Check out my ride! NEW WW G5 Kit

Well, here it goes my ride! after waiting for a month I finally got my G5 KIT from namotorsports! Thanks to them! As most of you guys remember I was debating if I should paint the kit to match the car paint it black... well I decided I will put them on for now since I'm still saving up for the paint. I thought it was only gonna be $250 but the shop said they will only paint it.. not prepping.. no primer.. so I'll just wait for my $500 for them to paint my kit good.. well anyway, here are some of the pictures of my ride.. feel free to give some suggestion/s, opinion/s, comment/s.. it will be apprecated!









THANKS!

yea I will get them painted ASAP! my car is dropped 1" with H&R Sports springs... but.. my next project is TEIN for my suspensions and drop it 2" more... I only have stock shocks right now and I don't wanna blow them.... thanks for all the compliments!

yea it will really look good painted... actually it doesn't really look that high in the pic? yea I think so... I have gotten couple of compliments on the road so far... I like seeing drivers on the road looking at my car everytime they passes me lol... this morning I was driving on the freeway and this guy driving a bimmer looking at my car for a long time and gave me 1 thumb up and he was gone... and my friends likes my car too!

LOL I realized all of you guys suggested to get my kit painted haha... I guess people's one of the pet peeves here is having an "unpainted kit installed" especially when it really looks ugly on a car I bet if my car's theme is not black and silver.. and I installed this kit not painted.. it will really look out of place and ugly...

Looks tight, I like the rims and you chose one of my favorite kits (I would get it if my friend didnt have it)

Hey I know People have harassed you about the paint but do the mirror's a favor and give em some paint too.

ok thanks

chinky,
well at first I installed them without screwing them on... to see if they're perfect fit.. so basically I just wasted the 3M double sided tape that came with the kit and I had to buy a new roll... then I took them off.. put a new one.. then put them back on with screws.... pretty easy but just really need to be careful for the alignment...

hurts2bstock,
Thanks I will paint them too!

ftk01civic,
thanks for the compliment! i will post more pics when i get them painted

well the front lip fits really well.. side skirts and rear lip are ok but they still fit just needed a lil muscle to fit them and screw.. and now they're fine.. I know it'll be a bitch to remove the 3M.. but I am thinking of using this product that remove gum, tapes such as this 3M.. would this hurt the paint of my car?

I can't wait to paint them either LOL.. thanks for the compliment.. I think carbon fiber spoiler will look good and carbon fiber hood.. aren't they?

I work in the advertising and sign industry and we remove glue from vehicles all the time..........the best thing in the world is called Rapid Remove.....I belive the company is called Zep and it is an orange bassed solvent so no prob on your cars clear coat......the same place that will sell that stuff will sell you a new roll of 3-m or other name brand tape.

Ask a local signshop (Fastsigns) where they buy theirs, it may be called somthing else down there but if you can find any citrus based solvent you should be ok
