Cervini's body kit (C 300 Style)
A couple of questions for you pros.
1. Is there any modification needing to be done to this kit once purchased? Meaning andy cutting or detailed mock up for the kit to fit? Or is it a Direct bolt on perfect fit?
2. Will the paint properly adhere to the urathane and not flake/peal off later?
3. Which is the best fitting hood for the 07 GT that fits the best and will clear a Kenny Bell Supercharger?
And finally Are the side pipes from Cervini's as good of a flow system then say the Borla Stingers or Magnaflow?

From what I hear the fit is great. This is my second C300 and have had no problems with the paint. I have magnaflows with the side exhaust. Others have fit a KB just fine with either the cowl hood or the ram air like mine. Good luck!

+1 /\
As for this it's all about your shop and not the kit.As long as their experienced and follow the prep instructions you'll
have no problems.

+2 on that. I just got the C-series kit installed on my black mustang and i'm loving it. It bolted up perfectly. As far as paint goes, you shouldn't have any problems as long as they do the necessary prep work at the body shop.

RE: Cervini's body kit (C 300 Style)
1. the kit is direct bolt on and a great fit.
2. The paint if done by anyone with experience will adhere fine just ask the painter to make sure the mold release is off all the parts and primed well. Make sure the flex additive is in there as well as the parts are flexible (except the hood)
3.Any Cervinis hood will work for the KB or whipple for that matter (I am getting one in 2 wks installed)
4.The side pipes are all 2.5 inch mandrel bent and flow beautifully! I love the exhaust...oh and they use magnaflow magnapacks and they are a straight thru design....great even with LT and an x-pipe/h-pipe. Depends on sound you are going for.......
PM if you have any other questions...I know I have talked with you in the past...just go for it you will not be disappointed!
Check the website- they are using the Whipple now in place of the prochargers they offered last year!

RE: Cervini's body kit (C 300 Style)
GET THE KIT!!! You will love it! It really makes the car look classier IMHO. I also put it on my car and now when I look at the pictures of it stock, I frown........I went out yesterday evening and everyone was staring and looking at it. Although prepare for some negative attention too, some people take it as a direct challenge to race. What is really awesome is if you have the resources to back up a Whipple........then let the games begin when some jerk pulls up next to you with a *squirrelly* attitude!
