Ordered it from Extreme dimensions for 399 + 100 for SH, had the thing shipped to the philippines too. cost me another 200.
anyway here are some observations and answers to some of the questions I've seen on the board.
1. The thing is f&^%ing tough, its made by GTP aka importfan.com and its the blue class fiberglass. The thing is at least 3/8" thick and there's plenty of material to be grounded/sanded/trimmed to get a good fit.
2. the front is stock height, its not lower by and inch and is the same height as the stock smiley bumper, scome to think of it, all kits need this stock height to be able to bolt to the bottom of the car.
3. it comes primered already but of course some sanding is needed to get it nice and smooth.
4. It comes with diamond wire mesh, which I'll replace because the mesh is too big for me, the holes are about 1.2" wide.
here's the part where i need suggestions
for the rear bumper, the bodyshop guy told me that something has to be taken out, like bumper support at the bottom or something, I know that in the front something has to be taken out, he said that it's for protection in case of a crash.
also the skirts look like they have to trimmed off to fit
any other things I should look out for?
