Meh not my taste, kit looks too big and bulky for the width of the car.

I think the bumpers look good. Looks like you did a nice job on painting the rear. I'm just not a big fan of the skirts. I don't think they flow with the car. I really like the rear bumper though.

It was my first time painting. I know how now but if any of you guys do it make sure you tape off the car good, wet sand between coats, and dont stop moving the gun.

I think the front (needs mesh) and rear work, but the sides look a little goofy. I agree with scott that rims and a turbo will seal the deal. Keep going with it.

+1 for the mesh on the front...i think the sides would look better if they were molded in....Awesome job painting

You should black out the headlights. There are plenty of DIY threads about it.

I just tinted my tails with VHT Nite Shades.
Here is the link to the thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=215278. If you want more detailed instructions I can give you the tutorial I followed.

The sides look huge on the car. They look way outa place. imo. The rear looks great. I love that bumper. wheels and at least a exhaust tip. The stock straw looks funny coming out of the bumper.
