Here you go, the car is chrome silver. Had some problem with parts fitting, Somerville Auto Center did a nice making it fit. Pics are taken at the garage, figured I could potentially damage it on the way home.
Parts installed
Stillen Front Fascia Ver II
Clear Corner reflectors
Stillen Rear Spoiler convertible version
Ordering some more Zaino stuff now, giving it a good waxing when the paint cures next week.

Looks good, but, I would suggest getting the rest of the kit so it flows better... Don't think you need the chin spoiler, but definantly side rocker panels and the rear valance... Might want to also think about putting in a grill of some sorts to cover up the openings... But definantly like the bumper

Thanks. I'm having Mesh put in after I have clearbra put on. That way less chance paint get's damaged when they remove the bumper. Probably some kind of Dark Mesh that isn't painted but anodized.
I would put in rocker if I wasn't living in NewEngland, so much crap on the road. The stock ones are pretty dirty.
Also wanted to add that the parts were pretty poor in quality. I went with Stillen because members here had good experience with it but there was tons of fitment issues and bubbles in the urethane. This is probably the last time I would buy a stillen part. I would have been better off buying something from Ebay and save money, since either way the bodyshop needed to rework the parts.

I didn't have any bubbles in any parts of my stillen kit, but they did have to do a lot of sanding to get the pieces to fit right and it was costly to, they chargeed me $2200 to have the kit prepped and painted.. but they did an awesome job.
The bodyshop used black mesh on mine and it came out pretty good looking...

They charged me $1800 to have the parts put on and have front/rear/wing painted. Also they sanded the front half of the car and reapply clear coat.
A little more than I expected but it would have been more if I had not put it in writing.
