I'm in Miami so the heat isn't terrible , it gets hot sometimes but it's not like you can't drive.

The grill looks pretty clean I have an original idea for mine when I get it done finished, some might not like it but ooooooo well lol

sweet sweet bro, yea mine was about the same, mine was great quality and came with a nice back peice and some metal studs to hold it tightly in place. it did take a while to get in the mail but thats to be expected coming all the way from china.

well if you are considering the front splitter then forget about the short bumper...the problem with the short bumper is that you have to remove the front security bar (i don't know if my translation is right sorry about it) and removing that really sucks so just don't do it...your life is more important than your car...

^ btw I see in your sig you're planning on a front splitter, where do you plan on grabbing one? I know there's no specific model for us. I was going to grab a universal APR one
