Funny... I always wondered what the newer FG grills would look like on our cars. Looks good. If I had to guess I would say its a FG knock off. Where did you get it? Or did it come with the bump?

it's a one piece bumper it came with the grill! but no worries hopefully i will upgrade to the mugen grill. im also planing on changing wheels but i asked in a thread before if some has pics of their ep with 5Zigen Fn01R-c so if you know someone please let me know cuz i really want to see the ep with those wheels! thanks!

No rocks on the road... i was planning on driving to the us for a meet, chuck from showstoppers knows another ep owner from el salvador PEDRO, our ep's are exactly the same the only difference is that he has the cf mugen wing. so we were planning on driving for a great meet once you come up with one! but el salvador is nice it's a shame that our crime rates are so high :(

I know, and i dont like it :( but the M replica grill from showstoppers wont fit (I guess). so either i save up for my grill or buy showstoppers and work some magic :P which is probably the way i'll go.

Not to downplay your ride at all, but I'm sure that in asking for more pictures of the widebody EP, I'm asking on many members' behalf. It's rare that our car pulls it of tastefully.

It definitely helps, but, to be honest, I'm still anxious to see some high-res (like a dSLR shot from 6" away with a fisheye lens). http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz228/Tommy_Castroreale/Emotes/Small%20Emotes/shy.gif

NGS

02-24-2011, 12:52 PM

What i mean with the holes is that the guy that worked the fiberglass made the mugen lip out of a picture, all from scratch and that really impressed me! its a whole bumper no lip attached is not mounted, about the wide body the gray ep is not my ride, so im not 100% sure as how he did it, he only told me it was custom made by a guy who worked fiberglass IMO it looks OK, im not so much of a wide body fan! and the shots of my car lol its going to be a while since she is in the shop for another month or so!
