It fit horribly until made it fit properly Took me 2 LONG days to sand, fiberglass to add material around headlights, and reshape to fit the bumper properly.
Stupid question here, but nobody else has asked it yet: If it fits properly, why do you want to replace it? Will buying an authentic Amuse front give you all that lost time back?

I have always been one to buy authentic parts. I appreciate the time/research that goes into product design and development.That being said... When I bought my S it was a daily driver. I didn't want to risk damaging an authentic Amuse on our horrible roads. A bit hypocritical yes, but it's the truth!

Furthermore, I'm still not 100% satisfied with my replica's fitment. Most would give it a 10/10 but I would give it a 9/10 even after all the work I did. Probably a 5/10 when it arrived. I'm suuuuuper picky. Most would look at my front end and say it looks perfect but I'm different. That being said I don't know if an authentic would fit perfect or not.... in my mind nothing is as good as OEM when it comes to fitment.

Also, guys. I've had a handful of PM's regarding selling my replica. It's not for sale until I have an authentic in my hands.

Thanks.

Hmm.... wouldn't that be like an extra G you're gonna spend after painting it again? ><

You sure you don't want to spend on something else?

We will see how much I can land an authentic one for. If it's too much then I'll keep the replica.
