Im just curious if any one had such a hard time getting their body kit to fit perfectly on. Ive been working forever to get mine to fit perfect. So if im not the only one please tell me your story.

I bought a used vader kit along time ago off ebay, and it sucked. My z3 fenders suck, 1 fits well and the other is way off, plus the studs in them, 3 were metric and the 4th was american. Ive gotten my moneys worth out of my heat gun and dremel! >>

havent had too too big of problems with fitment but a bad body kit story was when i was driving on the freeway my vader bumper just flew right off. the bottom lip stayed on though. and then at a meet the lip started hanging off and dragging. the worst was when the whole bumper flew off on the freeway though.

zip tires and memories ...

holy crap... thats terrible man!!! what happened for it to fly off anyway? bad bolt or something?

Yup thats before DMC showed me the zip tie tricks the bolts just slid right non out and bai bai bumper i got out the car though and ran in and grabbed that biatch though

Has anyone had problems with the combat front bumper? I'm thinking about getting one.

im glad im not the only one. Ive been sanding, and fiberglassing forever. Im gonna take pics to day cause i need all the advice and tips i can get. Im sort of learning as i go, but with my luck im learning the hard way.

My g/f decided to back into my car, crushing the kit.

i have a bad story...when i used to have the erebuni zglide front lip. i was coming out of the parking lot at my old school and its on a hill so you could imagine how steep the driveways are....well school had just gotten out and i was leaving the parking lot and trying not to scrap my kit...when i heard a loud CRAAAAACK...and then a scraping sound...i knew it was my kit....so i got out of my car...and remember it was at school and it was when everyone was getting out so everyone saw me....it was so embarassing...well my whole right side of my kit had ripped off and was dragging on the floor....i got out and ripped off the last screw and threw the kit in my back seat and jammed home...i was so pissed at myself..later that day i finished ripping off my kit... thats when i decided to get the c-one front..

No major issues with the combat. It does require some work though. Most of the work is just sanding down high spots so everything is flush. Mine still has a few issues to be fixed. Hopefully this summer I'll have it finished. Also, the crash bar will have to be modified.
