Outside of the forged cf, I actually like it. Would be nice to know what those things above the fender are though. They look like funky air ducts
My issues with this kit:

1). Forged carbon seems purely just to be different
2). The front "fangs" don't flow with the body lines
3). The front fender add-ons look like an after thought
4). The kit looking like an Ebay special, especially the wing. How you give us the HRC DE5 and the Modulo/Honda Access carbon wing but this is what they settle on for the FL5 HRC wing?

I do like the side skirts, hopefully they're available in regular 2x2 carbon

What the HRC concept parts look like that was debuted at TAS without the wrap covering it up.

I kinda like the front bumper. It looks like the big scoop around the grill may help get extra air to the intercooler. Looks better than the Spoon front bumper, IMO.

Not a fan of most of the other parts, though... especially the front fender flares.
Those just have me thinking...
"What the Hell is even that?!?"​

I wonder if / when I can just buy that front bumper, and... How much $$$$ ???

Otherwise, I'll just keep looking at front lip spoiler options.
So far, Noblesse is my #1.

Anyone running this swan neck wing?

I'm thinking of running this instead of the crazy expensive spoon wing. Curious how anyone's experience has been.
It looks to me like the eBay clone versions, probably with better fitment. Plus, you don’t have to deal with tariffs, cross your fingers for a reputable seller, or play the waiting game hoping your part eventually gets shipped by the JDM and their tax. I’ve bookmarked it now!

These chinese copies have gotten better over the years when it comes to fitment, and they use the original Spoon wing as the basis for their mold so apart from the branding, material construction and some minor details. It will look and behave like the OEM Spoon part. TBH you might even be able to find it cheaper through a reputable manufacturer on Alibaba.

Would buy the viral Amazon lip in a heartbeat if it went straight across on the front without indentations.
