Default Kaminari Kit pics!

I finally got my sideskirts and rear bumper installed, the body shop quoted me $1000+ for just the sides and back painted/installed. I decided to just do it myself, with the help of my father, heres some pics.. ( I think the paint came out damn good , considering i paid $115 for the paintjob and installation total, DIY is the way to go

car was filthy by the way, but the camera was kinda nice to it..






gotta have a burgerking pic, ya thats me in blue



and a group pic with a couple friends..

Looks awesome. Can you get a pic of where the exhaust comes out, I am trying to see if I need to get rid of my HKS and find something that will fit.

Looks great in that color, nice and clean.

Nice tC. I photoshopped out some of the crap in the background and brightened your wheels up a little bit, so if you want it as a wallpaper, it'll look cleaner.

Is the kit made out of Poly or Fiberglass...Car looks sweet...Get some nice JDM wheels to compliment the car; Nice choice in the mesh style, go Works Rezax, VS-XX or some Trafficstar STM or RTS...

You're gonna need to get rid of the hks exhaust. I had my kit put on last week and we had to do some cutting to make it fit but I had to take it off after cause it rubs on the bumper on high speeds.

Pistolpete good job on your rs.. looks exactly like mine.. you beat me in posting pics! lol.. what's your drop? I have the h&r sport springs and I scrape on dibs and almost every driveway! lol.. keep up the good work mang.. the pentas would look hot! if only the have it on black with a polished lip.

Thanks guys, as for the paint matching on the sides..it should match because it came out of the same can as the rear bumper did..its hard to tell but my car is really dirty in these pics, the camera was really kind to me.

Im on tein s-techs and yeah, i scrape a lot when im not careful..my own driveway is brutal, my neighbors see me pulling out and it takes me like 3 minutes to get out cause i go so slow and careful..but i never scrape anymore i found a sweet spot

Also, the kit was Urethane, basically I scrubbed the whole kit down with some brillo pad material and scuff soap, till you can run a waterhose over the urethane and the water trickles right off....if you get droplets that kind of stick to it, you didnt clean it enough. Then you spray some paint adhesive, i used bulldog brand adhesive, waited 15 min..did a 2nd coat of bulldog, Waited maybe another half hour then went in with the red paint, 2 coats then i hit it with clear. It wasnt as easy as that, I had to repeat it a couple times to get it to come out right without drips or anything..afterall im not a professional

by the way, nice photoshop ..i think it looks a lot better with lighter colored wheels!

What are you planning on doing with your Enkei's when you get some new wheels?
