Mine looks really bad. and i have just had and amazing idea on how to fix it all.


instead of repainting the lowers the same color as the car(hence pretending to be an s-line vehicle) why not repaint the lowers in a clear-coated rich black paint. it will give the appearence of a kit but still maintain the original pieces.

I am so going to do this now!

I have never bought anything from here but they seem repuatable and they have a huge selection of front lips for some reason.
