Mine is fine. Just watch the sideskirts when you hope out. Please advise your passengers to do the same.

Passenger side rear coner is not as close to the car as left side. And the rubber on the front bumper in the corners(where they bent) is slightly loose.

P.S. Mine was like that from the Sales floor, i still haven't been able to take it back. I read somewhere that mitsu release a fix for it.

self tapping screws work great-just paint them black
Honestly-for the money-skip the aero kit, and buy some nice CF pieces that will show off the car...splitter/lip, maybe a canard or two, some skirts/spats....maybe a low wing or gurney flap....and some coilovers

Dude I had mine replaced twice... They still come off the clips... It's just the side ones. I ended up putting a screw in them to hold them in place. AHHHH that **** pisses me off... After they make me pay 2 grand for the spoiler then they don't stay on....

My car has been at the dealer a total of 5 weeks cause of the driver side skirt. The rubber strip on the front has been replace 3 times already. I finnally used some super glue on the side skirt and it has stayed for about 2 months.
