Welp, I get my car back tomorrow, but today I did some exciting stuff, I got my rims put on, and as I was leaving they where in the process of putting on the front bumper.

They also goto wet sand it and buff it out / clean it before I receive it tomorrow.. also charge up my a/c.

but... I hope you guys enjoy the pics, the car is really dirty from all the dust / oversprey but the paint job on the kit looks really good.





it may look like the tire is about to rub the sideskirt, but its because its jackedup.







and when I receive the car Ill post pics of the finished product.

I also ordered my new licenses plate , i got personalized. it says "TIBBIN"

(btw that is me in the white reds hat.) rep!! cinci!!

Looking good. Make sure they clean off your engine bay right. I'm sure you don't want any more problems because they started spraying the shit out of it.

Looks nice, but to me it doesnt really look like the kit and the paint on the body match?

Dude I thought you put on some 13's or something because of the gap. Then I noticed the jack stand.
Looking good. Can't wait to see the finished product.

in the future, most shops will charge $75/panel to paint. body panel installation is not hard, just some bolts , screws , and some snaps. It dosn't feel right for me to have anyone else install anything aftermarket on my vehical. If it didn't come stock, then i put it on so i know it was done right and i know what to watch out for.

ive known these guys since I was about 4 years old.. they do excellent work... It started out if you remember getting the front end repaird because I hit a tree... and trust me... it would of taken you forever to do the bodywork on this bodykit. We had to refiber just about ever peice. Not having somthing done right is the least thing on my mind when it comes to these guys.


actully I shouldnt say somthing about you since I dont know you, you might be a professional at bodywork.. i dunno..

btw, I got an awesome price on this bodywork.. it was almost free..

no, i'm no professional at body work. I work on mechanical things. a screw is a screw. I had forgotten you totaled your vehical. I see why you took it to them now. As long as you trust them you're good. I trust noone with my vehical.
