Time for my KIT...a little teaser.

Finally got it painted and installed...

OEM front lip, RaceAppeal sides and rear.




and FYI for most people raceappeal will NOT be a cheap alternative, to make it fit correctly your shop will have to do a ton of sanding/filling/cutting to get this to fit properly. You are better off buying the OEM or WW kits.

I like it. It's something different but the two pieces in the back bumper need to go.

Looks great overall! I do agree that the rear center could be a little cleaner. It looks a little smashed upwards. But thanks for sharing man. Very OG!!! More PICS!!!!

I think if you shaved off that two rectangular things on the rear, it would look a lot cleaner.

This is a pretty low quality kit man, it's not going to be even like the OEM because that is factory, i don't think any aftermarket kit will be as even as that. I was looking more for originality, and i paid a lot to get it to fit at least decently.

Minus the two big rectangle things it would look beautiful, but I need to see some more pics before I make my final decision about it. The sides look good. I love your car.

Not bad, however that look is for cars that are pretty much on the ground, like LeMans, or something with RWD. Sure is different
