Thanks
There are no gaps as far as I can tell right not. It sits flush on the trunk. The TOMS button I got from Japanparts and here is the link for the spoiler:

The bulbs I also got from eBay, just search Stealthbulbs. I don't have wheel spacers, the offset chosen brought the wheels closer to sitting flush, the offset is +38

Just got my spoiler debating about painting it blue to match my car or leave it black. Looks like you have to bend it a lot to get the curve right is the tape that's on it strong enough to keep it in place? How is yours holding up?

Yeah you pretty much have to bend it into place. Mine hasnt budged at all, as long as the prep work is done right the 3M should hold

I've been gone for a while taking care of things. Just a small update, I received the Skipper FRP Front lip, a little Plasti Dip and it was good to go:

Nice, did you end up drilling your bumper? I just used the OEM spots and it seems it will hold on just fine. I might consider doing the rest of the screws but Im keeping as is for now. I also might just have it vinyl wrapped depending on how long the plasti dip holds on for.

Drilled additional holes plus OEM spots - holds as one piece with the bumper.

The fiberglass' ability of keeping the paint on it is way worse than the ABS' one even with the quality primer. Rock chips appears easily and small white dots look out (

Thanks! This might be the stop except maybe a tint and different wheels later on.

Finally got the chance to get the windows tinted. I went with 35% all around.

Nothing too big, I received the Grazio & Co. F Shift **** and Steering Wheel Decal. I am waiting for the clip now to install the ****, the steering decal came out o.k. but I should have gotten red. I'm also waiting on some Conti DW6's to come in...
