Love it. Car looks nice, but as some said: that sideskirts does not match the front and rear lips. It should be much lover, but instead of being flat it would be awesome if it would have the same shape as the tC1 GFX sideskirt

I have been in contact with my sponsor World-Racing aka Descendant. Seibon is one of their sponsors. Seibon told them that it would be another 8 weeks at least and than they would need to test fit it on a car to make sure it fits. This is what I was told last week on Friday.
it's your car, i build my car how i want it. I don't worry about what anyone thinks unless they want to chip in some $$$$.

I talked with them, i think the same day, late in the afternoon. I was told that they were expecting a shipment in 2 weeks and did need a test car for fitment. Either way, winter is here, so i'm not too worried about it. As long as they come through and fix the problem.

Was really only curious about peoples opinion on how it compares to the rest of the cars lines. if it sits lower by much or not by much than the sides, etc. just some information to build what it might look like in my head. (unless they're pics somewhere)

UPDATE
Spoke with Seibon...they're expecting a shipment of side skirts this Friday. They plan to test fit on Saturday with a local tC, and if they fit, will send me out my new ones!!! If this is the case, Seibon plans to make good with me dilemma. I'll update when i actually get them.

FML....just received another email from Seibon. New skirts that they test fitted once again were off. They are going to "remold" the skirts and have to start from scratch. Just keeping you guys that were interested in the full kit updated. Apparently, i was the first purchase in the U.S. so, i'm the dumbo!!! Patience has reared its ugly head but nothing i can't handle with a 1 year old and all. Just venting guys. Thanks for listening!

Fitment was good with front lip and rear lip. Descendant exhaust had to be adjusted with rear lip. Body shop added an extra rubber grommet to drop it a little bit lower than it regularly sits. As far as the side skirts go, not a great fitment as the three holes that are there don't line up with original holes on the car. It is not noticable when doors are closed but it bugs the heck out of me when i open the car doors. I will be calling up the distributor first to see if they can take it up with Seibon. Anyway, here are the pics.

Love your car! But you probably knew that since it's damn close to my car and I'm over here saving my pennies for black 18x9.5 RP01s and looking at the CF lip kit, wondering if the guy I'm going to meet up with could do something similar...

Thanks! I have the the RP01's in that size and i love them. As soon as i drove off the rim shop lot, i could feel the difference in the drive. The weight difference makes the car coast and was braking distance was reduced. Turbo kit is next. Very soon....stay tuned.
