Very nice, we share the same color and year birds. I had that Wings West air dam too but I just took it off, how did you mount yours? With the supplied screws and tape or did you add anything else to hold it securely? I did not like the gaps between the bumper and the air dam, looked good just poor fitment, IMHO.

PS what size and brand were the black rims and tires?

Hey man, great looking hawk you got, the WW kit took a little work for good fit, i bought another screws and also used a better tape, the tales on the rear bumper i used tape and sikaflex, the black rims on the top pics are 18" Boss it was 275 rears and 245 fronts, now its on 18" Ruff racing 10" rears 8.5" front
