Yah... I bought a Body Kit, and I got it a few days ago...

Its nothin to really scream about cuz its not an exreme looking kit. Its just my style... Simple, and curvey... Its an Erebuni Kit... Someone on the site has the exact same kit, and matter of fact, they have a white convertile too! Haha! Thats funny... But I forgot who's it is... But yeah, if you know them, my car will look exactly like that... Except mine will have a wing... and it wont be lowered...

But yeah... When I oredeed the kit, I saw somewhere that for this kit that Intsllation on a GT or Convertible model will require slight modification... Its true.... The front fender of the kit is gonna havta be shaved down an inch and a half and shaped to fit perfectly... The Side Skirts fit alright, excpet one side skirt is gona be shaved down because for some reason, thebottom inside of it curls upward... That needs to go or it wont fit on my car..

Then the back bumper... Does not fit what so ever mad.gif Grrr! This is whats gona make this a project.... The flipin back fender... Its too short! No I know the kit is originally suppose to fit an ST, but damn.. this is no slight modification... Me and my dad we're thinkin on how to get it to fit, and we're gonna hava to customize in order to get it to fit! Joy! rolleyes.gif Or take the back fender to the Body Shop to deal with...

But yeah... This kit is pretty weird... No bolting at all... Just molding pretty much...

But yeah... How we're gonna do it, Im not too sure... But once weget n idea I'll let yall know!

Try a heat gun or hair dryer for anything thats warped the wrong way. heat it up and rewarp it. As far as the rear, cut off the ends that are too short. Line them up and bolt them to your fenders. I will post pics later of this, i just found some. Make the extra length in fiberglass. Your front should have fit right on, unless they gave you the wrong front. 404 vs 404a Post some pics of the problems before you do some work so we can help you out a bit Sabrina.
