Here's a couple of shoots I took tonight about 3 hours after I got the car back from the body shop.... Still hasn't been wash due to a couple of spots that needed touch up paint because of rock chips.... But I could not wait to start taking a couple of pictures.. (I'm just bought a Nikon D-80 and I'm still learning how to use it).. Images were resized for better viewing.. I'm planning on doing an all out photo shoot this weekend so hopefully the weather is nice....
This would have been an awesome picture if I had a tripod

Looks awesome... Tom's has the best kit, I swear. How come you didn't get the front lip, too?
Also, so, you had the dealership order the kit for you? Or you just had them install it, or what?
And finally, you should adjust the brightness of the pics. Too dark. And post more.

I'm not too sure on an exact amount but I would say around $11,000.00 to have the car to where it is now... Worst part is that it's not done yet there are still a lot of small things that I want to add...
Thanks man I was going back and forth between a white or black roof spoiler but I think that it looks amazing with the white....
