nothing like the apr.

apr requires that you use their rear bumper for the quarter panel to work. This wouldn't need that. The taillight section is different too. I bet the APR quarter panel is a much bigger piece.

Not gonna deny the fact that this is functional though

Yeah theres a bonding agent that a body shop can use.....but you'll never get it off again so be sure you like it.

hideous and they dont even look like they would provide all much gained clearance. failed attampt at the blister over fenders that are great on rwd cars, but the shape onto the door is horrible. I'd much rather just pull the hell out of the metal ones or bolt on the old school Z or Evo VI style extensions,

Kit just looks so Cheap with the way they attach it but Deff may be something that Racers wanting a little wider stance and without breaking the bank on going wide body could do Wouldn't look good on a Street car with the Rivets showing but on a race car with graphics everywhere I am sure it wouldn't look Bad
