I am well pleased with the front lip. Not keen on the side skirts. It looks with the OEM rear spoiler.

Take a look (more pics in my gallery!)







I'vd had no warping problems, flexes a bit but hell it looks

I'm not sure how urethane would warp. I remember how 1Randyc reported issues with the paint cracking on him all the time. The more I think about it, the more I think that might be his painter's fault. Since it is urethane a lot of shops forget to use flex agents in their paint to help prevent cracking.
I talked to 1randyC about the kit (when I stole his Mugen wing wing ) and he wasn't pleased with the quality at all.

I've talked to Randy a bunch of times about the kit. His main complaint was that the paint kept cracking. Which would lead one to think they didn't use the correct process. Which is to add the flex additive on top of the paint so that it wouldn't crack when stressed.

I think you are talking about mikey k? If so read his signature. "18" Mille Miglia EVO5's (Front-8x18 +45 offset, Rear-9x18 +55 offset)"
