Everything cost me about $1050...including the kit, paint, installation, also a M3 mirror.

You want to plow my driveway this winter?

I'm not into body kits but yours looks pretty darn good. Gunmetal wheels would look sharp with that setup!

Nice car 
White rims are great until you start driving on the track - then dealing with carbon fiber dust from your brake pads becomes a futile exercise. My gunmetal ones are pooched - there's some nasty baked on chit that I can't even get off with a wire brush. I can't imagine what they would look like if they were white. I'm not **** enough to clean my rims everyday.

Hope its not that obvious to every so it doesn't seem like a dumb question... which body kit is that? I think I might get it. I wasted money on a Bomex front end and I have had nothing but problems. It shoulda been here a month ago and now they say 2 more months and they tried to nearly double the price after I paid. I think I'll cancel my order and get that kit. I honestly want it so if you could tell me the brand and parts that'd be great.

Careful with the side skirts, it seems that they are designed to pick up every single speck of dirt/water/mud etc on the road. They also get scratched up easily.
