Well I getting another body kit and I dont wanna pay the body shops to fit. I WANT TO DO THIS MYSELF! Its fiberglass and I was wondering what steps I would need to take to make it line up properly.. I do have a lot of fiberglass experince if that makes a differnce

 

what do u mean fitting it on mine was just like you bolt it on......?

 

they SHOULD come pretty closely fit... then basically u just screw it in... i wouldnt fiberglass it to ur fenders, noootttt a good idea,

 

I new they came close to fitting..I just wanted some tips on how to make it line up perfectly

 

don't mold it on. you're probably going to take it off anyway. just take your time measuring and whatnot before drilling and you should be alright. good luck.

 

If the kit is close enough, you can just use a heat gun to heat it up and bend it into shape. If it's too off, you'll have to cut and re-glass sections, which is usually only need on shitty kits. If you're going with a urethane kit and it doesn't fit correctly, you're screwed, because it's impossible to alter them. IMO, a kit is never going to fit as good as OEM though, so learn to not nit-pick too much because you'll drive yourself crazy. Get the kit fitting the way you want it, take it off and have it painted (unless you're painting the entire car), re-install it. You're done.

 

You could go through all that hassle .. or not get a body kit, but whatever floats ur boat entertains mine I guess.

 

I have installed 3 body kits so far. Not one of them fit properly but I got them to fit a lot better than they were at first. One of the back bumpers I was working on was sticking way out so I parked the car close to a wall and used a jack to push the side of the bumper in and then screwed it down with several bolts. On an Integra Bomex kit the area around the ligths didn't go in all the way so I had to mold round tubes in to have it sit agaings the light.

There is a shop that works next to mine and they will only install Wings West body kits b/c they fit perfectly, and if they don't you can return it for a full refund.
