Have experience with what? Cheap copy bodykits?

LOL

A LOT of folks do. That's why they have the rep. Most of these guys don't work for car or parts companies so they have no money to make either way, fact is though, crap copies are just that. Copies.

how about a place such as grounddynamics or extremedimensions.

They have knockoffs, but they are actually a business for body kits and etc. Not just mold makers.

a friend of mine bought a kit off extremedimensions for his Prelude, it was the biggest piece of crap, it didnt fit right, the side skirts kept falling off, stay away from the knockoffs, just dish out the extra cash to get a real one that won't have any of these issues.

One of the guys here bought a kit off of extreme dimensions my man.

Look up a member named EC CUstoms. Then check out the bodykit.

Bring a barfbag.

How about this:

My CLOSE friend, who I hang with ALL the time, has the VS knockoff. It had to get special fitting and still didn't come out perfect. I'm not saying the shop was great though since the paint didnt match.
After the first week, he hit a board in the road and the kit disintegrated.

He got it fixed again. Another 3 weeks go by and he hit a tire tread from a truck. It blew the front bumper into pieces, and tore a chunk out of the rear.

These are obsticles that would not tear apart an OEM piece. Do you really think you can avoid hitting everything?


I hate that f-ing kit. Even if it was VS. He has stock suspension and 17's. He has to go 2mph over every bump so he doesn't scrape. He always lags behind everyone else because of this. The kit literally hovers 2-3 inches off the ground on all sides. Remember, STOCK suspension. Do you really think speedbumps are lower than that?

well good luck on it hope its worth it, i got a veilside kit on mine, magic said it looked fake but i dunno it has the veilside logo under the front bumper i didnt check the other parts (just because i only took off the front bumper to put the turbo on) but i payed like 1200 for mine fits perfect ive crushed my front bumper a few times and hasn't cracked or chipped yet but ..... magic is right and i see more and more of these knock off kits at shows with like enough room to put a pack of cigarette's where the headlights meet the bumper horrible looking and side skirts just hanging there just a warning dont wanna see any1 get screwedlot of money to waste
