ummm.. correct me if im wrong.. but isnt that a SRI and not a CAI?

forgot my opinion... I think you need to lose the headlights and bumper lights.. and the rims... and the side skirts look a bit out of place... but i like the drop

just my 2 cents.

looks decent, change up the lighting, and remove the tein sticker and it would look awesome with those rims

the fog light bulbs are h3, it's the head light bulbs that can be tricky to find. They are H4H.

Leave the badges off the car man.

Most people can't tell my car is GS-R unless they are in the know.
