The most awful fitment is the front bumper then the front wings and then side skirts problem like belina2ks2k said.
I have done it now so no regret but I just wont buy this kit If I was to do it all over again but instead I would rather stay oem or buy genuine or buy Amuse GT1 and pay the little more to the bodyshop to get the work done.
Is ur front wing cf or frp?
How is the fitment connect to the front bumper?

I have the same kit. It actually fits pretty good besides the sideskirts. Same fitment issue. Front bumper fits the best although i havent fully installed each part. If anybody wants to buy mine... its for sale I ordered authentic cause i got a great deal.

They should be 1/4" wider, give or take.

Might have been easier to cut in half, then refiberglass once desired lenght is met. Thats what i was going to do.

That's actually what we did. My body work tech changed his mind before he made any cuts and went with lengthening them instead.

Extreme Dimension had mentioned a partial refund for the extra work to get done but I don't have any full length shots prior to the work being done so it seems that's gone out the window. Not that a wider shot is going to really show the length issue IMO
