Hello everyone--
Those of you with their body kits molded, do you always experience cracking in the paint eventually? My is cracked at the seam, but mostly from being careless, but also seems like right by where the door closes, it always eventually cracks. I love the look of the molded, but not the high maintenance. I'm thinking about buying another set of side skirts and have it not molded. The rear bumper never cracked as nothing touches is and it looks great without the seems. So yeah, hmmm......

Well molded body kit looks really cool but I think not molded is better it is more easy to fix
a side skirt or a front lip if you crack it and then paint it and put it back on its place.
But the molded kits are has to be fixed molded again on the car and paint it on the car and the
same time try to match the paint with the rest of the car.

Hope I helped you!

This is just my opinion.
