so far, i have the lip and sides installed.....Lip made a big difference, sides made a small difference. I'll try to install the rear tomorrow.....any tips? I have heard mixed opinions about the non cutting/drilling method. I'll give the non cutting drill method a shot, if I need to drill, I guess i will be doing that.

Everything will fit in the car, just recline you passenger seat and start playing tetris. I had to fit 2 sides, 1 front and 1 rear from my apartment to my parents house.

Ordered at Sewell, installed at Westminster (Kerry tried and couldn't get it but still honored his install price). Pics to come from my crappy cameraphone.
