Molding the body kit is the way to go! laugh.gif Good choice. I molded my side skirts in and I think it's the best thing I could had done for my kit. Looks so nice, and people think it's stock, plus it really throws people for a loop and they can't figure out what kind of car it is.

I've even had other people who are driving the same year Tiburon as I am come and ask me what kind of car it is. It's so funny! laugh.gif

Your going to enjoy it! Having everyone turn their heads to look at you when you drive by is the best.

I've had my kit for a little over 3 years on the car, and I'm still turning heads daily and get asked what kind of car it is, or given kudos/thumbs up almost daily. laugh.gif

Bad news guys... My car "will" be done by Frieday, as said from the Body Shop. They've been telling me that for the past two weeks, so I dont believe them anymore, and I havent had a chance to go check it out.

One thing I am certain, I WILL be VERY HAPPY when I get it back. But till then, my stomach only aches cause I want it back already!! blowup.gif

Don't worry man. For it to come out right, it takes time. My car was originally supposed to be in the shop for 2 weeks to get my kit put on.

It ended up taking 3 MONTHS! lol. But it was well worth it. It came out perfect.

^^^ Actually i'm not worried, i'm just depressed. I miss driveing my car. The thing is, I dont drive my car, I live it. I've been told that a lot of times, to not be putting pressure on them so they will get the job done right and not to hurry them up cause then they will do it all sloppy and i dont want that, so i'll just have to wait a lil longer.

THEY ENDED UP TAKEING 3 MONTHS?!?!?! Whaaaaaaa! ok, i wont be able to wait that long. I just hope they do it perfect and with good timeing. 02.gif

Well, I would go down there, er up there... w/e but i cant, i work till 2pm and go to school till 8pm so, i really cant go over there. But I really want to go to at least see how it's turning out. Before i left the car with them the owner was the one that gave me an estimate, he said it would be around 4800 to 5000. He also added that the time that would take them would be three weeks, even if they stayed more they would sharge me more than the estimate, HOPEFULLY they wont.

Well, I have to say that I am really happy now. My car got done today and as soon as they told me i got off work, left to class for my grade and took off to the bodyshop to pic it up. I believe they did a really good job on it and it turned out really good. I love the new paint, and Thanks again Mad_John!!

I took some quick pics, later this week i'll take better ones. fing02.gif













Hope every one liked it, well i know one thing, i love it!! And am very happy I have my tib back, damn I missed it.
