thanks to him, asking my bodyshop to help me save some labor cost with his insurance, look what I got a month later...

basically, I only buy the parts...

sorry for the crappy blackberry photos. I'll get better photos when I am free..

Seeing an 8 that's been hit always makes me cringe; but it looks sweet afterwards.

Looks like you made out in the end. Nice rims btw!!

thanks man... at first i was looking at the Veilside D1-GT, but then, I decided that Veilside is too aggressive for my taste.. so I chose INGS+1 because it is quite eye catching but not too aggressive.

ings!! nice!

NIce front choice :)

Looks like a good turnout at the end, nice!

Wow! you got your 8 because they old lady hit you when you were on a motorcycle? did you sue her or something? glad you are ok and got your 8!
for free??

no, I only save labor and some of the parts. The rest, I gotta buy everything myself like the rims,etc...

so for example, in this crash, my bodyshop required new front bumper and sidemarkers. So, I asked him not to order those parts because I'll be getting an aftermarket new bumper and side markers myself. but, in the the accident report, my bodyshop reported that they would need these parts. So, in the end, I saved myself some money from not ordering the oem bumper instead, I just add some money for my ings as they cost a lot more than the oem bumper... and then, I saved labor and painting cost as it is included in the insurance repair quote as though they are repairing and painting the oem bumper...

same goes to the tires and rims, a little bit of my passenger front tire and rim are scratched.. I saved labor on putting my new rims and tires.

That's why motorcycles are the best, you get hit, long as the person gets caught, you make out like a bandit. DO NOT hit a motorcycle.

Body kit looks pretty good, I need to hurry up and order one, my front looks like poop from previous owner getting a maco on the front. (didn't catch as the paint didn't start fading and cracking till after I bought it...)

your car looks great! looks like it worked out well.

nice

Nice kit.
