I'm still waiting for someone to run in the rear so I can get the SS bumper and lip lmao.I'm more than likely just gonna get the LSJ/LNF rear lip and attach it to my factory LS bumper.Then I need to get the side rocker moldings and ill be done with appearance except I want a CF hood and decklid

I did it backwards lol bought the entire body kit, had a buddy paint it... Then backed into my wifes car (quick lesson on drinking and driving, didn't even make it out of my driveway haha).

The entire kit on eBay was like 800 and paint was 1200. So I guess it was ALOT. I have to get the rear end repainted. Probably have the whole car shot in the spring and get t over with.

i had a guy back into my rear passenger quarter bumper cover like 2 years ago and at the time i never thought of it but since it was on the other guys insurance i shouldve asked my body shop guy if he could put ss bumpers on it instead of the base one as my car sits now i need a new hood since its somewhat buckled and my front bumper is a little scuffed from a stupid woman last year who did the bump and run... . it will all get fixed when i graduate and get a job

That's still $80 for ONE rocker. Which is exactly what i said. You can't get a "set" for $80 shipped anywhere on eBay. But oh well.

If you just take it to a shop,they will put on whatever the VIN calls for.You have the other persons insurance cut you a check.The school district cut me a check and so did my moms insurance company.My insurance wasn't even involved as it was there fault.

Front bumpers are exactly the same.
Rear requires MINOR work near the wheel arch.
