First the splitters... then the Versus kit...(pics)

here's the link to the quick nightime shots. it took me about 3 hours to make the mounts and put them on. I used the foam tape between the splitters and the front end, and used three bolts ot mount. they look sweet in real life, and once I get the side and rear skirts, I'll paint them silver and put a spacer in between the splitters and front end so that they match the sides in height. i also plan to fill the rear skirt vents from versus and finally, hook myself up with one of those titand custom grille. maybe a set of blacked out and cleared headlights too.
Splitters, please no flame, they are sweet in real life, trust me.

I also expected much better shots from the Photoshop Master. I guess Photoshop ain't photography though.

whoa there buddy, I resent that. It's just that I'm mad busy wirth work and I was trying out this automated feature in photoshop that makes web pages by itself. I shall redeem myself when the sun rises. I'm gonna buy the sides and rear of the versus kit from another member and paint the splitters silver. I can't wait...

FLame suit on....

I don't like the spiltters and I don't like the grill. * (The car is sweet)

*Why is it that people want to obscure the darkness of the engine bay with patterns? Seriously? "Darkness looks cool to me. Grills look GM to me.

Didn't mean to insult. I'm sure you can take better pics.

I agree. Once you paint them, I'm sure they'll look better than they do now. CF just looks weird on silver.

why in the world would you paint the CF silver?

if you were gonna do that you could of just made your own Fiberglass splitters to look however you want for $20 worth of material.

If you see the quality of the splitters, I'm sure you can't reproduce them for 20 dollars. I may even alter them slightly.
