Looks good but seem like it would be a lot of work for something so small

Looks like it'll be tight. Really smooths out the lines of the car . . .

Looks good, but you might as well take care of the license plate area on the front bumper while your're at it.

I like it better the way it is... it completes the grill
If you had an RS grill or something then it might look better without it

Umm, it looks ok, but no one would really notice it. Plus that is the stock bumper , the tsunami is a hell of alot different, even if u just got the tsunami lip and not the bumper.

That looks really good. I dont like that little bonnet thing either. I hate the front license plate thing too. I plan on getting the oem kit, so i might just have the plate shaved off and repainted.
