Default Ebay Aero Kit

Has anyone ever tried an aero kit like this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fits-15-17-...nd!85266!US!-1

Pretty economically priced. I'm sure the quality would never match up to something like a NIA kit, but has anyone tried this?

I have the real version of that kit on my car and I would say the sides would probably be ok. But the front and rear might take a bit of messing with just because those need to line up with factory holes.

^^ Nice! I am usually not a non-OEM kit kind of guy but this gives the RC a nice stance. BTW, how do you like your TOYO?

OP, I bought that same exact kit from the same exact seller, fitment is dead on! I bought two sets, one for my car and one for my wife's. I am letting the sideskirts go for cheap if you're interested, brand new in the box. PM me!

here's a pick of mine with the aero kit. The front bumper is a bit of a pain to get on but if you have a lift and a helper you could probably install the whole thing in about 1-2 hrs

Any drilling required? Fits perfectly for all front, sides, and rear?

The entire kit fit perfectly. I would rate the all around fitment 9 out of 10 if not almost perfect. You do have to drill your own holes (or have any reputable body shop do it) but it is not a big deal whatsoever. For the price, the minimal adjustment that's required was worth it for me (bought the kit twice for both of my RCs).

I am looking to get the same one. I find it hard to justify spending thousands on something that will get jacked up and need to be replaced. Plus few people have this one compared to the NIAs, Lexon, etc out there.

That was my same debate. Looks great painted and installed on the car.

Yeah sorry about that. Not painted, that’s just the finish it comes with.
