I dunno, I barely had to trim my kit from ED, but im also not mounting it for 'perfection'. Mostly was where the corner wraps around the wheel well, it just needed cut more square. The ED kit has withstood quite a bit of hits though, I have scrapped walls, and hit cones and still very little damage overall.

oh, and what the hell is your deal anyways?
Uh Navan is OEM and so are kouki sideskirts, so of corse they would bolt on. But only if you have the proper oem tabs. To bad usdm zenki s14s dont have the proper tabs.

I had to used self threading machine screws to install all my navan stuff. So thats not really direct bolt on. Thats me having to figure out how to put them on.

Factory made means factory fit. Duh. Plus OEM stuff is made from ABS plasics most of the time in an injection or stamp mold. Big difference to a fiberglass replica made in some ones shed.

Box, this required little trimming to fit. The bumper is a C-west and that was already pre-trimmed to fit. ED's quality is going up. Im sold on that one for sure.... talk to your sponsor friends.. lol

used a dremel and took me 30 min or less to shave the corners down, this was for both side skirts and both bumpers so a total of 12 corners to finish. Any 240 that is 100% straight still is a miracle in itself, don't expect a perfect kit fitment out of the box- thats like double miracle crazy shit!
