Bought parts of an incomplete aero kit from a member on this forum, and filled in the gaps from Justin at Sewell Mini. Total parts cost me 1200 total, plus 100 to paint the side pieces, and spent a few weekends putting everything on.

I think de-chroming with blue would look slick. Plasti Dip does make a blue!

Found it on amazon. Com $159 with free shipping! It's heavy duty and worth it! The rails are factory! It's a no name made in china... I believe on the site they say its a Thule but its not!

At my local body shop - it was a dead match and looks great. I'll probably be going back to him for the headlight/taillight rings.

Maybe this has been asked but what did you use to paint the calipers?! Was that your local body shop?
Been thinking about doing mine in surf blue.

I used Duplicolor Paint - you can get it anywhere. However they have 5 colors and their blue just happened to match True Blue.
