Default Extreme Dimensions Type JS?

I saw the multiple group buys, and it looks like atleast 50 of these are out there with our other owners... however no one ever posted the installs, fitaments or any form of instilation issues. So my questions:
How is the fit?
How do you install? Does undertray have to be removed? Looks wierd, im sure its same as js install?
I am debating this or oem ap2, but i like js more, just not the price tag, so replica is awesome.

I am with you on this. I see very little evidence. Only the information that it should be installed by a bodyshop. Sorry but it if it can't be installed easily, it is no bargain.

Installation is easy just like installing a front bumper couple of bolts here and there they say "professional installation required" because the adjustments are the part people don't understand like certain holes may need to be drilled slightly bigger in order to brig certain pieces closer im in fitment pics

Thank you for explaining. But did you see the post about the ill fitting APR bumper? I understand but would like more DIY info in order to decide which products or which product lines to look at and whether it is worth changing from OEM.

Yeah sorry I wasn't more in detail I once bought a super cheap replica kit where there was no modification that could be done except cutting it and remaking the piece it self haha but then I bought the authentic and it fit the same! Lol


If you look at the side skirt the part towards the front of the door it was almost 2 inches away from the body :/ I though it was a bad mold but later I bought authentic ones that was just as bad haha
I hear horror stories of bumper looking like they were for another car all together. Tbh i have been waiting for someone to buy a type js kit and post pics of its fitment :/ no one has any even the "witz" asm style kit it's so cheap but it must have horrible fitmen but just maybe... Atleast with extreme dimensions they are always quick to reply and offer guarantee

Yes, I am beginning to understand. I agree, would like to hear and see such work. I think we all would... Thanks for the pics.

Still toying with the idea, probably a pipedream of adding CF fenders and bumper to my Spa yellow, I think it would look nice, but don't know if I can afford the time. Any idea, or guidelines for a shop to install two fenders and a front bumper. If they are CF they no surface prep or painting would be necessary.

In the process of installing these... fitment is not the greatest. They seems to have made the side skirt mold the length of the rocker panel but not accounted for the fact that it is suppose to wrap around the inside edge of the wheel well. Currently we just cut off both edges of the skirt and are working on a new way to mount it. I will let you know how it goes this weekend when we finish the install. They should be 1/4" wider, give or take.
