Yea the body shop doing the work is one of the best, but if the fitment sucks it will be alot of money to make it right.

Well. I talked to the shop today. Front bumper is done and installed and we are waiting on the front air plate that covers the bottom and forces the air up into the radiator.

They did not do the rear because it would involve heavy modding of the rear bump to make it fit and would cost me more than the entire rest of the original work cost to make it 100%.

So hoping to have it back Thursday or Friday morning.

Well the front ended up fitting very well, with the exception of the left front turn signal stick out a little. I should have it fixed up by next week.

The rear piece not even close. It would have cost me a ton to have it custom fitted.
I am going to contact the place I got the kit from and see if they have a different read bumper.
