It might still be in pre-production... It looks pretty good though.

Directly email AIT, since they're the ones who created it and distributed to SE (I think..)

major help you think if you color matched the cf sides it would look bad? mines an 08 so I don't have that colored black section in the middle of the rear but loving your setup though super clean!!!

My original plan was to color match the sides, but I think that they look more subtle left as CF which is the look I'm going for. Also, the color of the CF goes well with my wheels and black pearl emblems and is a nice contrast to the color of the car. Everyone I ask tells me to leave them CF as well.

Here's another picture from the side:

Here are a few pics of the full kit installed on my car. I might be selling the front to go in a different direction soon. PM me if interested.

Not sure. You can try contacting Speed Element (the SE in SE Tuned).

Just recieved my front lip and side skirt extensions. Though Ive already pmd a couple of guys directly for install advise, would you mind posting installation advice for other members?

Edit: Just recieved a pm from SB350 with installation tips on the side skirt extensions.

1) Remove OEM sides.
2) Drill 1/4" holes where the dimples in the SE Tuned skirts are.
3) Mark on your OEM sides where those holes line up and then drill 1/4" holes in your OEM sides.
4) I bought 1" long stainless steel bolts/washers/locking nuts from Home Depot to attach each side skirt in the 3 bolt locations.
5) I drilled 5-6 3/4" long self tapping screws on the "flanged" areas of the side skirts and one at each end.
6) Installed side skirt back onto the car.

One other thing I did that probably isn't necessary is I ran some double sided tape along the length of the SE Tuned side where it came into contact with the OEM side. I don't think the 3 bolts alone on each side would be sufficient. Also, you have to remove the little mud-flap things on your OEM skirts for the SE Tuned sides to fit.
