theres stuff called zoop seal that's awesome on polished aluminum to keep it nice. as a cheap alternative once you get it polished up again, put some car wax on it, really it works

If you guys like it like this, check the car out without the front bumper. It's even better.

Yeah, good plan on the back; always easy to add the black later. Can't wait to see more pics! I might change my front and rear to this (and keep my USDM Nismo sides) when I get tired of my v1 front and rear.

More pics of the rear please. I actually talked with mike at MSA a while back about making a full rear bumper instead of a skirt (in order to avoid molding since i think it looks stuck on) and they said that was plans for the future. If the kit came with a full bumper, I probably would have swayed toward this kit.

they are part of the MSA body kit but yes they do look very similar to the USDM sides
