It wasn't too bad, but aware that you will have to test fit and drill the holes to be able to bolt it on to the bumper. Be careful since the little tabs you have to drill are very small and you can break them very easily while installing the screws, I did break one and had to make me a new bigger one out of fiber glass.

All I have to say right now is don't expect perfect fittment on the VGs. I helped my brother install his yesterday and he had the same problems I did where the front lifts up and looks like this:

They are replacement for the covers that came with the vehicle. They completely remove the fabric that comes with the car and replace it with the new leather seats. I know this because I started to take them apart and they do remove the original cloth that comes with the car.

Car looks really nice man....

It sucks to see the fitment issues and troubles you went through but thanks for pointing them out with your tips!

What kind of wheels are those btw?

Your picture here looks different than the one here:



Looks like the original picture had a rubber grommet where the antenna sat on or something? Can you explain a bit? Now its lifting but with no gromett?

The Seibon piece is missing a few of the mounting points that come on the oem front where the grill is held in place. Plese see the circles on the picture below:



The reason why I removed it is to be able to get to the Rexpeed IC side panels to clean them

If you're talking about the diffuser, it's made by Seibon not Rexpeed.
