Just got the invader body kit, the line around the headlights is horrendous- there's about a 3/4 inch gap all around. I've already tried fiberglassing around to get it close but to no avail.
SOOOO, Question: Is there a headlight bezel that I can epoxy to the bumper to make it flush? Or would it be better to keep trying to fiberglass around to the light to make it fit? |

Yes, the rubber seal is on. I came up with an idea though, the old bumper was basically trash, so I cut out the piece around the headlight and epoxied and filled it on to the new bumper, it fits perfectly now.

The entire body kit: rear, front, and side skirts were about $600 usd shipped.

that happened to me when i got my first kit for the celi years ago. I had to fiberglass aroung the lights to close the 1 inch gap. The body shop left it like that too. Thats when i decided to never put my car in the shop for body work again. I do it all myself.
