Ok i cant make a decision what to do exterior wise so these are my choices
Eclispe GSX front bumper w/Wings West sides and GTR rear pods...
I like this setup and there will be some modding to make this happen
Then Cuda 2 bumper
Then GT Tech lip
Im interested in doing this, Carbon Fiber wrapping my hatch to match other Carbon Fiber on the car...

I love the mitsu front,but new sides are needed,the ones on now are straight but the bottom is curved,and go with pods..I so wish I had a real cf hatch!,only 1 was made years ago I think.

yeah i already have the GTR pods sitting in the living room right now, i sold off my old ones i had couple years ago...
i to wish i had a real CF hatch, but the best bang for the buck for looks is CF Wrapped...
the sides i was looking at is Wings West, cuz they a pretty sweet and ABS is alwasy a plus seeing i will be using as daily driver for right now
Keep opinions coming

even though i just told you this haha, i think you should go with the cuda 2 kit, makes the car look totally different i think, even though its probably the most expensive out of your choices.

I like the GSX bumper, but to me, it doesn't look right on the Tib.
Maybe it just appears to be FrankenTib because I know that it doesn't belong there.

Have you considered a gk bumper (like Tanc but on a rd2) molded on rather than the eclipse front? Looks pretty similar and plus it's still hyundai smile.gif Also I love the shark wing, and i think it looks great on the rd. I have one right now for my rd2 I just need to find the time to get it on. I know shark wing isn't made for the rd2 but hey it still looks good on it.

thought about it but, i really dont care for it...looks real good on rd1 IMO
and im not a fan of a shark wing on a RD2, either Type r wing (which i have) or no spoiler

If anyone ever really really wants that true CF hatch, you know its always an option. I think for one guy it'll cost him 1000 bucks plus shipping, PLUS the OEM hatch needed to make the mold. Sucks, but those are the numbers.
