Word to the wise. Be prepared to spend money on getting the parts finished, or re-finished. I just ordered a Saleen style bumper (repairing a wrecked front end) by AIT Racing. I, the fool, expect it to need only painting.

When I receive it, the primer was obviously put on with a brush, there are chips and air bubbles all over the place.....basically it's gonna cost me about 250 for that part alone in re-finishing, and that's just the bumper.

Now having said all that, I'd have to recommend Sport Compact Only. I felt comfortable doing business with them as they let me know where my part (read: money) was every step of the way.

it is actually easy to get the old parts off. I pulled all the old parts off myself and precut all the mesh and stuff like that. I had a guy paint it for me and put it on. I recomend having someone that knows what they are doing do it for you. You can help cost by doing what I did to cut labor down. My kit is polyeurathane, and it doesn't require as much work as fiberglass.
