If so, can I see some pics? I really want to get these but arent sure what it would look like in real life. Pics of a Black Mica car would be best but Im not too picky.

Thanks
 
I took some pics of a graphite that the dealer had installed. I'll try to post them up when I get home tonight.

Pro's
- doesn't look "tacked on" like a lot of front lips do.
- comes factory painted
- lines match up with the sideskirts
- squares off the front and rear bumpers (they don't appear as round)

Con's
- expensive ($500 for the front lip alone)
- Install requires drilling into the bumper, and removing bumper
- lowers clearance on front of the car

The rear I thought was ok, but not extremely necessary to be honest.
 
Here you go as promised. I didn't get pics of the rear because someone was about to test drive it and I didn't think it was appropriate to buzz around the car!

Oh man that looks hot. THANKS!

Edit: Does the rear aero lower the look of the rear at all to match the sides? I noticed there is a rather large difference in clearance between the rear bumper and the sides.

Yes, it perfectly matches the lines of the sideskirts.

I'm sorry I didn't get pictures of the rear. To be honest, there really isn't much to it - 3 pieces, 2 in the corners, and 1 strip in the middle. It's more of a bumper protector than an appearance package, it seems. They could've done much more w/it.
