well i got the front part.
poor quality compared to the carlsson stuff. no manual, no securing points so it must be done with glue/silicone again but its not included.
will check tonight how well it fits. i'll need to paint it first also

Sorry to hear, but most front lips are designed that way no?

Given the price, I would expect a much lower level of quality compared to Carlsson.

Can you post some pics?

Well truthfully, both my front and rear lip (rear being from Carlsson) were also designed to just be siliconed/dbl sided tape on for the most part.

well it does fit so size wise its oke.
this weekend i'll look in to how i will attach and if possible reinforce it so it doesn't move/bend by the wind which would result in cracks in the silicone

It looks like you would have to replace the whole bumper... or cut?!

what about those rocker panels on the side with the air inlet closer to the rear wheels?
And the rear diffuser!?
The one on their website does not match the one on the OP's photo.

Doa only ordered the front part, the air inlet needs to be cut out.

They don't offer the rocker panels yet (the images I posted are computer generated mock-ups). The rear diffuser is a stick over job where the one in their concept would have required the OEM bumper to be cut up

no kudos to me, it's the images on their website. If I can drum up enough interest to do an Australian bulk buy I will definitely install them on my car

no haven't had time yet. i still need to paint it first.
fitment seems fine but i wil also check if i can mechanically add some securing points and not just silicone it since there's a lot of stress on the front bumper at high speeds.
i also asked for a manual but got a reply that a decent garage knows how to do it...

I have to admit that they have poor customer service.

If it isn't too much trouble, could you mock up a fitment so we can see the real deal, unpainted, on your car?

i wanted to secure it on the inside with easy removable tape but it didn't hold so its this crappy way.
topside seems easy enough to silicone but will require some modification to secure it below and the back sides need to be closed off too.
its far from plug & play

Looks very nice though, and the fitment seems quite good - no big gaps where it mates to the bumper.

Thanks heaps for the photos mate, I am pretty well sold on it now
