racer_65 is infamous around these parts
Is the car done? What are your impressions?

Any significant side-effects on gas mileage?

Also wondering if:
1) The Upsolute mod will invalidate the factory warranty
2) The car will still pass smog in California
?

But we want to do a good independent test as well.

Here are some pics of doing the fitment of the Jubily kit before it goes to paint. It is at paint right now. Going down there to have them paint match. The factory Offroad front bumper thing comes off but leaves holes, so we have to come back later to fill them. We have the big QUAD tips that go on too once the rear lip is there.

Eibach springs installed. Drove the car around last night, not to much stiffer, and definitely lower. Looks good!











You can see this stuff fits flawless. I am pumped!

OK... Let me first off say I have the best girl in the world. She helped at the shop for 8 hours sat and 4 sun getting this done. Taping, cleaning, holding, it was cool. I am not a tech nor a bodyman and was left alone to attempt this with no supervision! Well, I made a couple mistakes, cracked a piece, and then Jubily actually sent us 2 of the same side part, so it was a fun cluster you know what! All and all, looking at the passenger side looks great Parts fit well, though some sanding could have been done before hand for parts to fit. Rear tips look awesome in the rear lip. Going to get fog lights for the front lip.

Once I get the new driver side rear door molding will take other pics. The front over fenders on the passenger side I cracked, it did not wrap to well to the front lip. Fits perfect on the fender. I will have it fixed when I take it to have the front OEM bumper holes fixed from the Porsche "Off road" kit.

Besides time and the cost of the kit and tips, I spent $900 on paint which my guy did a dead nuts match. Definitely changed the look.

Final thoughts... awesome kit, cool look, let a body shop do the fitting! Updated pics will be posted when I have them.







This is the before pic -
