Beautiful car!
I have the exact same front, splitter and am about to mount the same side rockers.. :-)

What's going on in the rear, is that a modded bumper cover?

The rear piece is an add on from a company called GT3TEK . It came all black I had a local body shop paint it to match the car but left it black on the diffuser portion . In my opinion it really cleans up the look at the rear and adds a little sporty look to it . I also color matched the bumper pieces on either side of the license plate . The diffuser add on was easy to install , it came with 3M double sided tape installed from the vendor along the top edge . Clean your OEM bumper and pull about an inch of the tape cover off so it is visible . Align the cover and push it into place and slowly peel the tape backing away while pushing on the cover . When all tape has been exposed the body shop guys installed a couple of screws at the front edge behind the rear wheels . Been on the car for several years with no issues .
