The holes on the front lip, does it go all the way through or does it end? If it ends.. wouldn't the air get caught in the hole giving it more wind resistance to the car? Just curious..

You need wheels spacers and bigger tires and sideskirts. Other then that it looks good.

lips and rears looks good but bro you need some sideskirts BAD! That huge front lip and rear lip would look so gross without large sideskirts to complement them.

The way things are right now you have really low front and rear but the middle section of your car is way high up...looks terrible if left the way it is, would be hot if sideskirts are added.

the fit on the front lip seems pretty bad...it's got gaps all over the place...

+1 on the sideskirts, it'd complete the look.

275/30 is too small of a diameter and makes your wheel gap look bad, not to mention that offset. 275/35 for a 19" is standard 275/40 for 18's is where its at....I cant believe people dont use tire calculators.

its not that bert, most people go with 275/30's because you can find cheaper tires at that size, like the generics on ebay and the generic brand on tire rack "generals" not worth it in my opinion, i would rather fork out a bit more to get the right size and more sidewall protection for my wheels.
