Good point, these parts aren't cheap to begin with. I have a full front PPF now including the mirror caps. I definitely would have to factor that in. If I went the RW or Autoteknic route and did everything, it's like $3,000. That ain't gonna happen. Even $1,000 for the side skirts is tough to rationalize.

Hoping the final piece of my exhaust ships this coming week like it's supposed to. It will give me something else to focus on!
