Just the kit. The car's paint is in fairly good condition, and I recently clayed it no more than a week an a half ago.

Well I thought about filling the license plate holes, but to me I would like to put a plate in front, so it covers the lower grill. It makes the car look a little like a dodge, sorry just being honest. I do like the whole angled plate thing, I might do that.

And yes I do work at a body shop, I do the paper work. LOL, watch someone will break your record just because you said that now.
