I had the side skirts and KW kit installed about 2 weeks ago. i have had some time to see how i like them and get some proper pictures now that it is warm out.
Lets start out with the KW kit. Ordered from autotalent and received within 2 weeks. Golan was great to deal with and kept me updated on shipping status. Autocouture did the install and set the ride height a little less aggressive for now. this will allow for any settling and i will revisit it once my new wheels arrive.
My main goal was to rid the front wheels gap. but with the added camber after the drop the wheels have a tucked look which i do not like. spacers would help that on these wheels but since they are being replaced i am not concerned at this time.
The Side skirts from RWcarbon. I was checking out the site and looking at the new rear diffuser they offer. took a look at these and decided to give them a try. they were in stock and they said they could ship out the next day. arrived within a week and had them installed along with the suspension.
I was not sure i would like the look as it may have been "too much" however i think it looks great. the CF is high quality and matches the other parts as well as the OEM wing i have. also keeps the line from the front lip going down the side.
I was told install was easy (3m tape and some screws) and fitment was dead on. only issue i have had is watching my feet when i get in the car as they stick out a bit.
Thanks, looks good. You might have more room in the back to drop based on the pics???
Thanks Vic, yes I def have some room and will fine tune it when my new wheels arrive. I am getting larger wheels with a custom fit so I don't have to add spacers.

Honestly I have not noticed much. I had HR springs once and it felt like my WRX turned into a Cadillac and floated after hitting a bump. Then it sagged and had to change to a set of coilocers, so I know what you mean.
So far these have been great. being able to raise/lower is a nice touch especially while keeping the electronic dampening function.
