My Shine Kit Pictures....unpainted

Ok Ive had the kit for about a week or so but today is the first day its been above 30 degrees and not raining so I finally got to shape it and put it on. The side markers fit in the kit (after some dremeling) but they still dont look right so I may just pay the shop for that one.

Anyways these pics are of the Shine Auto Project Autoexe replica front bumper, I installed it myself and it wasnt to difficult to do, spent about 2 hours (taking my dear sweet time). The front support bar that is supposed to be either removed or cut is still intake because the kit will fit without removing or cutting it with just a little bit of modification

Fitment looks a little better than mine. Nice job. Can't wait to see when you get it fitted perfectly.

Looks pretty good man. Just make sure you get some black mesh to fill the holes instead of the aluminum mesh everyone else gets. It'll look alot cleaner that way.

I know the hood looks bad but thats because Ive only got 2 bolts on the bottom 2 on each fender and none on the top, only the little nub that comes off of the frame holding it in place so the hood gap with bolts in comes out alot better.....still not perfect though.

It should look badass if the fix the gaps. The hood then around the passenger headlight is pretty off.

I think itll look great once painted though, congrats.
