Who's getting the RonJon 2nd gen aero kit?

I dunno if this is allowed to have its own thread or if I have to post in the groupbuy thread... but question:

Just wondering who's put down a deposit or plan to buy the aero kit? What color car do you have and what other visually apparent mods do you have?

<-- had my deposit in since last february

Visually; Comptech drop, 18" Silver Inspyres, Cleared/Painted SSM headlights, Upper and Lower RonJon grill, debadge and tint. PLus I will be getting a BBK but thats parts looks, part performance.

Granted I plan on changing the whole look of the car this summer once the kit comes in.

What do you mean by this? Do you mean that the kit changes the look of the whole car? Or do you mean you're going to change up even more w/ additional mods when the kit comes on?

Pretty much, although I don't know if I'll be able to afford new wheels and paint, but well see. I plan on swapping the headlights and tails to 03s, 03 mirrors, and taking off the RonJon grill and making a Mugen style one.

I've loved Rondy's work since the beginning... so I will continue to support his designs. I may swap out my Servos for some forged RJ's....

right now my 03 silver CL looks stock besides tints and debadged, but I hope to have the kit on by April/May. Im saving $ to fix a scrape and fill in the license plate hole on the front bumper, buy the M5 lip and RonJon front grille. I want to do everything at the same time (plus install my eibach pro-kit thats sitting in my closet). Im going for a nice clean look.

I got 2 questions-
Does RonJon still sell front grilles? I havent contacted them yet but they do not show them on their website. and is it the years 99-03 bmw lip that fits our cars?

He stopped selling them, but I will be selling mine sometime soon. I actually have both the upper and the lower (he only made one lower and that was for me )

As for the lip spoiler, the M5 spoiler looks best. Not sure the yearss, something like 2000-2004 I think was the years for the E39 M5. You can find them here http://www.c-c-c.net/CustomCarCreati...Page/index.htm

If I can get a winter beater, I'd love to buy a kit in the future.

..

Provided I get new rims, all the dings popped out, and both bumpers painted.
