thanks, but still not as much as yourself. goodness, look at the girly brakes. that's what really annoys me. i need bigger brakes to, um...compensate. suspension is still so weak too.

but thanks for a little encouragement!

thanks for the compliments and glad i could help a bit. there is no fitment issue at all. there is only a tiny end of the bumper that is about 1/4" out of place, but not enough to quickly notice or bother me.

i paid $2150 shipped from Hiro, since he was one of the few vendors back then. Steve now offers the kit for about $1680 or something along those lines. $1,032 for paint and install of kit and exhaust.

paint is chipless through a few thousand I-5 miles, and happy as can be with kit and everything

Thanks... If I was you, I'd talk to Steve about the Bodykit.. That's where I got mine. Se what other kits he has/ or can get quickly... The only reason why I got the L-Sport is because a few months ago when my car was like 1 month old a cart at Home Depot smashed into my car and made these wicked @ss scratches and I needed a kit fast to replace the front bumper. I'd see what other way you could go.. It seems to me that more and more people are popping up with L-Sport kits... Goodluck Trance...

i think for you and I, local rarity is not a problem, and the same applies to Trance on a smaller scale. california is definitely a place to really try hard for something rare. but the l-sportline has the most distinct rear without being "out there" like the blitz
