hey hey, dont base your mods on my opinions. Its your car. I like the kit, looks great as I said before, but to me the front lip seems to extend a little to far forward for me. What kit is that?? I dont think I've seen it before, unless I overlooked it(custom maybe??). Like the blueish headlights. I see you changed wheels again. I like those.

And yes, MORE PICS!!!!

Yup, I heard people call the Greddy lip for the 2nd gen a "cow catcher". I personally think it's one of the better ones, specially molded in. The bodykit is in development right now, this is one of the prototypes. The manufacturer might make a version2 front lip for the more conservative people out there. There's also talks about making these parts in a better material than FRP.

its actually a little thicker than regular window tint. I bought the kit off of ebay. I think they are selling them for $55 + $5 shipping. thx.

and yes i did have to use a hair dryer to stretch it a little to get it over the curves....its the only way to make it look nice..
