Cong how much did your body shop charge you to paint and install the front end? I just spoke with a body shop and they told me fiberglass fitment is not always the greatest and it takes more work to have em fit right. The kit is fiberglass , right?

JYOO,

I believe "fiberglass" has been mentioned lots of times in this thread. Basically nobody makes kit in Poly except RMM, Lsportline, TTE, GReddy, and AC.

I haven't seen any fiberglass kit without any alternation even if it's top quality. Just a personal experience.

fiberglass is easy to modify/paint, it would cost a lot less to paint them compared to polyutherine. (after having Lsportline/explosions) The explosion kit fits almost perfect, about 1xx times better than Lsportline's.

just FYI

but Revolution kit fits like a loose sock.

Their wing is the only thing that fits right.

Seems like imitation Explosion fits alot better than imitation Win.Racing.

I know this old but after doing major searching

for a rear bumper ...i was able to find a explosion style rear bumper real cheap

and rather than start a new thread i figureded i piggyback this one

looking at Cong's kit it look real good and from what he says fitment was good

anyone else ever get an explosion style kit ??

really want to make sure on this before go thru the trouble of putting it on ...

You are not the ATB for nothing.

I think 00lexondub's kit is not the true Explosion either. You can ask him too.
