Looks good. Is it just me or is the front of your car sitting a little higher than the rear?

no i did the job myself. i probably could have done it faster but the kit came with no directions so i took the f/r bumpers off brought them in my house and did it step by step off the forums d.i.y section

Looks great and this kit takes awhile to install. The front alone took me like 2 hours adding extra tape where needed and making it perfect

There are 2 A-Spec body kits

04-06 base
07-08 base
07-08 Type s

04-06 which is the one he install does not fit the 07.
