so Steve, does that mean your gonna get playboy bunny stickers on your car now? Then it would be really Sik
Nah it should look pretty good. I might be interested in the gaurds when I get rims to fill them.

The car is looking great. It will be nice to see the finished product in action. Personally i would prefer the green but I am sure it will look great regardless
Just a little note about the fitment of the body kit. I think you guys are being a little hard on the guy manufacturing the parts. Having worked on composite aircraft, I know the dificulties in manufacturing tooling for composite parts and getting them to fit properly.
Anyone who feels that a composite part that has had maybe a couple of grand spent on tooling should fit as well as a steel panel which has had orders of magnitude more spent on tooling is really mislead. It just can't happen.
I won't comment on the fit of this particular kit, but I think you guys should be reasonable in your expectations. They are not OEM panels, they are a copy of an aftermarket part that had dubious build quality to start with.
Anyhoo, keep up the good work, I am enjoying the build story
Anthony
