Both but like you I kind of got a "hook up". But I will say that 450 is rape

Looks nice! Definitely does need a drop though. I bought mine with the coil overs so any car with stock suspension just looks high but it's probably normal to you ha

O believe me you, it doesn't look normal? lol. My last car was 95 vw Jetta vr6 that was slammed. Soon as it's nice out after this coming winter, I'm dropping it and maybe a new front bumper.

I was asking around shops that do wrapping and a few said the trim around the windows tend to roll up and peel off over time and they did not recommend doing it. How has the wraps held up on those who got the window trim done?

Also, I was told if you get any gloss black wrapping, the material gets swirl marks after a couple car washes. Anyone know if this is true??

Mine is holding up just fine. It peels slightly on the curve around the rear window but the guy who did it just cut and patched it.. cant notice and wont happen again.

he used rubbing alcohol on the aluminum trim first and then applied the vinyl.. its been sticking great for me and my friend has had it even longer and his looks just as good as it did day 1... i think its just the quality of vinyl and who does it
