I can't remember, the pictures were taking almost 2 years ago. I believe it's on extremedimensions.com.

whoever put the lip on is way off. the lines are supposed to match up and not supposed to be sagging.

Would look better with some sideskirts to match and maybe some spacers.

work in progress. they are never finished :P

You need the rotary accent on the front . I have the same lip with the accent and it makes a big difference. Side skirt would be nice, since we're talking lip will leave it at that.

Fitment is definitely off but should be an easy fix at a body shop

It was a Last minute install. It was actually put on that morning. No rivets, it's actually screwed on with a nut on the back. Like I said, it was a last minute thing. But thank you for all your compliments and opinions. I will get a new lip or get this one fix, money is sort of tight right now. However I am looking at the RMagic front.

I think it looks fine. But, you should look into getting sideskirts to finish off the look. Looks real empty on the sides.
