thanks, yeah the front doesnt fit good at all. the stupid paint shop couldnt fit it so when i take the sideskirts in for paint at a different shop im gonna have them mold the front and sides.

the reason i had to get the front is my old one got really messedu p in my fender bender and i made the mistake of taking it to the wrong paint shop.

the color is gun metal gray metallic, i just chose it from a few color samples they had, im actually going to repaint the whole car early next year when i can afford a wide body. but for now this is how the car will look =)

it was racing beat, i took it off cause the car was so damn loud and i didnt want a cop to pick me out of a crowd from far away cause of the size of the wing. I was plannin on repainting the car in the next 6 months a much darker gray too.

I've been wanting to rid myself of my wing forever. Did you REALLY use spray paint on your car? It looks too damn good to be true.

yes i made sure to spray paint them before i put them on the car. I was alittle mad cause i had 2 cans of paint, 1 which matched my paint almost perfectly and the other was darker. I ran out of the one that matched the car perfectly, so the caps are a little darker then the rest of the paint. I think it still looks acceptable tho, compared to empty holes.

Very nice... I like it a lot. Much better without the wing.

Although, how did you run out of spray paint when all you had to do is paint the plugs? Those plugs aren't that big that would require you even 1/4 of one can... ???

I meant spray paint on the body. The paint underneath the feet of my wing is ruined.
