Default Has anyone ever bought these parts?

I purchased a Kakimoto Fullmega Single Exhaust and a carbon fiber Garage Defend Stingray Front Canard Set 3 months back. Ordered them from Bulletproofautomotive.com. Still waiting for them to come in from Japan . I was wondering if anybody has ever bought these parts and installed them onto their S's. If so could I see some pictures? BTW I highly doubt if there's alot of you guys that has these parts since I was told from Bulletproof that these are really rare in the states. Any response would be grand !

I almost bought the Kakimoto exhaust until I heard it -- it is probably the loudest 60mm exhaust on the planet, right up there with the Veilside unit (63mm).

The front canards look just like the J's Racing front canards for the AP1 bumper to me, which I know I have seen, but I don't think I've ever seen the Garage Defend parts before.

Nice job, they are both very rare parts. Probably want to buy some rare JDM earplugs next

Yeah, there's an NFR owner with the sting ray front canards. It's pretty aggressive but not my cup of tea. I hope you like all the parts!!!

LOL thanks for the early warning of it being loud. Yeah the canards i just fell in love with it. If someone were to stand in front of it, it looks like it would take someones legs out . Plus i have my upper half headlights covered so it looks like it's falling asleep and when i get the part/s it'll be eating hah. my OEM lip is just chilln' on the floor collecting dust and awaiting for the parts.

That will look cool, I don't like the canards but on a black car I think you can pull it off well -- I've also seen a Silverstone car with those canards and a CF OEM lip, it looked cool b/c it looked like the lip and canards were connected, I think with your black car it may be able to pull that off.

Yeah I finally got my canards in about 2 days ago and installed them with the OEM lip, it looks sick. it took me damn near 4 hours cuz i had to charge my Dremel tool up. damn, and making the marks to drill 16 holes took for-ev-er!!! i had to take a nap cuz i was pissed off! all in all it looks so great on my berlina black car. gotten many stair downs from bystanders...now i'm just waiting for my Kakimoto exhaust to come in. n i'll try to post pictures up soon since my broke ass can't afford the s2ki membership yet lol.
