^werd on that

Authentic is the only way to go. You're taking 100% risk if you buy knock-off for quality and fitment issues.

I'm suprised people actually voted for being suprised that a knock off kit doesn't fit.

I wish people would search!!! There's a whole post about how I had to take vertex to small claims to get my cash back because they sold me crap!! Kind of like what's on your car!! Call them up, tell them you ordered a kit for the sc and whatever they sent you can't be it cause it doesn't fit. Tell them to either send something that fits or refund your money. None of this "slight modification" crap

Good luck man!!

Did you buy the authentic VERTEX bodykits that cost about $2000 to $2400? I dont understand why you would be having fitment issues with their kits. Unless you bought a vertex REPLICA bodykit. Which in this case you must always expect fitment issues unless the manufacturer guaranteed you a perfect fitting vertex replica kit. Im planning on purchasing a replica body soon but Im having a professional install it for me because I know I will have fitment issues. You have to think about that.
