I will only point out one thing that stands out to me: It looks like the corner of the front lip could have been raised about a 1/4" or so of an inch to match the existing line of the bumper, you might be able to adjust that yourself. But overall I think it looks good

Good call on installing it!

Post some more pics after you wash it
I just looked at the pics of Long's car again and I think you're right. It does look a teeny bit to low on the corners. Looks like I'll be taking it back after all.

Hehe, you know how I do....gotta change things up after a while. One day I will put on a Prussian Blue kit with coilovers. It will be a while before I do anything else though. At least a year.

What does the wife think?
Wifey doesn't see a diiference. She thinks the car looks the same and therefore a waste of money. That made me feel good because I don't want it to look a lot different. Kits should enhance not make the car completely diffrent. Hopefully my mom won't notice a difference because she hates my car expenditures. She believes in saving.
