thanks! i'm pretty happy with how it turned out the fitment of the front bumper is quite good so it may be the picture angle that exaggerates the gap between the hood and grill. as for the side skirts, it is a bit off towards the front (not sure if this is normal with umnitza kits or not). i think the shop did the best job they can, but i'll try and get them off to check them this weekend.

mirrors for almost $1000... i think i'll have to pass on them. unless i somehow find them at 90% off

Car looks great man, love the matte black roof!

I need the lip badly. What was your total paint and install cost on the lip/side skirts minus the hood repaint, if you don't mind me asking?

Looks good!

Rep skirts are a few mm short. There is nothing a shop can do about this.

the paint and install for the body kit was $1000. the paint is nice and thick with a smooth glossy clear-coat with no orange-peel they do a lot of work for the MB dealership across the street and have worked on a Volvo I had previously, so I knew they were going to do a great job.

just added an acs-style roof spoiler.. had to stretch the vinyl a bit as it needed just a bit more than 4' so the weave is not a perfect match to the roof. fortunately, you can't really tell unless you stare at it

Did they take the brake air ducts off your original bumper and put them on your Umnitza bumper during installation?
