Yes my sideskirts and rear end is by Street Scene. The side skirts are the bomb. They required very little prep to get ready and actually less than the Cervini polyurethane parts, according to my bodyman. The rear valance seemed a little flimsy..but it is just a piece you slap on the rear .

Thanks for all the help guys. I think I'll run by the body shop tomorrow and get some prices on painting. I really want to see how much it would cost to get the side exhaust done. I'm not too attached to my V6 exhaust setup so that isn't holding me back it's the money issue. I'm looking at a lot more in parts alone but I may be able to cover for that. It's the labor issue that scares me. I'll probably end up going with the street scene route but you never know...
They both look awesome IMO.

S Scene material is more user friendly.
My duck tail has shrank a tiny bit in the FL sun, I noticed that the other day.
It's hardly noticeable so I'll let it slide for now...

So, I got a broad quote on painting, they said around $350-$400. and about the same for installation, if I end up having them do it.
Haven't gotten by the muffler shop yet to see about the exhaust option.
But, I'm kind of second guessing myself. I showed some of my friends the pics and some thought it was sweet, but a few think it looks better stock. I know it's my car but I just wanted some more opinions.
So, stock or the setup I'm looking at now (either one of them, for that matter)?
Also, as my DD, how will the bottom of my car fare being so low to the ground. Should I do anything to help with the scraping issue? Will I notice the damage?
Thanks,
