Default Saleen kit fitment issues..?

Im less intrested in the "taboo" of adding the kit to a reg GT, and more intrested in the storys Ive read about the Saleen kit not fitting well.
Ive heard it takes quite a bit of prep work and fabricating to get it flawless.

Anyone want to chime in with storys, good or bad?

Mine fits flawlessly...There are many other "kitted" gt's that I have seen where you can see little flaws in the kit not fitting right. I can't find a single flaw on my car...

hardway, the new body pcs....S197 are made from an injected TPO plastic......just like factory OEM. These kits need very little prep to accept paint, fitment, etc. The stories you have heard are from the 94-04 Urethane parts. Saleen has since redone all of the molds, so those parts are coming out much better these days! Good luck with the project and if you have any questions, just ask.
