update: G3 Carbon Fiber Lip Kit. i've had the kit on for a few weeks now and it's holding up well. fit and finish are still top notch. and i enjoy that i did not have to use 3m to install the lip. the fit is tight enough with the oem bolts + 6 supplied bolts to roll without it.
what's good: the fit and finish is ridiculously great. the workmanship is evident in the laying and structure of the pieces.
what's bad: the price is a little high, but you do get what you pay for. it's still in the range of the branded mass produced stuff (aimgain, etc.) and.... it's not terrible, but it took over a month from the time i ordered to the time i received it on the porch.
overall: if you can afford to wait, its definitely worth it. it's from a composite fabricator that generally make stuff for corvettes, so their stuff can handle speed. be one of the few people that have this sweet looking set. it's 100% carbon fiber, no glass or plastic fillers.
Oh wow a month?
I ordered mine 2 months ago and it's not even sent yet.
got new shoes on. Enkei RPF1s. wanted to go more aggressive and get the concave faces.
18x9.5+30 235/40/18
18x10+38 255/35/18
it was a pain in the *** to figure out how to make the fronts work. clears the brakes by ~3mm and the upper control arm by ~9mm. messing with millimeters here! without rolling the fenders, this is about as aggressive as you can go.
the rears are perfect. I'm running -1.3 degrees of camber, so I get great traction and wear out of the tires
sits fluuuuusssshhhhh. more pics to come when I get time to clean the car.

I want these wheels always loved them. Kinda scary only clears brakes. By 3mm. What if wheels go out of balance and they need to add stick on weights will it still clear? Oh where you get them?

I believe the 3mm he mentioned is between the spokes and the caliper, no the barrel of the rim and the caliper.
If you look closely you can see stick on weights on the rim already.

this is correct. the 3mm clearance is the closest part of the front caliper to the spokes. this is plenty of clearance to ensure that there will not be any damage to the wheel or caliper.
I hit up Enkei America and asked for the closest authorized dealer.
Very nice aggressive looking setup. I was thinking of getting a square setup of the Enkei NT03's but the 18x9.5 only comes +27 and +40. From your experience do you think the +27 would fit front/rear w/o fender mods?
