Its not really a kit, i bought all the pieces separately.

Front bumper is original from s6 in carbon fiber
Rear bumper original from s5 in fiberglass
bonnet vents and side skirts from yuriy Antonenko
Front wings cheap auction in ebay, are made in kevlar, really good purchase
Rear quarter panels from ABW, fiberglas with carbon fiber reinforcement layer
And the rear spoiler another cheap piece from ebay, too much work to make it fit in the car but the results i thinks its very good

Im very lucky to find the original bumpers and wheels, in my humble opinion the result is very good.

The final touch will be the S6 front lip, and i have one but its too low and the car does not enter in the garage hehe.

Thanks for the interest

Spoke to Yuriy a few times , very helpful , and enthusiastic guy , if you ever need any parts , try Jamie from The Project , expensive parts as they are made in Carbon fibre , but everything is a perfect fit , the only part he didn't supply was my rear spoiler , that was supplied by Rallytech , and was a lot of work to make it nice

Different strokes for different folks I guess... I had them on a previous car and didn't think they were all that bad. Although, with the steering wheel on the wrong side in Spain you really will need good mirrors! LOL
