KillaPapi85 12-18-2008 08:18 AM

aww man.. I bought it from ebay.. it's duraflex.. I didnt get the whole kit, just the sideskirts... Why are they bad... ?

Because it doesn't fit well with the car. A lot of labor has to go into it, which means giving more money to the shop. In the end, it'll never be a perfect fit. Just more money off your end. You should look into getting authentic parts in the future.

I have a huge issue with companies like this, they took me for a ride 3 years ago, and they rip off countless others every frickin' day. :squint:

I might mention knockoff materials are utter shit, I see people all the time saying how their's "fit perfect" or whatever, well great, even if it fit half way decent it's still not going to hold up as well as the real deal, and you're still throwing a 50 dollar piece of poorly made plastic with no RnD whatsoever on a 30k sports car, when for just a little more (or alot, like it matters :rolleyes:) you could have had MUCH better results and the piece of mind of knowing you supported a legit company with a superior product. I'm not trying to be an ass or insult you or anything, I'm merely saying this to you and to anyone who sees this thread:

You get what you pay for in bodykits

If it's cheap, it's cheap for a reason, a shortcut was taken somewhere, whether it's fitment, materials, manufacturing, or all of the above, trust me, they cut a corner some where.

Man I hate seeing people get ripped off by companies like this :icon_no2:

Good luck with it, maybe you can get a refund and just save up and buy the real deal.

GOt a pic to show the fitment?

if you can do your own body work you could make a toilet seat blend in nicely and match the body lines, that doesnt speak to the quality of the kit just the skill of the guy holding the bondo.
