cant forget the front bumper too...at least the side skirts look alright

I have the same kit, I actually took it off because it drug everywhere with my Sportlines. I love the front, but the rear is kinda bulky. I took it off in favor of less weight. I have a set of KW springs that would work nicely on your car though!!

I'm in the process of cutting my back panel of the rear bumper off like you said. I should have pics in a couple of days. I'm re-kitting my whole car...the black Widow 2 front with the drift sides and rear. I'll keep ya updated on how it looks.

The only problem I can see with cutting out the back panel is making the actual bumper visible. If you could get me some pics, that'd be awesome. Otherwise, I'm plannin on an SVT rear later on...I'll prolly keep this ugly one for a while and hope your cutting out the panel works well and I'll prolly follow suit.

the back part is supposed to be cut when you install it like you have in red, that is for stabilty when shipping

Nope...you are dead wrong on that. That IS part of the drift kit. It's how it's design, like the buddy club has two holes in the front, they're not there for foglights or air ducts, they're there because of the design.

It was actually easy cutting it. I'll be painting it this wednesday and I'll get you some pictures.

I think if you would paint the side moulding silver it would look awesome, the black moulding just sticks out

i dont know how much effort would be involved but maybe u want to paint the mesh black. the rear cut out would look nice, any mesh left for that area as well? the top of the rear bumper looks a bit wavy.

Paint the grills black without question, otherwiswe you are risking

Overall I like it very much.

The kit is rather overpowering, but a few things would help. A drop (as mentioned), bigger wheels, and possibly a rectangular exhaust tip. And also as mentioned I;d get the rub strips color matched.

i like the front ithink it looks good in silver, i would cut that back center part off for sure. also, i think the biggest problem i have wit hthe back bumper is the visual line of the fender flares isnt really followed through all of the way. you can see it just kinda stop as it hits the back bumper, if there is a way to mold in a better line i think that would almost fix everything. oh and i put the clear corners on and it looks goooooodd
