I know some of you guys have seen shots in the other thread. However I felt the install warrants its own thread. Enjoy

Looks great! Wonder how it would look with the factory bumper? Doesn't look like it's as low as the stillen bumper...

Yea we signed the paperwork for a sponsorship deal on Tuesday. I was really waiting for that before I put anyones stickers on my car. Not really a huge fan of stickers unless they mean something

you signed sponsor paperwork? i would assume that would mean cheap and/or free parts and labor... youve got basically their whole line already though! Whats going to change for you in the future?

Actually I think Stillen has to charge for labor. I don't think there is any way around that. As for the parts, yes I do get a generous discount. We have a good thing going. I'm an avid tuner and stays on the forums constantly, they make the parts. So I can easily get things painted/installed and promote them because I don't have to deal with company paperwork/issues about the situation. It looks like next step is going to be the 4 wheel AP Racing Big Brake kit. Then possibly a spoiler, if one is produced that I like. Then we will start looking into forced induction. The horizon looks pretty bleak right now for the CVT F/I, but we will try to swing something

It was always my take on it that the rear was too good looking for the front, then the fascia came out and the front and rears matched, but the sides were pretty bland. So I think the rockers pull the car together well. The rear "mud flap" thing also gives the rear a more edgy look to match the rest of the car. Maybe pictures don't do it justice?

Guys also to retract my previous statement. Don't take my well being as a shun by any means. I was trying to keep it under wraps but I felt the need for an explanation for the STILLEN logo. STILLEN in no way is putting me before anyone or giving me any special treatment, we just simply have a good thing going as far as photography and me posting on the forum about my successes. So again I apologize if it came off wrong to anyone

Just ordered my skirts today. Should have them by the end of next week

Also ordered a Stillen Banner like Blake's. To me, I don't care about the sponsorship although it would be nice. Great for Blake that he got it! But since I live all the way over on the east coast, I'll be "representing" Stillen from here! Stillen has great products and their customer service is great! A very personable company IMO.

LOL..I guess you saw that thread huh No, she didn't say anything about it. I told her This morning that I was thinking of ordering them today. She said that I should. Besides, We bought the curtains hours before she messed up the bumper. So I guess she felt bad about it.

As for the paint shop..they will strip off the paint and start from scratch. But this time, I'm going to hand them the Stillen Installation Instruction and have them follow it. Goes in next Monday but I won't get the rockers in till the end of that week

Your car looks straight up mean!

Just needs a turbo and the rear valance (if they make one) and it will be all set!

I just ordered the front fascia... Damn you Nico

LOL in all fairness, I don't think she really messed it up, sounds like a bad paint job, but I know what you mean. Good luck with the rockers, but I would like to see some pics if you could be so kind, I also have a red 3.5se and would like to see how it all looks, when you are done.

When you put the new rockers on did you take off the top rock gaurds? If so do they just peel off? I want to take all of mine off but I dont want to try and mess it up.
