SC IM GLAD TO SEE YOUR KIT FIT PERFECTLY HOWEVER 99.8% (SINCE I SEE ANOTHER GUY FIT FINE ALSO) DO NOT HAVE THE SAME LUCK FROM THIS CROOKED COMPANY. THERE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU SPEAKS FOR THEMSELVES AND THE WORK TO PUT THIS KIT ON IS RIDICULOUS (THIS IS COMING FROM SOMEBODY THAT HAS BODY WORK EXPERIENCE), HENCE THE KIT IS NOT MADE AS STRONG AS THE REAL THING, HENCE A MINOR TAP ON THE VIS WILL RESULT IN MUCH MORE DAMAGE THAN THAT OF A REAL VERTEX KIT.

I'm not knocking what you have, your car looks tight, but please don't make people believe that VIS is a good company, THEY ARE NOT!!!

Ummm Did I miss something here???
All I said was whoo hoo that was my car when someone posted a pic of it. Also my kit does not fit perfectly... I had to modify them. Also this is not a weak kit... I've given it a good beating... I scrape everywhere!

I didn't mean anything towards SC (that's why I mentioned I'm glad he had luck with this company). I just wanted to make any people interested well aware of VIS and how they operate. Because, after speaking with about 10 people I have only heard of 2 that had luck with them and from other threads I see that there are many other unsatisfied people (WHO NEVER GET REFUNDED EITHER). Just wanted to clear that up.

me and all my friends buy our kits from vis. they treat us fine. blade, i think the body shop did not know how to install the kit. because you have to take off the factory mouldings behind rear wheels, to fit the rear bumper on or bumper will seem to be 2inches too short. the mouldings on both the side have to be popped off to put kit on ..the kit was easy to put on. just gotta know how..the price goes up and down , only because they know that you have been calling them like every day asking the same thing,,HOW MUCH AND WILL IT FIT thats why they give you a high price . dont ask till you ready to buy then the'll hook you up.
the money i saved by buying copy, i had my door handles shaved and door poppers

If you want the real thing for cheap (or anything else from JP) you could try the Japanese version of eBay:

http://www.bidders.co.jp/

Sure you probably can’t read it or understand how to contact the seller, but the prices are great!

go to Skrperformance.com. They have the BN kit and if I'm not mistaken they wanted 2080 for it (which isn't that bad of a price). But, that is also not including shipping (call them for shipping price).
