Rear and sides are AIT knockoff, front is authentic, had to remove the crash bar. The AIT parts just needed a little bit of work, but wasn't bad trying to fit it, the legit front was pretty much perfect.

Haha yeah he's my friend, he has my wheels on, these are your old set lol.

Thanks. And nah just wet sanded on the outside of the lens and polished them.

Haha yeah I'm getting the front repainted. I got it this way.

Like I said above, didn't take much to fit them, just a little bit of shaving here and there for the rear and sides, the front I just slapped right on.

Nope didn't get it from fenderub. Picked it up in LA from another user, 24boosted, and got it painted.

Car looks great man, Only reason I said what I said is because gods gift to the SC world here was getting on you for orange peel... when you can see white in all his jam's and around the weather striping.


Love the car man, Others take notes
