Hey, at least the grill position on this knockoff is in the right place....

Now the other vertex knockoff with the grill sitting 3 inches too high was a REAL joke. Gave me giggles every time someone posted it up here.

I have a customer in Robertsonville, NC that should be receiving his kit soon, I'll post pics as soon as he installs it so I can show you the fitment.

We sell the SC300 SC400 wide body kit here as well as the parts individually.



(the front bumper looks funky in the picture, it's not deformed it was just underneath a lot of parts in the container so it wasn't in its proper shape when it was pulled out to take the pictures, fitted on the car it is fine, I should really replace that picture with another one)
Rear overfenders nice. I was bout to buy the k&m missles for 1k! Will these work with stock body cars like the k&m? Also what's the added width? Thx

Very interested in seeing actual pics on a car. Im like the looks of the kit, but I have only seen a few SC's with wide body that I have liked.

I remember seeing that one knock off. That kit cracks me up every time I see it. It looked ridiculous.
