bryce the shop may have had to do some modifying to get the fitment perfect, and as for the mounting the shop attached im guessing some weatherstrip and made the necessary holes for some screws/fasteners.

although, if i were you I think I'd leave the painting to the pros and take the mounting on myself wink1.gif

props for painting it yourself..can't wait to see pics when it's all done smile.gif

They had to modify the front quite a bit to get it to fit right. Otherwise i would have done it myself. Also while trying to fit the sides part of it started to crack a little bit so i just let them handle it all and i painted. Yea it sucks but i didnt want to ruin a new kit paint can be done and redone body parts are another story!
