Are your trying to be a type S boy? JK. i like the kit, did install it yourself or have the place where you bought it from install it? how much did you get it for? im planning on getting the front lip. I got the Type S. I was wondering what the difference was on the side skirts and rear. Im having a hard time finding the difference.

Thanks guys! It is good to hear that, I don't remember how much time I spent trying to decide between coilovers and springs. I know, most of the people like coils, but too much $$$ for me! And here in PR, every time I ask about installation of coilovers, they said "that's just for racing, too stiff for daily driving, etc", so I keep it simple and affordable.

Now, decide between Gunmetal and S silver, damn!!
