edit. unless you do body work dont attempt to put it on. its not "bolt on to stock holes" thing. most have to be cut and ****.

it actually turned out to be straight at the end of the side skirts and the bumper... and when I imagined it in black... I was SOLD!

haha, with the price... yes, I didnt have time to ask... it was a last-in-stock item at a warehouse that was in the same city I live in, and no one else bid on it, so I got it for a steal! I just happened to be looking for one at the same time too :p

It's really nice... I like it but CUT THE MIDDLE PART OFF THE REAR. It'll look sick as fudge.

Take the bottom of the rear out. Put in a diffuser. That would look nice.

That looks great...very clean. I don't like the rear bumper either...perhaps you could fill it in and add a diffuser.

I dont suppose its possible that I can install this kit myself... so what steps should I take to prep it? or should I even dare do that since someone is going to have to properly fit it right?

Take it to a body shop. I get too many hacked up pieces of **** from kids with no brains to recommend that you do anything else.

If you're going to do anything, take off your old bumpers and just set these in lace to get a rough idea of how far out they are. Then take it to a body shop.

EDIT: I like it BTW. Better then the GP Sports everyone and they're mother has. And don't listen to the people who hate it. You like it and thats all that matters.

haha, thanks a lot! yea, I think I'll use my time that I could spend trying to do a hack job on working to make money to pay a professional to do it.

I actually LOVE it, and think it's gonna look frickin sweet on my fc... even if the rest of the world lined up to tell me its ugly... I'd think the world is mad, and ppl have bad taste :p haha

My goal with this car is to have a beautiful modern looking daily driver that I can take out on spirited drives. so my focus will be mainly on reliability and cosmetics, exterior and interior... just picked up a kenwood DVD NAV system, should help in finding some nice roads for spirited driving come next summer! God willing!


Which reminds me, the previous owner looks to have taken a key to the whole thing when it died on him/her... the key marks are everywhere, but not deep enough to go through the primer... whats the best way to get rid of them?
