thats a really nice front end...i wanted it at one time, but its hard to find one to fit good...and it will cost u a arm and leg and then painting it but best of luck to ya..also what sides and rear do u want to run with it? it will be hard to get the sides and back to match right

It'll look better with an intercooler filling up the gap in the front.

The kit caught my eye, but I have no idea what would look good with it. Is the quality of GTP any good? I hear you have to shave and file and do all kinds of stuff just to get it to fit. My buddy has the bomex on his integra and it cracked where the wheel is. This kit is $350 and then $200+ shipping?! I think they're seriously jacking up the shipping cause it's $200+ anywhere. Dunno, probably won't get it.

I think it looks awesome, but it will probably sit like 3" off the ground with your stock suspension!

haha, some work is an understatement.
the bumper was all warped esp. the top.
it was warped downward and the sides were uneven.
the bodyman said it was due to pulling the bumper from the mold too early, and the fiberglass and resin had not fully cured, that and the bumpers are made in china and a couple of monthes in hot ass cargo boxes all equal....profits for vis and crappy bumpers for us.

well unless its a copy then it was from VIS...they are the supplier of that kit.....although if it is anyway...it would probably be much better.
i found a guy who has copies of the octane kit for most cars....and the quality is actually very good....better then vis for sure.

Good call, it does look a lot more like the GT2 than the R34 . . .

Edit: Wrong model, sorry. R32 -> R34.
