very very nice well done, i have to say that i like the kit on the blue more than the silver and i'm not a fan of the hood, but the kit looks very good imo, do you have any pics of the car lowered also how much clearance do you have in the front before and after it was lowered with the kit on? if you happen to have checked.

I was expecting to open the thread and have to close my eyes ( I dont like most body kits ). But this actually looks really nice. IMO...looks like a more aggresive Nismo kit. ONNNNE thing I'd change, I would paint the mesh black or something, but hey thats just my opinion, everyone else may thing that would be ugly... *shrugs*

I agree, i'm not one for body kits, this is the first one i've ever had. I like it b/c it is fairly subtle. The best parts of the kit are the side skirts, front lip and the rear skirt that goes over the exhaust. I just wish it wasn't so expensive!! The front lip already has 2 scratches on it after lowering the car from TEIN 1". It is difficult to remember the lip sticks out nearly 3-4" and seems to bump into everything, I guess i have to slow down, dammit!!
I love your kit, it looks great on the car. I think the paint matches good too! I guess that other guy hasn't seen how off the paint is from Nissan. Are you happier that you lowered it or do wish it was stock height again?

From the experience of having dropped my previous car(integra) and then putting a kit on, I won't be doing anything of the sort again. Sure, it looks nice and aggressive in the beginning but it soon starts to aggravate you with the constant scratches and bottoming out on those surprise potholes. I hope you it's not your daily driver. Looks really nice, though. Congrats.

Paint and install was $350.
Thanks for all the compliments. I have to be so carefull when going up or down driveways, since it was lowered. Kinda of a pain, but the car turns so many more heads now with the kit, it is crazy.
