I ordered a hood and trunk from them. They jerked me around for like 2 weeks, always telling me it was coming in the next day and they wouldnt give me a tracking number. Finally i got it 3 weeks after i was supposed to. The cf weave on the hood and trunk have a few imperfections, and according to the body shop at AMS (who i had install it) the trunk fit like absolute crap, so they had to modify it a lot to get it to fit, which wound up costing me quite a bit. At least they gave me a good deal on all of it. I will personally never order anything from them again, and I have persuaded a few other people to do the same.

it will require two people to install. One to hold the lip to the bumper nice and tight....the other to drill the mounting holes. Very easy with two people...impossible with one.

There lips seem to be pretty good, my friend has one and its excellent fitment. The bumpers I don't know about but if they need a lot of prep work you are going to end up paying more in the end anyway. I say if you go for a lip go SC if you go for a bumper get the real deal.

honestly,
TRUNK: we carry VIS, SEIBON and generic brand. None of them fit like oem. Generic will be the best fit, but again will not like oem-fitment. Its cheaper price, lightest and comes with pre-drilled key holes.

Body kit:
Depend on which one, but the fitment should be about 9/10, yes u need adjustment no matter what (even the original parts need that) but you will not goona spend more than $200.00 to prep them. Average $50.00-$80.00 to prep.
$200.00 to install, prep and paint (local in socal) per pieces.

Example: real c-w..t cost $700.00 for the front bumper
Our cost $200.00 for the front bumper
To get it fix cost $100.00 (mostlikely it will be less) saving of $400.00

Carbon fiber hood (VIS and Seibon) fitment should be no problem
Carbon fiber lip, if you buy it (after febuary 05 we improved it) the fitment should be 9.9/10 (PERFECT)
Quality compare with the original will be 9/10

Thanks for the input, please DONOT USE THIS THREAD TO BE FLAME-CONTEST.

my evo ix lip i bought from them fits and looks very well. ive gotten tons of compliments and not 1 negative comment.

i think some of you guys are just nit picking this poor company.

I dont recall any other company that will come out and actually highlight their flaws in a product they are trying to sell.

They dont try to hide anything. They dont sell you something saying its 100% perfect then you find out other wise.

Some have higher expectations then others but no matter what its an aftermarket product 9 out of 10 times it will never be like OEM.
