Filters loud, zaust is quite, tips far too big, will try and identify what sort of zaust it is tomorrow when i pop it on the works ramp.
If its nothing fancy i'll get local custom place to put a smaller suitable tip on it and replace the splitter.

Yes, thats a facelift. Pre-face didn't have the projector headlights, or indicators on the wing mirrors. Different front bumpers also. Face-lift has the 2 round holes in them.
Looks pretty good, but need better pictures. As standard they look pretty boring in silver though.

Also the centres of the front seats and door cards are red opposed to grey.

Been studying your Honda's Nik? But aye, you're correct that's definitely a face lift.

Most of the exhausts ARE far too big mate It's JDM apparently If you want a small, cracking sounding exhaust; Get a Spoon N1. Or for much less moolah, get an N1 rep. They are sold over on EK9.org Love the rasp of mine! Can't wait to get it back

Love EP3's, exhaust wise though i like standard backbox and centre with a manifold and a bigger B pipe. Standard airbox with airbox mods and an ECU job jobbed.
Springs and some 2500's, winnning!

Aye, Scotts had 2, so had to read up on them 
Pre-face EP3's look crap compared to facelifts.
