damn I'm going through the same thing with an rd1 cuda kit. Although I think mine may ( I stress MAY) be an original. I went over mine to see if it had those bubbles in the fiberglass and I didn't find any. I got mine from a guy that said he bought it a long time ago but then totaled his tib before he ever put it on. It also came with the Mobis foglights that were made specifically for the cuda kit. I may have lucked out big time if so.
Does anyone have pics of the front bumper install for this kit? I'm gonna use those pics of the sides to direct my guy on how to do it right. Thanks spiffy.

 

There is no Original Cuda for the RD1. Anything made for the RD1 was made by Import Trendz using an Original Cuda C1 --- for an RD2.

Cool about the Fog lights. Yes, you can still get those from Korea. If you guys want the part number, I can get them. They are like $50.00 each shipped from Korea through Shark Racing. I have ordered a few of them from John. Arrived about 2 weeks after I ordered each time.
