I haven't read the instructions yet but do the stock type-S sideskirts come off in order to install the A-spec skirts so you actually have the stock ones off the car and ready to sell? I thought it all connects over top of everything.

Glad you guys all seem happy with your purchase. I've been on the fence with this aesthetic upgrade mainly because it's a decent chunk of change and I had a very steep driveway. Well I've recently moved to a house with a flat driveway and I just got my tax return so my excuses are no more. However it seems I have missed the group buy and was wondering what my options were. Thanks for the feedback.

received mine today and it was wrapped up very good and the box was actually in mint condition compared to most who say it was all busted up. Im in Canada too, so here are the pics of the box when it arrived.

The lowest we can do is $715 shipped and that is at 20+ people.

Well right now its just regular price of $760 shipped which is still a great deal. I may run another GB next month.

My new front under spoiler should be arriving at my door any minute now! Then I just gotta send the damaged one they sent me right back. So sick of Fed-Ex.

How much do you guys think it would cost to have the dealership install the lip kit?

Received my kit today also. Was boxed just like the above box. Came with hardware and even instructions.

Ordered it on Wednesday and received it today. 3 days. If I didn't spend the day installing my coilovers, I would've put it on.

Yeah, they charge like $350. If you are around NJ I can install it for you at a small fee.

If you ask someone in the regional section someone may help you for free/cheap/beer/food..something.

Got my box in the mail the other day in perfect condition. After seeing the box I cannot believe the price I got it for. Shipping that monster must have cost a fortune in and of itself.

For those of you doing the install yourself (which I highly recommend, its not that hard and you will appreciate it much more) the only word of advice I will give is that you can't be afraid to pull really hard on some of those pieces. Dont be afraid of breaking things and your install will go much more smoothly.

I have only been able to install the sides so far but they fit and matched my paint perfectly. I'll post pics up when I finish.

Thanks again Ack.

No, its at regular price of $760 shipped. A group buy may happen again but if it does, it won't be for another two months or so.

I'm kind of sad I didn't get one of those 'house' boxes, but I think I'll live

Box was in rough shape (due to FedEx), but all the pieces were in great condition and were wrapped really well. Installed the kit this past weekend and here are the before and after pics:









Somehow adding the lip kit made my car cleaner

Nice. BTW I am selling those rims that he has on his car. They are $800 plus $100 shipping and pay pal fees. Local pick up would just be $900 cash and skip the $27 pay pal fees.

The kit sells for a little over $1000 and you can find it anywhere for $780-$850. I sell it for $760 shipped. The rims regularly sell for $1480 shipped.

A-spec kit or rims? I just have the 3G TL rims on a huge discount while they last..

You can't beat AckTL05's prices unless you're buying used. Get them before he's out!

I've seen some of the back bumpers on the Anthracite's not matching that well; however, I've seen others that do match. Has anybody from this group buy with that color had the issue or not? I certainly don't want a bumper that's not matching like the pics I've seen that had that issue.

I'm also interested in the next group buy if the bumper color matching issue is non existent. If I miss the thread please send me a PM. Thanks.

There still available just not at the group buy price, but I mean your only saving $45 if thats not a problem. Plus you need 20+ people to join you in the next group buy. Ack sells it much cheaper than anywhere else for $760 shipped regular price.
