For now, I have only ordered the front and rear skirts.

ah ic, that's cool. i saw your have wheels so want to give a heads up in case you are getting body kits

I agree. I have 285s on the back with a big lip and it still looks small. It is definitely better than stock. Lowering it will help a lot. Now if only the coilovers were available....

Wow. I like these so much, I just ordered a set... :-)

I'm trying to keep the body mods to a minimum. I should be getting my front grill inserts, roof and trunk spoilers in the next week. I suppose I'll get these just after that - a week for paint, and I'll post some pictures :-)

They are the inserts from Wald (the lower front bumper inserts), I ordered them from Prestigious Society.

I've found Prestigious very easy to work with, BTW. They have gone out of their way (pro-actively) to keep me up to date on the status of my order.

Yes, you have to drill 3 small holes in the rear and none in the front. They are small and will not be noticeable upon removal
