I thinkg the kit is $1800 plus shipping. I have seen it on a couple dif web sites for about $1500 shipped but they didnt have it in stock when I was looking. If you call Seibon direct they can give you the names and numbers of local dealers for your area.

Why pay the extra cost for Carbon Fiber when you just painted over it? Not only does it make the bumper heavier than if you just painted over the Ings+1 Hybrid Aero, but also more costly this way.
Kit looks good though... just not sure about painting over the CF look.

I initially wanted the CF look. But after mounting the kit on the black car I didn’t think it looked clean. It looked sporty but I lost that luxury look. Painting it to match gives me both I think. As far as weight goes yes It would have been lighter to go with the INGS+1 kit hybrid but honestly the Seibon kit painted only is about 40lbs and you remove the stock side skirts so all n all its only gaining about 20lbs to the overall weight of the car. I think most people add that much switching from 18 to 19in wheels.

The fitment was very tight but looks incredible on the car. I took off the bumpers for installation so I could use bolts with locking nuts on all of the pieces. This procedure takes a long time but I think its better then just holding the pieces up to the car and screwing them in. The first time I put the kit on it took about 8hrs and about 2hrs to come off. For the finnal install after paint it took about 4hrs for install plus wash n wax.

Where can you find the Ings+1 kit for under 1800? BP has it for 2k+, but then again they offer $1 shipping. Heh.
The only reason I consider the Seibon is because of it's availability and price.
