Oh thought they didn't fit very well lol.

I was just excited to see what they will look like. I think I like the boot/trunk spoiler/wing the best.

I hope that the actual fitment is good.
I'm considering getting a replica rear, because I don't relish the idea of chopping my oem up...

+1 on pics!

I should have the kit fully installed in about 2 weeks and then I will post some pics. They are the urethane M1 Speed kit the front and rear were $300 a piece and the wing was $200 I chose them because are a nice soft rubber material so you can hit the odd curb and not break your bumper. I hope they will be easy to install so it wont cost too much. Most is covered by my insurance from the hit and run which damaged the original parts.
