Its only $600 just get the kit and if it doesnt fit then its only $600.

EDIT:

Wait a minute i see what your doing there....


I have these same rear quarter panels on my Evo. Came out perfect but thats because i have a good body guy that did the work. I cant say anything of the rest of the kit but i got the rears to work out just fine. If i didnt tell anyone my rears were replica then noone would know.

Like I said,
get the VIS replica.

Im happy with it. So far, so good. Only light drilling and light plastic work to make sure the bumpers out far enough, nothing cracked, and it looks legit.

Or, even better quality, is the Touge factory parts. But they dont have the rears so I opted for the VIS kit.

Side skirts are legit. The blend in on the back was the body shop. He did it and i was unaware what was going on at the moment. He thought the extra coming out further was wrong and said he was going to work it to fix the problem. So thats the issue with that. Not many people notice it. But it is something that bugs me the most about the kit.

The Demo Speed replica kit would be the best replica out there.

i was just about to say thats the best replica kit. i dont care if its real or replica car ends up looking the same. long as you dont try to pass it off as real who cares get a good body guy and it will turn out looking sexy with either replica or real.

Agreed!
If you rocking rota p45's, don't get volk stickers to put on them.
I feel this type of topic is a constant battle.
Everyone has their own opinion on it.
The guys who are actually competing with their cars I can see rockin the real voltex because it is proven to benefit.
For everyone else who doesn't wanna spend several thousand, rock what you wanna rock. It's your car and do what YOU like. If you feel better because your supporting the company who created it then do so.
If you can't justify spending that much money on body work to be afraid of driving the car and messing it up, then roll the knock off.
And yes, the domo speed it the best knock offs. If I was to do it I would choose them.

I got a destroyed cwest knockoff front for free that I repaired and painted myself. Looks decent.
I have no idea where I wanna go with my exterior at this point.
Working on making it haul first. Probably build my motor this winter and start a wide body of some sort.

Nothing ever fits right when you buy cheap crap off ebay. Do it right or just dont do it.

False.
My JDM replica lights are perfect.
My VIS racing kit needs little work, and is very good quality.
+ Lots of OEM and name brand stuff is also sold on ebay, for half the price
