The gp kit comes with full fitting instructions - take it nice and slow you'll be fine doing it. Very straight forward just make sure you have a very large dust sheet under the front of the car to stop any scrapes when fitting. I posted some scans up of the instructions if you want to see what's involved first.

Had mine fitted friday on the champ white looks , I purchased from cox and got my honda dealer to fit it for £203 was going to fit it myself but bottled it good job as well as it rained friday, bloody street party on saturday and the rain is here for a while, taking a while to grow on me but im liking it more and more, and as i've read on here and my dealer said as well it does sound like the GP pack will be discontinued.

Get some black hammerite on that tow-hook, it'll look perfect then

Had mine fitted on my CW last week they look really nice on the white, and looking at your picture of how the rear is fitted would explain why i've now got uneven joins on panels, i looked out the other night and could tell the rear wing didnt look right went out in the morning gave it a push and it popped right back in, and mine was fitted by HONDA everytime i use this dealer the more i get annoyed with them i read bad things about them and should of listened really.

I fitted my GP kit today, all in all wasn't too bad as I've had the bumpers off before for other bits - was a little annoyed that I'd reassembled the front but forgotten to reattach the fog light connectors

No worries on the towhook then - I just noticed after fitting my rear that it looked a little odd but if you've got a Tegiwa one en-route then no point painting it

Would of been nice if the exhaust triangles came already on the splitter my dealer didn't even think about giving them a quick polish so they shine to match, mine look slightly grubby. Tow hook i was going to paint mine black but will now wait till you stick some pictures up of yours
