exactly 
Yeah those are FEED skirts, did you get them from Shine? How is the fitment/quality?
I'm also curious about the FEED hood, did you get it from Shine? Fitment looks a bit off in the pics, whats it like in person?
Car looks tight man, real clean!

Not too many exterior changes, but I just added a bunch of bling under the hood.....polished/rebuilt alternator, ceramic coated water pump housing, new polished water pump, chromed fan relay bracket, chromed front lift hook, chromed alternator bracket. I have to admit the chromed stuff looks the best out of all of it by far 
I also replaced the turbo coolant feed and return lines, and sleeved them in 2000 degree resistant Thermo-tec sleeving. After barely 1 year and 4k miles, the hoses were in pretty poor shape (they were standard napa 3/8th coolant hose, and covered in 'only' 700 degree sleeving).
One thing I plan to do soon once I order more of the thermo sleeving is to cover my s/s wastegate lines in it. I read recently that the s/s lines can actually conduct all the heat to the rubber hose underneath, leading to it deteriorating and failing with no warning. Definitely not something I want to deal with when it comes to these lines.
Last lines I replaced were the heater hoses that run along the downpipe and under the compressor housing, again the standard coolant hose was in bad shape, these ones were actually oozing green stuff around the circumference of the hose ends. That's what prompted me to install all the blingin' parts.....I figured I was draining the coolant anyway, so why the hell not

A couple more pics of the Racing Brake kit, Spirit R seats, etc. You can see a brilliant black R1 in the background, we're in the middle of rebuilding the engine right now.......55k original miles on the chassis, we'll be selling it soon with a fresh warrantied motor, PM me if you're interested
