aero kit, no longer available?

We'll seeing that the aero kit in KAD color is not made any more I'm not sure if I am willing to spend the money yo get a kit from the dealership already painted just to have a body shop re paint it.

The iridium blue was not offered at all on the aero kit and I bought a random color and had it repainted and honestly it was well worth it.
 
Hey rip.... Sorry for missing in action lately but i been very busy with work and life... But i did finish all the work on my fx including the paddle shifter s and the interior led's and the areo kit as well... Im going to try to wash and wax her this weekend. Hopefully i will get some nice pics. Maybe you can help me host so i can finally show you guys my toy that looks like a smaller version of yours...lol
 
^awesome bro, nice list of mods as well. Looking forward to the pics
 
thank you for buying the entire kit and not just running one part of it.... car looks so much better with the full kit.


You will love it.

Thanks.

Also, called dealer today and parts are all in.

Thankfully no weird drama in getting the parts.
 
Got my car back on Friday evening.

Was pleasantly surprised how everything looks.
Honestly the pictures don't do it justice.
If you're on the fence about it at all, you should definitely pull the trigger.

Was slightly disappointed that the rear portion was a little bit conservative.

the front lip has got to be my favorite part, followed by side skirts, and rear last.
honestly I notice the rear portion least...
also installed the fog light trim kit.
definitely upgrades the look a lot.

painted tail lights with a tinted clear coat
honestly it's a little darker than I had in mind, but the look is growing on me
overall feedback on them has been better than expected.

now that the tails are so dark, the silver accents (badge, door handle, trim, etc. kind of sticks out at me.
I'm wondering if I can refinish/paint them like a satin finish so it's not as shiny.
maybe the hyper black GTR wheels will tone down the "chrome" look

any ideas what to tackle next to finish the look?

any comments, feedback is greatly appreciated.

How about plastidip dip those pieces to see what you think in a color you like.

Thanks, is plastidip the easiest way to go?
I was thinking of maybe vinyl wrapping?

what did you use to tint tail lights?

sorry I don't know exactly but I was just told it was a tinted clear coat ($200)
reflectors and backup light were done with window tint film ($30)

Looks fantastic.
Great looking FX

Thanks guys, it means a lot coming from you guys!
 
Plasti dip you can always just peal it off if you don't like i. That's of course you put enough coats

never done it before but I may give it a try.

I don't think I want to Black everything out though...
Maybe I'll go for Charcoal (Dark Grey), Gunmetal (Light Grey) or I heard doing a clear plastidip will make factory chrome or stainless more like a brushed aluminum look.
I guess everything is matte unless you do another few layers of Glossifier but it seems the Plastidip becomes harder to remove once that's applied.

Maybe I'll pick this up for $18.50.

I found a nearby place that does chrome delete for $159+, but I guess for $18 I guess it's worth trying it myself...

I love the look of the whole kit but am I the only one who thinks the sides and rears could be painted and look just as good as the kit? Or does the kit alter the styling in any significant way (other than the front of course)?
 
The side and rears have a little bit of a rolling flare on the bottom portions. Difficult to see in pictures. Others might have a better description.

Yup if you see it in person you will understand. The flare looks awesome and aggressive. Painting definitely won't look the same. I recommend getting the whole kit.
