No but it looks somewhat like it. My buddy Andrey who has a SC300 does custom exhaust work and did it up for me.

You literally have the perfect aired out stance. If you want a new lip/skirts, I'll recommend the following:
  • If you want them very soon (like 1-2 weeks soon), Version:Select.
  • If you could care less about time and want some nice brand-name stuff, check out JDM bidding sites, such as BidJDM, though shipping and what not gets confusing.
  • The LS Classifieds, as people do sell their stuff from time to time.

Thank you man. I do like the version select kit as I would just get the front lip and skirts. My front bumper comes really close to the ground already from how much I've cut from the strut towers so I'd have to rebuild the wheels to sit on the fenders like the rear does or else the lip would get crushed.

Finally got my hands on a decent camera instead of always using my iPhone. Here's a few from today.

Since last time I've added more camber and tucked the rear wheels.

Then I took off the window and roof visors, added tint, and a front lip and side skirts.

Still a work in progress!

Yeah... my buddy who owned it before me fixed the entire air setup. It was rough. I am looking to sell the air setup and put this thing on coilovers actually.

wow did it take lots of work to get the wheels to tuck? i actually prefer the tuck look on our car over the tsurachi look. kudos!

what front lip and sides?

usually when someone goes back to coilovers that means they are fed up with their air setup not being reliable or usable. what don't you like about it?

Thanks!

Yes, it took a lot of cutting to tuck this much. Front lip is Version Select and skirts are Duraflex. My daily is on air ride and when I picked this up its on BC struts with air cups. My old M3 was static and I want to make this static. Already have the springs to install right over the BC struts. Nothing wrong with the air at all.
