yea i woulda gotten wheels first, the offset of stock wheels make it look sunken especially with a body kit

but oh well, i wont bust ur ***** over it lol

some 19's with a lower offset will look amazing, post pics on the finished product

p.s. NICE PAINT!

Whoever installed your kit did a really good job. That thing is a PITA to install. Nice paint.

looks like a knockoff. the front grill between the high beams is too high and in the front pic, the front bumper bows out at the bottom.

looks like pretty good fitment tho, especially around the high beams. nice paint too, watch out for rock chips.

how does your kit fit. I had the same kit. It was a vertex replica tho. But my front bumper had horrible fitment. There was a part of the bumper near the top of the pass headlight. Where it turns into a point or curves down. It stuck out. The driver side portion of the bumper stuck out. The Side Skirts wasn't molded to the door sill. So that stuck out and hit the door everytime i closed it. The rear lip wouldn't line up properly. Yeah, horrible. But yours seems to be alot better than mine was.
