Btw, on the bolts you replaced the plastic clips for the inner fender liners. What if you bottom out and the tire rubbs against those bolts. Just a thought.
I did think of that, and I'll have you look at it, but it is not too intrusive. If I don't drive slammed do you think there would be a tendency to have the tire slammed into the liner?

Thumbs up wow wow wow

Goodness gracious Chris. Didn't know you're in here

Wow, the mode kit is super clean, especially that front bumper (not to exclude your other goodies)

Good find on those fenders

Could you pm on the price of the kit? If it's anywhere near JP price, then never mind

BTw, the you-know-what is on the way

your car is very nice. i cant wait to see the secret suspension setup.

it may just be me, but the front of your car reminds me a off a 996/997 turbo front end.

Can you find the newest mod aside from the kit?

The color on the car is a silver base with gold pearl. 5 coats of paint.










My JP's are sitting in the house. My front tires are worn down.
Hey bro, you forgot to hide your plate in one of those pics.

Sweet ride .. You're rear bumper is awesome. Can really feel it. Ever thought about halos?
