Whahah yeh let's do that. I think it's time for a sig update.


Okey i know that real VIP is expensieve but i think you can be VIP for less money. So it's probberly better to by real VIP 2nd hand than new knockoff VIP.

Ask me.....

I purchased several kits from AIT none were perfect and learned the hard way.
After thinking I saved on a good replica kit, I thought wrong.
Had to do so much modding to make it fit right and later on being disappointed.

But at the end its up to you, if you have a good body shop and extra cash.
If you end up buying the kit and the the coat is green/blue

I recommend the body shop prep it good, because it peels.

if its a knockoff it will definitly give you trouble fitting as well as cracking in the future.

The the amount of extra money you'll be spending to modify it, get it to fit right and hours of sanding you'll probably end up spending the same amount on the real one. One of my friends with a UCF20 bought a Shine Auto Project kit (rep JP) and has been working on it for weeks and his buddy just bought a real JP kit for a 1GS. a Few days later the 1GS is out the door painted and the 2LS is still in the shop

sorry to hear about your friends troubles on the shine stuff...its not cheap garbage like ait...a kit from shine is 1200+ not 300 bucks. Shines kit(rep AC) fits great on the sc...theres a ton of threads on here with pictures of fitment.
