Tsunami body kit?

I've read a few posts about this kit, and it looks rather sick for a good price. Fitment is supposedly really well, does anyone have this kit or heard anything about it?

They're crazy sexy. and realllly aggressive. I feel like its unacceptable to have one unless you're sporting an intercooler.

Yes I also like most MS, this is exactly according to your requirement and its architect design is also pretty well.

I have this kit its a great fit only minor issue is in the 2 corners where the indicators use to be it tends to pop out so I stuck it with a dab of auto silicon which did the trick .
also its not fibreglass so it doesnt break ive actually had someone back into me wrecking there rear bumper and slightly scratching mine it flexed in and out.

I still look at it and think hell yeah thats my car other kits are nice but not many have character.

Because I live in the Midwest and would need to take it to the coast?

lol this is super late but the tsunami kit fit awesome. I had it back in 04 and it was urethane, i hit a few things and still looked perfect (minus the spider webbing paint at the bottom)

its been a longgg time since i was in the 8 game but i knew that bumper^^^ mint blue and the ings kit were my other 2 favorites!!

To all you guys who have the tsunami styles kit, how did you mount it? Particularly the side skirts? I'm not really much of a 3M tape guy so im curious to see how it was done. Thanks

I screwed either end and underneath with black self taping pan head screws then used an auto silicon like tiger seal to glue it on.

Is self tapping screws the way you guys figure to go? Trying to get as clean of look at possible. Got any pictures of the finished product?
