I Just ordered the Vertex kit!
Currently i have the INGS kit on my car and i became tired of its look (too agressive). So i went ahead and place the order for the full vertex kit! The rear bumper and sideskirts are already here in the states, however the front is still on the container. once the kit comes in the mail, i will have it installed along with the whole car repainted. so stay tuned!!
|
Congratulations, IMHO this is probably the classiest kit out there for our car.

been a while since I've seen a full Vertex kit on a BB, can't wait to see it once it's completed. (I miss FE3P's car. :( )
did you order from an authorized distributor or go directly to Vertex USA? Can't go wrong either way as there's some great distributors out there and Dat over at Vertex is awesome to work with. I remember test fitting Newcastle's kit when he received it and I was VERY impressed with the initial fitment. If yours is anything like his, be careful around the corner lights as it's a very tight fit. |
I love this kit! Looking forward to the seeing it installed :)

Can't wait for pics of it. I still prefer a MS kit though.

Yeah... there are no real EU distributors.
I'd appreciate any info on where you bought it from etc though, maybe they could skip the "distribution" and have a kit shipped straight to my door from japan saving some money! Thanks and looking forward to seeing your pics! |

unfortunately not. but you're not really missing anything. |
Can I ask you something?
A friend of mine has purchased this same kit, and we were wondering if that crush bar up front had to be removed in order to fit the bumper? We just want to be 100% sure that that's the case (since when test fitting it cause a lot of issues but once we took that bar off it was next to nothing trying to test fit), since it's a safety hazard and it would cause us to find an alternative way to mount it since the threads that are used to hold the stock bumper is on that crush bar itself. |
