          It looks nice. Like some people said, the MT2 may look a bit better being a bit lower.

              I don't think I'm feeling the mt2 valence in front. And I think the rake needs to be evened out somehow.

                So the rear isn't low enough?

                    They are kopis, no?

                    As far as the rake, I don't know what everyone else is going for, but I think the rear would need to be raised a little and the front lowered, and if the rear couldn't be raised just to lower the front a little bit more.

                      They look like legitimate Alpinas.

                      The rake is an illusion due to the lower front valence... the car is actually very even-stanced from what I can see. To pull off the front valence, it definitely needs skirts. And to have skirts, it definitely needs a rear valence.

                      Without the full kit, it will look like the original Alpinas - more or less like a plow.

                        Wheel gap isn't even though. I think what most people is getting at is the front needs to come down a bit.

                          It's coming along. The front valence will look better with sideskirts imo. Pick up "is" skirts.

                            Wheel gap looks even to me. Looks like he's got camber plates up front (because the rears look less cambered out than the fronts), so that may be messing with the way the front wheels look. If anything, putting the rear wheels 1cm further out would be good.

                            However, my judgement may of course be wrong, I'm not a stancepert.

                              Can't tell if you were joking or not, but imo it looks like the rear is tucking and the front has a noticeable gap.

                              So I could a) lift the back, b) lower the front or c) do both. I'd probably lower the front noticeably and lift the back slightly with the addition of spacers.

                              Or just roll it how it is to save money because there is nothing wrong with it.

                                Ahhh, I was trying to count the spokes.

                                Like you say, to pull of the valance, it needs the entire kit. Which is one of the problems with the MT2 kit, nothing on it can really stand alone. FWIW I am not a fan of any of the MT2 pieces, so I may be biased.
