Veilsides have "Veilside" stamped on them. If you dont see that anywhere on the kit its not real. I dont mean sticker, I mean its in the fiberglass.

veilside will cost you about 2000 to buy unless it was stolen. VIS and any other fiberglass bumpers would be relatively thin and virtually see through if you shine a light through it. Veilside stopped making kits for our cars unless it is custom ordered.
I would advise you to buy a cheap kit, heck buy like 3 if you have the money. Knowing North east road condition in USA you will break, scrape, be run into etc. So buying a cheaper kit would not be a bad idea because replacement costs would be cheaper. -------------------- Captain Pessimist

VeilSide aero kits are constructed of a high-grade Fiber Reinforced Plastic , unlike the cheap imitation and low-end fiberglass kits in the US market. VeilSide uses rolls of fibers in large sheets, which provides a lighter and flexible end product, while retaining the strength characteristics of good FRP. Thus allowing you to keep the lightweight advantage without sacrificing durability and the life longevity of your investment.

Um im pretty sure veilside still makes our bodykits. if you go to veilside.com you can go through it and find our car, and the veilside bodykit. And it cost you about 2500 to buy plus shipping.

er.. sorry to kinda go off topic.. but i once emailed bulletproofauto or wutever about their c-one kits and they said the genuine c-one kits are made of fiberglass... so is it the same type of fiber reinforced plastic that the veilside uses?
