China. It has 2 open hand pockets, roll up rain hood with strings, adjustable waste and elastic cuffs. https://autobacs-asm.com/original/go...SNO=ASM-G-0015

I never knew they stopped making sticker sets. I still have mine in my garage.

That ebay listing goes to show it doesn't matter if you have dope parts if your execution is shit.

Man 100% agree on the ebay listing. I cannot understand spending that kind of money on parts just to lets them get trashed. Disappointing.
