Tevi is referring to the Stock IPL kit. Its a very popular upgrade, and is extremely clean. It comes prepainted from the factory and obviously fitment is DEAD ON with it being a factory part. For clean kit!

MY front is the Polyurithane front lip that ONEighty sells. IF you want the Top Secret replica look, I would 100% suggest ordering this lip. Fitment is DEAD ON, and you don't have to worry about cracking it with it being Poly.
I'm so glad I asked you guys about this. I was super close to ordering it. But now that i'm cleared about it. Won't be ordering that. Thanks Lance!

Here are pictures of the front bumper on the same color as you and CV1

The insurance is only paying for the rear bumper. I'll put my own money out for the front. It'll be cheaper to get it painted the same time as the rear bumper anyways. The IPL Kit looks amazing. But how much is it for the kit? Can you link me to it?

The front is only like $283 (which NO ONE knows WHY its so damn cheap???), the rear and skirts run right around 1k each. Just keep in mind, they all come fully painted and ready to mount right on.

I really did like the look as well.

However, in the description of the finish of the wheels to begin with it reads like there is a silver and black both with machined faces. In reality, these were all silver, no machined face. So in some ways I look at this as almost a good thing.

And honestly, Concept one really dropped the ball twice during this transaction. Once, for conveniently losing my order. Secondly, the quality control of these wheels. In my book, that's at least one mistake too many for a not so cheap set of wheels.

I will take my business elsewhere in the future...

Just my train of thought

I looked into it. the bumper is crazy cheap and a really nice bumper. but I saw the JP lip and I think im just gonna go with that. And for the rear bumper, im going back to oem cuz i cant really find a nice aftermarket bumper. with some extra money in the future ill add on the v2 diffuser.
