I don't feel the front bumper, but everything else is really nice.

love the hood and the wheels. excellent job on the paint I have no idea how
they mange to match the paint btwn the composite and metal panels.
but I would have to say the front bumper just does belong there.
fitment is not so good. but again over all the car looks clean. good job

Thank you for the kind words!!! And to ZS14 (Bryant), yes I did wash my car B! I wash, claybar and wax! I even cleaned under my hood.

I am loving the hood myself and the paint quality is amazing. For those that are located near the DMV area, definitely check out the body shop D&V Autobody in Sterling, VA

As for the bumper, it's a Sarona bumper an I have the nostril looking vents molded. It's a love it or hate it kind of deal. I personally love it because I've never seen anyone else with the identical bumper. And I believe front bumper is the most obvious aesthetic part on any car.

The wheels are 19x9.5 +19 up front and 19x10.5 +17 in the rear. I was pretty surprised they clear my stock brembo as well! There's about 2mm clearance up front.

Looking good. BUT, you should consider dumping photobucket. Several of your photos are really soft and I blame the compression of photobucket.
