Looks pretty good, but you need to ditch those nasty body side moldings. They ruin the side view IMO.
Jtrain - Those are the Greddy side skirts, i bought the KS rear off a fellow member "marchisano." He didn't like the rear and I liked it, so it worked out great.
Homie - All the parts are authentic, the body shop did absolutely nothing, they just put the bumpers and side skirts on and prepped it and painted it, no mods or fitting required...I was soooo happy. They guy is like "this is a friggin nice kit, we did no modifications, it was all a perfect fit."
The Greddy sides took a few looks to get used to, but I think it will look better once the 19's are on and the car is up another half inch.
Clearance is this...make a fist and hold it vertical, the middle of the bumper clears your fist, the edges don't. I couldn't get out of my driveway!!! I finally found an angle that I can pull of easily. I don't want to worry about scraping and issues that's why I need to get this back up a little bit. I'll get a fulll photo shoot once the wheels get put on and my camber kit is installed.

Where did you buy the kenstyle rear bumper? I tried to order it but u have to buy the whole kit.

CB is one of the better colors for the kenstyle rear. Needs wheels and lose the door guards.

car looks great... i really like the Greddy kit but have stayed away from it b/c of the utter lack of ground clearance, something i need desperately here in NYC
in your 3rd pic it looks like the rear bumper is off where it meets the rear quarter panel... coupin827 had a similar issue with his KS replica rear and the mounting point on the bumper where it attaches to the body needed to be tweaked alittle... 3 pairs of hands, a dremel, and 20 mins had it looking like a factory fit
also, if you ever decide to change up the mesh (silver mesh takes a beating quickly) head over to Customautomesh.com.... the two principles of the company are both G35Driver members and friends of mine, Coupin827 and Diesel1. they have mesh kits pre-cut for various body kits including the Kenstyle and also i believe the Greddy
