Default My Wald Body Kit

Hey hey,

I get my Wald Body Kit back from the paint shop tomorow. Should I be able to install it myself, or should I take it to a professional shop to do it? I'd like to do it myself, but I don't know how hard/complicated it is to do. Can anybody give me a heads-up?

Thanks, and I will post pictures ASAP once the kit is installed.

-Jason

Install it by your self if you have a skills. I did mine Erebuni kit, but it will depends how perfect are the dimensions.
I have to do a lots of tweaking. I have a lift also, if you get to the trouble working on the ground or jacks it will be a pain.

Any of the reputable companies that I spoke with in the past always always recommended professional installation...(people who are used to installing body kits, not just a back yard body shop.)

Is your Wald kit an original or copy? A copy won't fit as well as the original without some trimming and tweaking in most cases.

Good Luck.
