I know the feeling,,, I was so glad to get mine on,,, it took a few days due to how busy I was. I just put a little bit of time each day.

Looks good man! Enjoy it!

^^ Fits over the bottom portion of the bumper. You have 4 holes to drill on the back, and then double sided tape that biatch.

Unless you goin with TL-S lip then you gonna have a hack job.

Pictures look great, Agree with above that you need the aspec side skirts. But nice nice!!

Thanks guys for all the comments, as for the install cost, that was 0 bc i did it myself, much more satisfaction if you do it yourself, all it tookwas a couple hours and a couple Coors Lights, and for the wheels they are TSW Laguna's 19"s.

Wow! Looks awesome.

I'm thinking of adding the A-spec body kit, one piece at a time, for financial reasons. I own an 05' NBP 6MT. I'm thinking of doing the front first, then the rear, then the sides. Mine has the factory mudguards installed behind the wheels. Will I have to take these off to install the rear? Sides? How much protection will I be losing without these guards? I do a ton of highway miles!

It's not much of a difference,,, but there is a bit of an extruded difference. For me, it was worth it.

Its flexible plastic. Most likely a TPO or some type of Urethane. Its good material for a lip kit.
