Dude those bumpers seem to fit like garbage. With $11K worth of mods, you would think it would fit better ;P

So why was it so cheap ??

yeah i know it needs a lil work. i plan on taking them off and molding them in or at least doing some fiberglass work and fitting them up better than they were. i didn't say all $11,000 went into the body. maybe you should go online and price jdm parts for a honda. especially ones from a type R and you will see where the money went quick.

id say scratch the kit and just go oem with a lip kit



Re: i joined the dark side.
Tuesday, October 13, 2009 9:58 PM
i don't really like the oem look much. but whats ironic is i have the same body kit sitting here that i bought for my cavalier i was gonna put on and never got to it. id let it go for $600 + shipping

idk like i said i had the same style of kit for my cavi and like the looks of it. it needs work though, not gonna lie. im gonna do the fiberglass work and fit it up and mount it alot better so theres no gaps.

If everyone liked the same thing then there wouldn't be a demand for so many different styles of things.

Ill add my name to that curious list... that kit fits perfect on 99.999% of cars.. including my cav way back when...

Something is way too fishy about 4k and body panels that just dont fit right... frame damage? the hood even has gaps..

How many miles?


I like that body style of si the best but they still go for 12k ish around here with 80,000+ miles....

The one pick shows some very non shiny paint down the side. Looks almost like a garage repaint without a wetsand. To me it looks as if it was smashed in the passenger side and fixed as cheaply as possible. The price also seems way to low to me. Why a new motor and tranny at less than 35K miles? Just to many things that dont seem right to me.

idk well my buddy has gone through a motor in his and he barely had 50,000 on the clock. and yeah the paint isn't perfect. cars like this stock go for alot around here too. it was involved in a front end impact. i looked it over i see no frame damage at all.
