paint looks very nice.

a few things though:
front bumper installed kinda crooked,
rear bumper painted wrong and
side skirts looks like it hangs off the front too much

other than that, it is clean

Yea..front bumper needs some bolts it only has like 2 in it..it was just thrown on quickly. The side skirts we just put on like an hour before the pics were taking, they need adjusting too. And the rear piece is painted wrong but its easier to paint the black on top.
