how many of you guys installed bodykits by yourself? what tools do i need?

 

my opinion...something that expensive...if you have to ask what tools to use...don't do it...an intake, muffler i understand but w/ an 2k body kit...too much money...hands on is great but damn...good luck...imo spend the extra dough get a pro to hook it up bro...

 

thanks

 

Well yeah if your asking what tools to use use the same tools you used to take the original bumber off with. But i will still help you. Today Team echo installed a bodykit for a lancer. Well really all you need is a drill lol drill bits a wrench a 10mm nut to but on the wrench cuz thats the size of the blots on the lancer stock body oh and brakets. Well first you place the body kit and mark where you need reinforcement. Onece you done that you can get industrial cement and paste the brakets to those spots let it dry and then just load it up and screw to your care that simple if you want i can walk you through it.

 

Do you want to completely prep it for paint too?

 

no

 

I did my own install... All i really needed was the right tools to remove bolts for the stock bumper used they same bolts to install my kaminari front as for the. Back bumper and side skirts I needed a drill and the rest is simple. First body kit I ever installed and was easy *** hell.

 

nice job

 

props on the kit

did the spoiler come with it or did u have to buy it seperately?

 

Seperately, Its a carbon fiber spoiler.

 

well ot tell you the truth depends whazt kit you buy
if you get some shark racing **** youll prolly need all my tools lol thats alot btw
uhm and as far as cementing the brackets on its a good idea
but its much better to glass em in. it will be a much stonger bond then the cement
but if you get a good kit you wont need much more then what everyone has told you

 

looks clean rrozul... props to you

 

where do you guys order your Body Kits from? Like not the ****ty shark racing ones...

 

lots of booze as a strees reliever

 

hey u should have a pro do it in case of fitment issues they can fit it the kits to the T the best to the kits ability and quality!!
