Installed the SSG GV replica lip today. Overall, I give the fit about a 7.5 out of 10. Paint match was perfect despite a couple of areas that there was a small run in the clear coat.

On with the pics. As for how the front of my car looks, with the K-Mac camber plates in, I actually gained about 1/8th of an inch in height. I have revised plates on the way that will eliminate the height change, but for now here it is:

This side is my biggest issue with the overall fitment

unsightly gap on the pass side

New profile.

Once I get the revised camber plates installed I plan on taking some more pics, for now, let me know what you think!

Jeezey creezey, that's hot. Are those giant horns I see behind the lower grille?

You should get some coil sleeves for the adjustable ride height if 1/8 inch bothers you that much.

No... Behind the lower grille are a pair of Hella Black Magic driving lights.

I am not worried about the ride height, because I have a revised pair of camber plates on the way. K-Mac sent me a prototype set, so based on some of my feedback, they have made some revisions including removing an 1/8th of an inch from the spring perch.

You could just ask me.... LOL

I picked it up on e-bay about a month after I bought my car. I beleive it is off of one of the lower trim level hatches from either Austraila or Japan.
