OEM fiberglass quality is totally diff than aftermarket fiberglass..
OEM - more layer of fiberglass and strong enough to take some dent or against crack
Aftermarket knockoff fibergalss - i just cant stand any scartch and hit, it just too weak. and it break just like a Potato Chips..

Lookum good! Are you going to hang these parts yourself? I noticed that this kit is a Japanese made product, and generally their aftermarket parts are of good quality. Good luck.

From which vendor or website did you purchase your kit. I bought one off eBay. Bad idea. Did not fit whatsoever. You definitely get what you pay for. It was total crap. The rear bumper was almost 6 inches shy from being flush with the trunk. The front was almost 2 feet longer than than it should be. Needless to say, the whole &&^$%&^ thing didn't line up with the body. I've gone through three different body shops, each time finding something wrong again that the shop didn't do right. Someone finally bumped me last month and the kit split in 4 pieces, totally destroying the structural integrity of the kit (can't be repaired). The kit really looked nice on the car so I'd like to purchase the same one again. Your kit looked alot better than the one I bought. I'd be much obliged if you could help me out and perhaps hook me up with a website or number for your kit.
