Any updated pics? Also did anyone have to modify their exhaust. The HKS exhaust tips are set back from the opening abit and think they need to be extended. Anyone else have issues with the exhaust?

Sorry guys, completely forgot about the pictures. Here are some picture, but also remember, these are of the car off of the ground on the lift. You might be able to see a couple of spots where you will see breaks, but they are not visible when the car's sitting normally on the ground.

Rich, this is going to be normal, as the kit sits further out then the stock bumpers. I have the JICs on mine, but they were OK, didn't look too bad.

I still honestly think that there's no way to retain the weather stripping on the bottom of the doors, where we test fitted everything, the weather stripping hung way over the side skirts. It was possible to open and close the door, but I highly doubt that paint on the side skirts will hold up over time.
