The plate to the side really disturbs the symmetrical look of the car to me.

be honest the license plate does stick out more than i would like, but i think thats how gomingo designed this thing

and it wasnt cheap either. I just got it because i recently got pulled over for no license plate, the cop was pretty cool and didnt even give me a warning. lol I dont wanna have any record of any sort if I am planning on going in the Police force

with all due respect for someone reason I think the center license plates look ugly! and grand ma like. but i can see where your coming from, I would like the plate a little more flushed to the bumper, but drilling holes in my bumper is the last thing i wanna do



- thank you guys for the kind words

Thanks bro.
i am actually quite impressed by it. The side skirts are just a tid short, but i guess that's a known thing. The front and rear bumpers are pretty close to OEM fitment and have not noticed anything about the paint. I think it all goes down to the prep, and I really trust the body shop who painted my car.



high resolution ones

A Newer LCM 2008 and up, Wiring harness/AHL module/ DS1 or DS2 forgot which one and bracket to hold the bulbs in I believe. Let me know on the prices you can get on PM and maybe we can go into together to Aleks for LCI conversion.
