looks great! I can't wait to get mine installed. There in the paint booth now with an appointment set for monday (side skirts, "taco", and GT3 bumper; all OEM)

Have you put any thought towards clear bra on bumper and leading edge of skirts?

Im trying to decide which way to go....im thinking the 3m clear film on the bumper and skirts...though i would probably do the whole skirt so there is no line....She is off the road for the winter now so im not worried..

I have been told by the paint sho to let mine "gas off" for a month before I even think about applying the 3M stuff. I did get a quote, $300 for the bumper and $50 for each skirt. Anyone know if this is high, low, good, etc?

Looks great! I did sort of the same, but went with turbo look on the front and rear bumper covers... Gotta love those cabs though...

Congrats!
