Looks really good. Nice and clean. :mrgreen:

Don't ever get rid of that lip kit ... no matter what. Also, work on not over-exposing your pictures. It's a fine line when you've got a white/silver car. =)

Yep, that's the OE front lip.

Front end reminds me of my coupe. :D

Clean car.

Keep it all silver, like it is now. Look into a drop and some wheels. Also, I would suggest seeing if you can find the matching rear lip. Coupe/sedan rear lips won't fit. You need the one for a hatch. Look at Eran's car if you want to know what it looks like.

Carbon fiber ages badly and takes a lot of upkeep to keep it looking new.

They way I did mine doesn't let in any water.

I used the stock cap-nut and an extra hex nut on the rear studs and just made them into little posts. I then put a double-layer of electrical tape on both the inside and outside of the hole in the hatch. The cap nut posts just sit on the old hole.
