Bought parts of an incomplete aero kit from a member on this forum, and filled in the gaps from Justin at Sewell Mini. Total parts cost me 1200 total, plus 100 to paint the side pieces, and spent a few weekends putting everything on.

And yes, the roller coaster was intentional...

I think de-chroming with blue would look slick. Plasti Dip does make a blue!

Found it on amazon. Com $159 with free shipping! It's heavy duty and worth it! The rails are factory! It's a no name made in china... I believe on the site they say its a Thule but its not!

At my local body shop - it was a dead match and looks great. I'll probably be going back to him for the headlight/taillight rings.

Maybe this has been asked but what did you use to paint the calipers?! Was that your local body shop?
Been thinking about doing mine in surf blue.

Any auto parts store has the Caliper Paint Kits for around $20 in multiple colors.

I used Duplicolor Paint - you can get it anywhere. However they have 5 colors and their blue just happened to match True Blue.
