Extreme Dimension Mazdaspeed Urethane Body Kit...

Obviously I'm a moron who can't read, but what I meant to say was, what is the general opinion of Extreme Dimensions Body Kits?

My shop is trying to convince me to go with one of these replica urethane MS kits, rather than just going with the original OEM front and rear bumpers after an accident I had.

What is the general consensus about Extreme Dimensions body kits?

save the hassle get the OEM Mazdaspeed. you would have to pay the body shop the difference in price to get the replica to fit well.

i have always heard that Extreme Dimension kits are crap.

i also highly recommend a genuine MS kit. i purchased an Au-To Bahn replica from shine, and the body work to make it right is costing way way way too much. kind of wish i had just gone with a genuine mazdaspeed kti

all ED kits fit like total crap, they try to replicate the real kits instead of actually trying to fit the kit itself

buy real or don't buy at all

you WILL spend more than the factory mazdaspeed kit just to get the ED kit to look somewhat decent

tell your friends, never buy ED

100000000% correct sir, worst kit/company in the business, period. Although they are fabulous at merchandising, don't believe the hype and don't even waste half a penny on any of their..ahem..products. I'd stay stock before going with them, if you'er pondering a kit, the ONLY way to go is authentic, even decent replica's are still replica's, and they're stealing money out of real companies that have gone through the time and money to produce a better fitting and higher quality product.

I find the name "Extreme Dimension" to be a little lame and cheesy, lol.
