so there's a lot of talk about kits that don't fit well... replicas as well as originals.

i was wondering if it's just a matter of fiberglass then sanding.

or if there's a specific procedure based on where the fitment is off

i'd rather spend my time than money giving it to a body shop

also if it's just fiberglass that's needed, then any tips/tricks on working with it?

Wanna fill 0.5"x 6" holes along the side markers?
Or 2" off for side skirts?
How about 1" shorts on both side for rear bumper?

I paid $2700 and waited 3weeks for front to be color matched and installed....
The rest are still waiting for more $.

After a month, front bumper start to crack because the retainer bends the bumper to fit.

By far for my car, this is the most regret mod I have ever.
Dam you Extreme Dimension. I should have found this forums before I bought it.

if you've never done body work of any kind, starting on fixing a bad fitting kit isn't the best place.

Some issues can be as simple as a little bit of filler and then smoothing it out. Others can be warping and kits not lining up at all that require cutting of the kit and major reworking.

woah sounds rough. best bet is to save even more money and buy the original and hope it fits perfectly huh
