Arrow unkown body kit identification help!

they're pics off the cx racing coilovers sold on ebay




love the kit, not as aggressive as the vertex and not as boring as the stock 97+. Its a good middle ground. Currently have a vertex lip kit for my stock 97+ bumper and It sits too low for my daily driving

It looks like vertex all the way around i (or rep) with improperly installed skirts. They sat them flush instead of flaring them out.

thats the crazy thing i have the vertex lip kit for th 97 sc, the 97 vertex front lip sits under the bumper which matches the flared out vertex sides, with the way the lip is mounted now the side skirts should sit lower than the bumper

the rear looks like a vertex rear,

Sideskirts do look improperly installed. If you look at the 2nd picture, it's slanted at an weird angle. Front lip looks like vertex but they installed it a bit too high

looks wierd like the whole front end has taken a hit, the headlight doesn't seem to line up well and seems like everything is sitting higher? pretty close to a vertex if not a vertex.

Looks like the front lip is made for a pre 97 front. Doesn't look right at all.
