Thanks! Its an ebay kit, by express aero kits. It a modellista look-alike but for sub 600 bucks I couldn't beat it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/13-16-Scion...UAAOSwTo1c00X1
The fitment was pretty good everything considered, especially since I went in and made a custom carbonfiber in-lay in the center of the lip and the epoxy resin make it a lot more rigid and not flex-friendly when it came time to mount. It ended up having a couple of small gaps from the edges to the factory bumper/body that I filled in with just some regular grey-colored silicone. I think doing that really gives it the appearance of really near-perfect fit. |

last night I made some time to get some stuff done to the wife's car again:
-godspeed LCA for the rears -rolled fenders -test fitted the xxr 527 18x9.75+20 in the rears to see how it will look. Wheels/tires are in the shop as of this morning and hopefully will be mounted before this evening so I can actually test it and see how much camber it will need to run to fit.. |

Not a glamour shot at all...three days of interstate driving during bug season. Still doesn't look as bad on camera as it was to see in person, and it was so much fun cleaning it off. There were some really big splats on there.

^I don't think you'll regret it I literally did no sort of prep to make it fit and it came out half decent, if you took a little time and test-fitted all the panels first and did some light sanding/bodywork to them before paint I think they could come out quite close to a factory fit. And don't forget the grey caulking
Finally got the rest of the work done to the wife's car and went for a quick drive to make sure she wont have any issues with rubbing/hitting with bumps and turning. The amount of rain we had has been crappy, but made for some decent cellphone pictures lol |

Yep, that's where most of those bugs came from along the way.
