WOW!!! Everything looks awesome! I'm glad Mr. Jr dropped it to 1100. I will let my supplier know about the rear bumper. I'm sorry about that. Other than that And THANK YOU for the great review

Again Joe, being extra extra picky, but its just not as nice as the front. I would say the front is better than oem and the rear is just close to perfect. For the money it is worth it for your setup, but with the hassle my body shop gave me perfect fitment and no lines/waves at all would have been easier. No worries though 99/1000 wouldn't notice it. It wont even show up on photos

No problem. I'm here at my body shop installing the full kit. We are doing the rear right now and I'll let you know how it goes. We usually don't have issues with it, but I'll post some pics in the vendor thread

Joe - Feel free to give people my contact info if they have questions. Also, you can use my pics...just delete my plate info.

As for the dents - they still didnt get them all but $250 was my limit. They got all the ones that are noticeable and they all came out with just glue pulls. the headliner did not have to come off etc...so it wasn't that bad. Again not perfect, but this isnt a show car just a nicer than average 5 that I drive 750 miles per week.

BTW - for anyone looking to get an acs style spoiler or rds this picture should tell you if you want to do it or not. This is the part that is not quite perfect...if you like this, then get it, if you are unsure, don't.

Congrats!! Sorry to hear about al the trouble with the shop, but in the end it was well worth it...

I thing a 30 mm drop would do the job ...with the 19's you should be fine, even on bumpy roads...the rest of the car looks awesome...enjoy her!!
