I know right?!?

Good thing I keep my engine bay spotless! Plus, the car only has 4000 miles on it so the engine bay still looks new

Just out of curiosity, how did the rear lip attach? Self tapers? I found it on ebay from the same seller and thinking about getting it. With yours mounted, do you think it will fit aftermarket exhausts?

Nice car by the way, love the hid and led swap and how it sits on the coil overs.
And I LOVE the black emblems, any chance you could post where you got those?

It used a few clips and screws it was supplied with. It was pretty easy to install... nothing special...

I have a Perrin catback 2.5" non-resonated exhaust now. I believe the tips are 4"??? There is still plenty of room to go bigger if I wanted...
