The Monster within.....UNLEASHED!!!
I thought I would share with you guys.....
This is the kit that I was trying to setup for a group buy but no one wanted in.....Oh well
But anyway got the wing, rear bumper, hood and front bumper on the car I am going to try to get the side skirts on the car by the end of next week........
I still have a lot of little tweaks and quirks I want to work out....but it is coming along nicely
Let me know what you guys think.......

The hood looks good, the body kit should too when it's painted, but the mesh on the front bumper doesn't do it for me. I'll reserve judgment for when I see it on the 23rd though.

i hope you haven't been driving around like that...white front, black rear, white spoiler, blue car?
the fitment looks ok in these small pics, but the front bumper seems to flare forward when looking at the wheel well. i don't know, it just might be my eyes cuz of the high contrast of the white bumper. will wait to see when it's painted.

It aligns with my intercooler perfectly so I would say it is about the same height as those with an App. Package.
Those without an app package I would say max 2-3 inches
I am going to rock the panda look\ Shark whale feel for a while I like all the people looking at me like WTF!!!! They hear the BOV and go WTH?!?!?!, then they see the flames and that just seals the deal for me.
I will have it painted by the end of the month......maybe a blue cammo paint job...

is that the fitment and everything straight out of the shipping box? or is that out from the body shop already? if thats out the box that is very nice. I may have to consider..

The rear is urethane
I have been trying to get rims but VarneyMazda seems to have been on the down low. I Really wanted his GT-7 rims but anyway I can wait no big deal there will be other rims available. As for tint, it is in the very near future as well as Tinting the the tails, headlights, side markers car and etc...
Fitment as follows it is mostly out of the box but those of you that do your own body work will know how easy/difficult it is to body work. The Wing had minor drilling that had to be done to make it perfect....probably 2-3 hrs worth of work.
The rear bumper was one complete piece...as in there were no holes or slots for anything, such as the licsense plate light hole, holes to hold the plate and of course the mounting slots. I would say there was 4-5 hrs worth of work on the rear bumper but on a difficulty scale of 1-10 I would only say a 4. Carving and drilling was needed so not to bad. Fitment on the rear bumper was EXCELLENT!!! easy to fit and mount, urethane is very pliable which makes it easier to work with.
The front bumper is fiberglass......what a bitch.....very stiff and difficult to work with I needed to carve out the side markers and now I have to refiberglass it to make it look good. Right now I am hoping that having it on the car and driving around will help relax and loosen the front bumper a lil bit. I had to remove the oem mounting bracket and redrill the aftermarket one to use the oem brackets. I then removed the side marker guides where the piece would typically snap to because of the way the mold was created for this particular piece. All in all the front bumper still requires more work....I am having some friends that have done this more to help out with perfecting fitment, patience and ahrd work will bring this project together. On a scale of 1-10 for difficulty I would say about a 7.
Thanks for the comments
BTW this was completely done by myself and I have never done any body work before..LOL
