Really guys you have to see it in person. It just gives the car a more complete look.

VERY NICE.

Are the foglights hanging on right? Seems like there's no support.

Ricky,

what is the little sticker on your front lip?

I have the TTE front lip too but certainly doesn't look as good as your molded one.

I must say that your car looks really sweet with that kit on. I like that fact that it is not one of those outrageous kits.

Dennis, the sticker is the TTE logo/decal

Sasha, The gap between the grill and bumper? I think it is just the angle of picture.

GS4Will, There really isn't a mold per say. The additional portion can be made quickly since there is a mold for that. I can ask him how much to make the inner portions. PM me for more information
