wow, your car sits nice and low, very very clean, can't even tell from the pics that it's the VIS, but still clean nonetheless

Had the same problem with the junk VIS kit (was almost 3-4 inches to wide on the front bumper). I'd love to hear how much your guy charged to make it fit. I sent it back after much hassel and bought the bomex kit. But let me know how much he charged I'd love to know. Cause the only people that said it needs minor mods to fit was no surprise VIS.

Good luck hope you have good luck with it.

P.S another problem I had with that front bumper was that if you look at it right out of the box (before it's sanded or priimed) you'll notice it's almost see through and has lots of blotch marks. That means poor fabrication. If you have that I suggest not even waste spending the cash putting it on. Because that means it's to thin and very VERY weak.

Just thought I'd give you some 411 on that kit. It looks great but I just like to help people not make the mistake I almost made.

great ride....i think you rims look really good, cuz your car sits really low. normally not a fan of 20" but in this case they don't make your car look "goofy".

hey bud,
i forgot how your old car looked like until you posted this thread. It looks excellent!

20's and a kit makes the SC look pimp.
