Lets just say....u get what u pay for. The best body kits for the price seem to come from a company called Extreme Dimensions. But all "cheap" body kits r goin to have fitment issues

youll spend more time making it fit than you would working to pay the cost differences. if youre good with glass and body work go for it.

The problem with buying thing on Ebay, is you don't know made them half the time. The prices sometime are beyond super cheap because the part they are selling was possibly a throw away item.

If you buy an item on Ebay, its not Ebay brand. It could be AIT being sold by a vendor on ebay. Do your research on a brand and look for it. I would buy from a preferred/forum vendor to support our community anyways and you will get the correct product. The quality of that item is all on its own lol

Typically when you buy composite products, they will always require some sort of work. How much is determined by each individual piece. They are made by humans

I don't have any experience with ebay kits, but I've heard way too many bad stories about them and just enough to make me go for the authentic stuff or go for a knock off brand that makes GOOD products such as Auto Shine.

After reading a few pages from the body kit/hood/other sticky....not a single person had an ED kit. A few people seemed satisfied with the VIS kits. I was thinkin of saving my pocket change for the VIS V-Speed Widebody kit. Ill read more of the body kit post later to see if somebody has a review on all the components. Thanks for the thread link OLT

One thing you should always remember is that we will always stand behind any product we sell. If you experience any fitment problems I will swap out the piece for you at no additional costs to you. So we pay for the shipping back on the defective piece and we pay for shipping the new piece out to you. It's a win win deal, don't you think? If you are interested, please get in contact with me and I will give you an outrageous price on it.
