Yes, WOW ... looks fantastic. Especially with your cool wheels. Nice work.

Also, it looks like you don't have the "gap" problem either.

Looks good DJ. Both of those valances look more like the upcoming "facelifts" that are seen elsewhere here. Your front spoiler seems to be smiling (curved-up ends) as opposed to the scowel of the orignal.

Has your ground clearance changed? Be careful of curbs and parking space wheel stops.

BTW, I hope you don't mean "bit the dust," as that means to expire/fail/die!

Cheers,
Ray Hull

PS: FYI, we share a delivery date; Nice Trick or Treat presents.

Yes, that gap. It seems like all the M Kits come out that way ... installed at the VPC or body shop.
