The front doesn't fit great either.

I heard the rear was worse.


Nice kit, but take it to a bodyshop that has either done the kit before or is used to making adjustments on body kits.

A standard body shop is used to parts fitting like OEM parts and will not be happy dealing with such issues, especially if it they are using more labor time than estimated. Make sure your shop understands this.

Bottom Line ?

Some people are more picky about the fit than others, so you need to decide what you can live with or what you are willing to pay to get it right.

great point about individuals perception...


i had the rear & it was not perfect... .but it still looked great & i could deal with it.. . hardly any one ever noticed the issues... but for he hard core .netters at local Meets... who were looking to see how it fit based on the fitment issues reported....


the rear is usually the biggest problem while i have seen great looking Lsportline froints .. .the rears always had some fitment issue i never saw or talked with ONE owner that did not have a problem there...


good luck!!
