Default Installed my Seibon TT kit this weekend





The real question is do you think I should throw a spoiler on this bish or leave it how it is.

Either way here is the full TT kit, couldnt find any pics of this on the board so figured it might help someone.

Fitment on everything but the front lip was pretty good Sides 9.5/10 Rear 9.5/10 Front lip 7.5/10 lots of cutting was required and was a little off, but my front bumper has been off and on so much not really surprised. No tape on sides/rear but tape was used on the front but didnt help the fitment to much.

edit:
Need to drop my exhaust a little so the rear lip isn't touching the exhaust Still 9.5/10 for the rear lip tho

Also not my favorite front lip but got a good deal on the entire kit so it is good enough for me.

Nice. I foresee an awesome paint scheme. I have the Seibon rear spoiler (as well as the hood and rear lip) and it would be a nice add to yours.

Did you install the kit yourself? If fitment is that good and you installed the kit yourself. Would you recommend someone to buy Seibon products for our cars? The TT sides and rear are might second favorite for affordable carbon add on kit behind the Amuse sides and rear. The unpainted carbon fiber kit looks good on your car from the front. Don't paint the front lip, because the black carbon fiber disguise the wierd look of the TT front side splitters and the high open center.

@Monkey I did install the kit myself, I would recommend their products. The sides seem to always be a good fit, my boy has the CW style sides and they fit good on his car to. This is the first body kit install I ever did on any car and I did it all by myself. It took a a few hours to figure out exactly how to get everything on there but it was cheaper then paying someone to do it, so I did the install my self to save those $$$.

Well done.

I agreed on the part where you install yourself and save little bit money, because I never trust the body shop to do work on my car. Most of them are trying to make short cut to make more money when painting or install body kit. They either over spray your car and ruin your wheels, tires, exhaust tips, and CAI filters when it is done. Plus, they charge crazy amount of dollars for body works. So, I usually like to DIY, like test fit and install body kit myself and send them out for custom paint match for more affordable cost.

Leave as is or find a very low profile spoiler.

I think the overall look of your car is great.

Black roof and CF hatch would look pretty sick.

Nice job!

Yeah thats what I was thinking. Any more CF and it would be to RICE IMO. Might just get a stock spoiler or something. Still need to get a nissan badge for the rear so I can stop rocking the electrical tape.
