I'd like to see a close-up of the bumper where it meets the wheel well. It looks like it sticks out.

I totally see what you're talking about, but it lays just the same as our bumpers meeting the fenders, like in your signature pic.

not too bad at all.

It's a shame that those are replica kits or otherwise I'd be all over it.

For around $600-800 more I'd rather get the real deal including the rear. LOL

How does everyone like the EX line though??

I think the EX line is sick! I like it better than the V4 (no offense Cali, Ryan) because, IMO, the EX front bumper flows better with our cars than does the V4.

Just my opinion.

I like that kit alot, but you need to attend to the slats in the original bumper too if you put this on... looks odd having the original peeking from behind the new. Also, where is the rear bumper/part? Seems kinda unfinished to me.

Wald kits are pretty hot, when they are complete. I would stay away from these non wald kits. the real deal is worth it. My brother bought an evo kit for his 190 years ago, and the thing was crap. Poor fiberglass, finish, etc. He was able to sell it but wow. I would get mad at predominately Asian nations for making this shiet, but Amuricans shur like their stuff cheap before they like it quality.

That's what I think as well. I really like the EX kit since it's just so clean. Driving with the V4 kit would be a ***** since the front bumper is so aggressive and low.

I've been looking into the EX line. Debating whether or not I want to go with the AMG or EX... Black does look sick in the EX. I could get it for around $1400 new from WALD Japan.

So, Does anyone want to buy my AMG sideskirts I bought two weeks ago?

Oh Chris you should be all over the EX line, that would look devestatingly sick on your ride.

It's too bad I can't afford upgrades for a while, otherwise I would plan on updating the wagon to a more classy style...

how much did you pay for the sideskirts??

PS: why is it taking so long to post on this god forsaken board????

Yeah, I'm definitely going to look into it!

I paid $200 for the sideskirts. I'll sell them for the same price or a little less. I need to get rid of them for personal reasons.
