i have a jblood kit on right now with a kouki jdm rear bumper. You'll either need to buy brackets for the rear bumpers or custom fab some.

Here's a jdm rear bumper with j-blood "fins":

Dont by the VTX kit from Chasers. Thats my advice, Poor quality and my rear bumper is stretched to make it fit. I am not a happy camper with them.
I like cars, food, and puppies.

Damn straight on both accounts. Jblood or OEM sideskirts are nice, Im probably gonna switch to them and dump my current ones.

Run Free is $$$$ and hard to find, but very nice.
