RS500 bumper and Wing (fiberglass). Car sits on Enkei 16 right now for setup. Road use will see Compomotive MO wheels (8x17) with Kumho or Michelin 235s. It will have custom fender liners to make these fit.

I have to get some dyno time to optimize the fuel and timing values via the EEC Tuner soon with kineticmotorsport.com's help.

It's almost finished!
