So as of now, the build is done (I guess a build is never done haha). Here's a few shots I've taken in the past couple weeks now.

Fresh from detail at work, guy did an outstanding job. Note the universal "EZ-lip". Had to get something to put the front end a little bit lower using anything I find.

Only thing is the detailer didn't hit the wheels, so I took things into my own hands. Used a ton of Never Dull, then put some Blue Magic polish on (apparently Mother's isn't to be used on gold and I didn't want to take the chance!). Unfortunately there's some kind of oxidation under/around the bolts *sad face*
As it turns out, my front lips were disgustingly dirty. That's from half of one lip, and I was still taking a ton of dirt off. Like I could run a piece of Never Dull and it would be straight black after one pass.

I'm so happy the way she turned out, but I'll probably still be tinkering with her here and there. I'll mostly likely lower the back a teeny-tiny bit to close the 1-finger gap, or just wait til I run a smaller series tire (thinking 215/40 vs. 215/45).
Look for me at Water By the Bridge!! Unfortunately the show is euro only, so I have to park across the street. If you see the car, take plenty of pictures and post them! I love seeing other peoples pics of my car.
