I have to go with the others here. I've never been a fan of the Bomex kit. However, I do like the front bumper, and the air inlet (looks to match up to the factory snorkel) is cool.

As far as the rear goes, the spoiler can look good with very agressive wheel fitment. I have never liked the rear bumper extension... its not clean enough to compliament the lines of the SC. The sideskirts are okay, but still not one of my favorites.

If you like it though, that's whats most important. It still looks monumentally better that SC's with the "v-speed" and "vertex-style" kits that go for $300 on eBay.

Not my taste in the kit but it's your car. I still envy what you have under the hood.

I think it was kool 3 years ago, but the trend today is to have kits that flows well with the lines of the car. The bulges definitely kills the kit for me. Voted no....but overall, nice car

i like the front bumper, it has a functional cold air intake vent. but the sides and rear look like they ran out of ideas and decided to go with pool foam doodles.

I have bomex on mine, quality of material is shoddy. The lines definitely do not flow. And whenever I get out of my car I tend to kick the skirts because they are so far out.

Is that a Home-Depot plant divider on your front bumper?
