Other than that Kenstyle rear that I dislike, the rest of the car looks great! Oh does the paint on the rear window spoiler match up better than in the pics? Seems like a much flatter non-pearl white in the pics...

car paint matches great.... Don't know if you have an IP G or not but for the people that do notice a color difference on the metal & urethane areas of the car... since this kit is glass...it takes the paint differently than on a metal surface....but for as paint match, its a 97% match. I couldn't be happier with the job. Last thing.... IP is one of the hardest colors to match and for everyone who sees the car in person especially body shop guys, compliment the work that was done to my car.

I am concerned about the gap between the hood and grill, is that an issue or is that the norm for that bumper?

brian if you read the thread... you would have realized I set the gap on the hood from those rubber spacers that are adjustable underneath the hood for the simple reason; when you close the hood, it hits the top of the grill. I am in the process of getting a bigger rubber guard that runs in front of the trim of the hood. If you keep it close...within time the paint will chip off....replica or not.... and this was done b/c my body guy told me to do it if i didn't want the paint to chip. This applies to any aftermarket paint job..not the kit.

Front windshield is 30%, 6% for all the other windows. I simply love the front window tinted; no glare & I don't have to wear sun glasses. Between the 8000k hids & piaa fogs @110 watts; It's always daylight in front of me...don't mean to **** people off that I'm driving behind.
