| Its fair to say that 99% of kits will not fit 100% perfectly and need a little work, it depends on the condition of the car the kit was designed on, how well the kit was designed. if its been stored at a funny angle (fibreglass and eurethane will warp over time), all sort of factors count. Kits are easy to fit as they are ply-able so you can massage them into shape for your car. Just take your time. |

| UnitedRidaz C.C. | Does it really matter then what type of kit you get then?? Wings west brags that they will fit exact...BUt if all are somewhat off i could get away with a cheaper one...Really deciding on whether to get one this week and try to install myself or what?? So many choices and im not familiar with the names of these kits |

| buy the kit you want then when you get it, offer it up to the car and decide wether you can manage it or if you should take it to a bodyshop. If you do it yourself, fit the kit up, then take it off and paint it before re-fitting, dont paint it first. [ August 16, 2002: Message edited by: Unity_Jon ]</p> |
