Full MTech Kit purchased from Umnitza and the paint job was by Beaver Customs out here in Tempe, AZ.
Details:
- MTech Replica Kit
- Black Kidney Grills
- Projector Foglights w/ 5000K HID Bulbs
Overall I am very happy with the kit. The sideskirts and rear bumper fit without any modifications. However, the front
bumper required trimming part of the bumper where it gets attached to clips that are under the headlight. Also I needed
to trim part of the foam that was on the support beam.
Other than that, this kit looks sick and I get lots of compliments from it! I parked next to an OEM MTech kit and it looks
identical (other than mine not having PDC). The paint matches the car perfectly thanks to Beaver Customs! If anyone
in AZ wants my body shop's number, let me know.

The wheels are Concept One RS-8 20" wrapped in Nitto NT555 tires. Thanks Need4Speed in CA!
The angel eyes are LED by High Performance Bulbs. I will be writing another thread on the review on it.
Let me know what you guys think!

I like it, looks very nice! The bumpers are a bit whiter than the rest of the car but this is pretty common and it's not really noticeable and the same on my car with Alpine White. There are a few paints that match perfect but they are VERY expensive and shops just don't use them unless you specify and are willing to pay extra! Any thoughts about painting your roof black?
How did you get your fogs to shine with your angel eyes only?

Thanks for the compliment guys and I wanted to thank everyone who helped me pick out a kit. I wouldn't have decided unless I can across this board and took a look at all the member rides
Thanks TonyB for explaining about fitting the front bumper! Yeah it is a little whiter but definitely hard to tell in person.
It should already be an option on your car... it's the 3rd setting on the light swtich knob (left of the setting wheel below the vent).
