looks like Tom's rear diffuser, AIT or TOM's side skirts, and Bayson R front lip. Cant tell if they're authentic or replica.

Hey flawless, I didn't go with the KW recommended ride height, I just kept the rear 1/2" higher than the front. I'm messing with the compression and rebound adjustment, can't seem to find a happy medium?

Nick, are your taillights tinted with film (%?), or did you spray them? Whatever you did, they look just right.
