Looks great!!! The colors dont match that well though. My friend that does all my painting says VBP is one of the hardest colors to match. It has so much pearls in it! Any tiny mess up and the color is all off.
Your front lip is getting more attention than mine, and its the same one!! Hahaha!
It does look great. Im so getting that wing.

You're right, VBP is really hard to match. I had to get it painted twice. There is a little bit more pearl which is why it looks a little bit darker from some angles, but overall, it matches up nicely...I didn't think anyone would spot it in those pics, good eyes!

Justin,
it was well worth the extra efort you put in it. Beautifull!
I love when guys like you (George02, Mx6GT89,.....) keep the original design and work with it. Many times body kits change original design of the car in such a radical way that they look like they do not belong on that particular car.
Tastefully changing lips and accenting portions of the car in contrasting color creates awesome effects. Love it!

Thanks for all of the positive comments guys, I really appreciate it! Took me a while to plan and get everything together then make it fit right, but I think it was well worth it in the end. I decided to go with a lip kit mainly because #1: full body kit would mean a LOT more modifications. They never seem to fit right and I don't have the time to fiddle with it for more than a day. #2: They never fit like stock bumpers do. #3: It costs more. Overall I thought this lip kit was a good project. In the end, I got what I was looking for
BTW mx6gt89, I thought of a new excuse, "I'm goin for the minor 2 tone look!"
Anyways, this was my target, I think I've pretty much achieved it (once I get that tailgate garnish installed!):
Only thing different is the rear spoiler. Oh and the fender decals I pushed back to the doors...you'll see why shortly

LOL hey HEY! Don't steal my idea, come up with your own! Just kidding...I'd estimate 2.0 at a major event...I consider a full lip kit a 2.0 event...any other smaller events are like minor updates...so when I get my brake stuff in, then I'd call it 2.1, etc. etc.
But hey, it's up to you guys to decide. Maybe that's why I'm getting more attention hahaha, everyone is intrigued by the 2.0
And Kevin, something about what you said doesn't make it sound too pleasant LOL! I don't wanna see anyone unleash their 2.0

Ok.. I get it. I think Ive added my way up though. All those 0.1's and what not.
Anyway, my guess is the decal isnt in the same position because you have sidemarkers coming in?
Deff something I want.
