the bodykit look great. Good choice.
I'm not try to be picky but the paint didn't seem to match (regarless of the angle or lighting) Did your body shop use PPG paint?

Side skirt paint is off. I got the bumper, wing and sides painted at different times, different shop. The wing matching is superb. The bumper is really good. The sides are actually better in person than the pics, but still off. I need a mesh or a grill for the front, but not really sure where to get one for the custom bumper. I need something for temp, cuz there will be an intercooler when I go FI.

I don't like it, but it's your car. You should take care of that paint matching thing.

I think you need some sort of mesh or grill for the front bumper opening. Or an FMIC. Lol.

thanks to all for the compliments and inputs. I went through hell and back to get everything done. I tried 3 different shops, each for the wing, front and sides. The fitment of the front, I would rate about 7 out of 10. edges around the hood area isn't quite precise. I maybe tint the windows later...

I like everything on your car except the WW side skirts and the Veilside wing. Nice.

nah, it's already too low and I decided not to. I think the kit lowered it by an inch already.

Really nice!!!Good pairing on everything. Love the TK front!!
You need to loose the rear mudguards though. They belong on an SUV not a Z!!!
