New Aero and painted sills

Had to post pics of my new Aero, painted sills, shaved "Infiniti" and 06 reverse lamps. Anybody ever try to put vents in the Aero bumper to cool the brakes?

Awesome...that really looks good. Hats off to the painter for matching and blending your paint.

I'm pretty much on the same boat, just saving up the money to buy the front aero piece. If you dont' mind, where did you get it at and how much for the piece and painting.

thanks
mike

Nice job on the car .
Garnet Fire is a sweet color. Everything blends nice together from the new front end, painted sills, wheels and the lip spoiler (is that a UT G2 spoiler?)

how much did you pay for painting, i know this was already asked but you haven't answered.

Also, you should get some mud guards and paint them on the top also. It looks good and makes the lines with the front aero bumper line up better. makes the difference in height of those pieces less noticeable.

nice G

Thanks for the comments. The spoiler is a Civic spoiler off Ebay for $30, painted for another $40. I've had it on for 2 years and the ends started to come up very slightly (not bad for about 40 auto carwashes), so the body shop re-did the 3M trim tape and it looks great again. I got the Aero bumper from Grubbs (talk to Derek), I think they'll knock off 10-15% for us. $650 for install and paint which I wasn't initially too happy with. But I know the front bumper can be a bear and they ended up taking off the rear bumper (as well as sills) for the paint. Have any of you had paint chipping from painted sills. I'm wondering about clearbra on the rock/scuff prone areas.

I had my Aero sides, lower 1/2 of doors, door edges A-pillars, hood, mirros, hood and front end done with 3M clear bra and it has been sooo worth it.
