Man, I love everything about that kit, minus the rear bumper.

I bet I can guess what you were doing, slumming around the TK site

i agree completely!

you caught me...what can I say, Im hung over, bored and looking to spend some money on the G.

i should mention that i dont plan on doing any other CF on the car, and the diffuser thats coming to me is going to be painted a titantium/black color.

i wish i knew someone in Japan...

I'm not a huge fan of CF, but I do like the look of the CF mirror covers.. I've actually contemplated doing them myself.

yeah, a sponsor on myg37 can wrap the covers for a lot cheap than the TK ones...

btw, do you just have K&N drop ins or the actually intake kit?

I have the actual K&N Typhoon intake with custom made heat shields, but I may be getting the new Takeda intake soon.
