car looks great.

question, to paint the silver part of the lower stock bumper, can it be removed from the rest of the bumper easily or you just have to tape the bumper and paint the silver part?

I believe the silver part does not separate from the rest of the bumper. It is all one piece.

Does Artisan sell just the front lip or does one need to purchase the entire kit?

Wow, looks amazing fam! Looks so good even with the stock wheels. Can't wait to see you put those AfterMarket wheels on! How much did the whole entire build cost you?

Its actually not from the exhaust its from the tires when i drive through water.

I think there is a fibreglass part to block the tires in the wheel well, I just have to figure out how to install it. Its these 2 flat weird shaped pieces.

Yes they do. I jus ordered the front lip and the rear spoiler and its about 1400 includes shipping but duties n import fees not included. So the front lip alone should be about 1000 said n done.
