Finished this one today:
SAS Sideskirts, added CF lip to front bumper, rear lights from Kei Office Silvia, scratchbuilt intercooler, Kranze LXZ rims with SAS Advan tyres. Paint is Honda Imola Orange. First 4 pics have intercooler & rear number plate missing as I was trying to get some pics while the sun was shining :iceslolan .

Willmo - the SAS tyres are very nice and although designed for 18" rims they'll stretch to 19's no problem.
Nabil - to get the ride height down I didn't use the springs.
Thanks for the comments guys

Looks real nice Andy. I am doing that one right now. Did you have any fit problems with the front end? Just wondering

Charlie,
I don't remember any real fitment problems - I didn't follow the instructions & glued the front bumper on before spraying - the only problem with doing it that way is that you have to fiddle the light unit in afterwards but it's "do-able".
Thanks

Andy, Very sick build.
I have a few questions if its ok?
I read the thread and cannot find out exactly what that front bumper is from?
The rear bumper, is that parts from another bumper grafted and molded into the stock S15 bumper?
Were you looking for more of a chrome S15 headlight? looks kinda cool, but you should consider outlining edge of the clear lense with black IMO, same with rear.
sickness Andy, seriously.

The front bumper is from the aero version of the kit - I removed the central bar and opened out the grille between the headlights with a file. I also added a small lip to the bottom of the bumper with plastic sheet to bring it down to the same level as the side skirts. The rear bumper is also from the Aero version of the kit. As regards the headlights I left them chrome so that they'd match the chrome rear lights (from the Kei Office kit). I just thought it'd look a bit odd otherwise.
Thanks for the comments.
