Did that front lip match colors? Something looks mismatched. And I'd peel of these rubber fender flairs... they add an eneven look.
Otherwise, nice work!!! Do you have a straight-on shot of the rear? I'd like to see how the tailpipes line up with the bumper edge. Thanks and keep up the good work!

I know you said it already, but you need a drop real real bad! 4x4 status with a lip kit hurts my eyes . Great start though and welcome to CL.

The front lip matches really good. I think it's just the lighting that could contributing to it. hahah those fender rubber guard doesn't bother me or her. I didn't take any pics of the rear straight on, but the muffler tip sticks out tiny bit (i did it on purpose). I used a rubber mallet to hammer it in but not all the way so it sticks out a bit.

HAHAH I KNOW! but we gotta pay off her lip kit + paint and we're going to Cali this summer so coils and wheels has to wait a bit..but none the less, it will happen. I also gotta install my coils and finish up my Si as well.

Welcome! Looks nice, but get rid of those fender molding or whatever it is, make it look cheap.

Nice! Like some other people said, I would consider adding the side skirts and lowering it.

Maybe I'll happen to pass by your car on the streets one of these days.
