So I've been looking around for the R3 skirts/front bumper but havent found them except on japanparts.com. Its expensive as hell for shipping from there. Has anyone managed to find them elsewhere stateside?

This is why you shouldn't knock offs or cheap kits for your car, this now makes the number of kits I've seen from extreme dimensions hit into the double digits, This makes number 4 I've witnessed in person, add to that another 8-9 people have emailed me pictures of etc. (I have friends that are painters and body techs, they're always texting me stuff they're working on, sometimes it's awesome, sometimes it's awful.)

This is a kit on a CTS that came by the shop needing some stereo/interior help.
Note the ill fitting gaps, irregular surface, poor quality...geesh..do I really have to elaborate? I mean, you think this is rough in the pictures, just think about how awful it must have been before they tried to make it fit or did any body work etc. Poor car, interior still smelled new and it had less than 10k on the clock...sigh.

Sorry I'm posting this here, it just seems like a quick and easy way to get a answer. The reason the Mint body is $150 cheaper than Velocity is because of material right? They look the same so I'm guessing material :/

The headlights ruin it. Not to mention what they would cost.

Yeah I hate the headlights on the GT widebody. If it retained the stock headlights, it would be gorgeous

I dunno, but am curious too...

from the looks of the web site, the $180.00 is for just the front lip not the entire kit...unless that is a killer military discount

Its a different vendor for the whole kit for 180~with tax maybe a little more, I figured it out a while ago... Same PN/kit, just easier to see on that site

I had it on my car for a while, thinking about putting it back on. Check out my pics. I only had the front lip, I wanna get the side skirts.
