My authentic ings+1 kit fits really tight. I have a CL member complained to me that his knock-off ings+1 kit does not fit. The side skirts especially need lots extra work… after all, he stated it was not worth it.

I won’t say all knock-off are bad quality and fit, but chances are you are at higher risk getting screwed.

I think price may not be the panacea in regards to kits. Looks like some fit right and some don't....regardless of price. All I can say is I know 2 people with Extreme Dimensions kits. Myself and another member. Neither of us complained about fitment.
On my SC300, the techs had a heck of a time fitting my Wisesport lip fit. They also had problems getting my cheap rear to fit. They loved this ED kit because there were no alterations required to get any part of it to fit.
You guys do waht u want but I'lll keep using ED if they have something I like.

You know of any other kit that looks similar to the prussian blue kit? I can't believe this kit is over $2k and its only a lip kit. Not like that includes paint matching and installation...

all original jdm lip kits will be in this price range. the only way you can go for cheaper is if you go with knockoffs. and if you think $2K lip kits are expensive, wait till you hear what full bumper replacement jdm kits go for! unfortunately, as the saying goes, you have to pay to play.

Yeah, no joke. Yet, doesn't the jdm lip kits cost near oem bumper prices?
