Just a lip looks dumb imo. The exceed CW car looks really good. They picked the right rims to go on with the rest.

I don't know what it is but it just doesn't look good. Especially when its next to their new widebody S2K, which they absolutely nailed.
It’s not that bad honestly, but it’s not crazy good in regard to aesthetics. I mean it’s the first full aftermarket bumper in the wild. Plus I’m sure just like the FK8, it’s possible for Varis to make second kit or a wide body design in the future.

But I agree with the S2k. The fact that It’s still getting appreciation after over 20+ years, it’s proof that the car is legendary and such an icon.

that bump looks horrible and so does that red car above with the over fenders.

Real carbon roof though, I like that (but in gloss). I would never do it though, its quite the procedure

Having watched Ben Thorn from gears and gasoline transplant an OEM CF roof onto his STI, nope. Not gonna go to that extent. Not worth the weight savings nor the looks.

Varis teased their new bumper ahead of TAS 2025, what do y’all think? 🤔

I'm sure it's going to be effective at improving cooling and aero performance, but boy this thing looks like a front bumper from Need For Speed Underground 2 that you skip over every chance you get lol.

Certainly not their finest work.

Seeker also debuted some Aero pieces and the new CE28 SL N-Plus at Tokyo Auto Salon. I already have their tailgate lip on my car.

Rear wing looks right up my alley.
