Nice. I wouldn't normally think of the red lip working, but you pulled it off!

No doubt. I've wanted the JCW side skirts since before I got my car. But $700 un-painted is a bit rich for my blood for a cosmetic change. I'd rather get the ALTA ECU for that kind of money!

Have you considered buying the entire aerokit and selling off the front and rear bumpers? I would think that there are others besides me that are interested in the bumpers.

I know I've considered the opposite--buying the kit and selling the side skirts.

I haven't, but maybe I should. The whole kit from Morristown is only like $1300.

Ill be joining you guys in about two months. in the general ds/w sense at least, I got some other extra options so to speak. forgot to check off the white wheels, but I figure its for the better...Im not obsessive enough to keep those even remotely clean.
