no body kit cept the veilside is gonna fit perfect.. u can have them mod it but its not gonna be cheap.. fiberglassing might fix, gaps between the headlight doesnt explain to much

Ususaly there is interference with the front crash bar / bumper. You'll need to cut a little bit of fiberglass around the turn signal area. Without being there or having any pictures of what's wrong no one will be able to tell for sure.

there is no way cause i have a Veilside and my whole kit lines up perfect.. nothing hits or anything, if u had one it would be predrilled where u bolt it on and everything works.. and who would spend 1500 or w/e to cut it for the coupe back when none of the drilled holes would work and you have to drill em again??? the only reason i have one is cause some girl didnt kno what she had and sold it to me dirt cheap.. all holes are predrilled and everything slaps on..

go to the shop and ask em if they can make it look how u want, like tell em to fill in the gaps and stuff, go there and talk and see what they say, if they cant find another shop, ask around but mainly jus go there and ask em

take off the headlights, slide them about 1/2" forward (or however much, it was about half an inch for me), redrill wholes for the headlights, then bolt them on. easiest way to fix...
