I like the look from straight on, but I am not feeling the gills on the sides, not only that, but the snap on fenders in the rear make it look cheap

I saw the thread title and got excited, after seeing the pics I am really disappointed. Looks cheap, not digging the gills, or the rear.

The front bumper is nice looking. Minus the wing design on the bottom sides.

The front fenders, with it's busy dual grill design, seems to be really out of place.

Wow, opposite of what I thought people were going to respond. If you don't like the cheap snap on fenders look, Mold it, big deal. REA known for aggressive kits, even their lip kits, I LOVE THIS KIT, wish I had an 09.

No way Jose. . .

As everyone mentioned, the front looks ok. The sides to the rear look too ricey for me. Something APC would sell at PepBoys but on their higher end which is still low end regardless. That's my comparison.

The curvature of that front fender, while impressive, would be a hater magnet IMO. If you want birds nesting in your car then this is a must have...

I'll take 2! I like the big gills on the fenders. I think it pays good homage to the current vents. I hated the rivets out back at first, but as stated earlier it could be molded, and at least they aren't giant off colored bolts.

Either way, it's more aftermarket parts to feed the industry.
