Version Select body kit and eyeline for xB. PICS

At first glance, this is a Fabulous kit, though it does have some minor differences. The most notable is that it is higher for U.S. roads. This one is a "prototype" that had a cutout in the bumper for the license plate on the JDM smoothback. I cut it off, patched it, and filled it smooth. The kits for the non-smoothback U.S. version should be here very soon so you won't have to do that. I had to flip the front bumper support upside down and bolt it on using just the 2 top bolts. This raised the support up higher, which I think would work better in an accident since the car is lower. Fitment of this kit was excellent, requiring very little trimming. The eyeline was designed for the JDM headlight, so it needs to be trimmed up a bit to clear the turn signal on U.S. cars. I trimmed off even more to fit my needs. The finish is the stock polar white base with a ghost blue flake fade from the bottom up to kinda simulate the iceberg look.

Lemme know what you think!

very clean. I'm sure you'll be getting the fogs to go with it. Nice job. I really like the wheels as well. Thumbs up!

Springs are DF210's.
I'm not lowering it anymore, it's my daily.
You can order the kit from here..

They should have the correct rear bumpers in on the next shipment, I believe.
