dude - congrats - i want to know too whether knockoff or real c one --

if real - i wanna come take a look - and where did you get it from ? how much? --
whats the difference between the knockoff and real besides authenticity?
Im thinking its a knock off but i care not if it is real or not. I got it from WWW.JTRSPORT.COM. Check them out they are pretty cool guys there. They have a good support team. Thanks for all the support guys. Kit should be here within the next week and a half! As for the c-one hood, im really looking into that also. Right now im putting all my money toward a 3sgte swap. Pics up soon guys!
So i got the kit yesterday in some huge freight box lol. I couldnt be happier!! I will post up later today with some pics. But for now i have school. laugh.gif
wow, i didnt know you still got on, you were supose to buy my springs or at least notify me if you werent going to buy them. Its alright, i should come check your kit out some day. I guess i know where the money went now. haha.
I guess even the real c-one is fiber glass. And that there isn't any eurathane kits out there for our cars. I didn't know that i figured the real veilside and real c-one would be eurathane
even the real kits are fiberglass

Yeah man sorry about the miscommunication with that sale. Do you still have those springs? Yeah i cant seem to find any AAA batteries around the house so i need to go get some. So as soon as i get the batteries i will post pics up. Should be before the end of the night.

That looks awesome!
Now I'd like to know where to get the C-One front end that fits the JDM GT-Four hood I'm buying.
It's supposedly got a higher rise on the nose.
I'm just not a big fan of CF hoods, and IMO the JDM hood looks better.
But anyways.

Well today i actually took off the front and rear bumpers and fitted the bumpers. The front fits great and the rear will need some sanding. As for the sides they will be molded. Tomorrow im calling my friends shop and they are going to install the kit as well as paint them. It took a while for my kit to get to my house about 1 week, but i couldnt be happier!

Hm, im not sure about how the rise on the nose is. I would get a GT-4 hood (VIS hood) but im saving for a 3sgte swap, im actually selling my truck so i can have enough money for the swap. Hope to see some pics of your car with the kit soon!

--Thanks for everyone for their support and positive reply's! Soon i will have pics of the kit on and painted!

People did say that they had problems with the fitment of their c-one front and i was willing to take the challenge but yeah the front bumper fit well, I did not drill any holes i just used tape and books to put it in place and see how it fit. The real problem is the rear bumper on the driver side. The kit comes with a pre-template on the kit where the holes are on the actual car. Some spots are a little different though. Got the kit from WWW.JTRSPORT.COM it was 600 and shipping was a little bit more. Do it man i was so timid to get the kit because of fitment problems but now i have it and couldnt be happier!! I cant wait for the car to be ready to show off!

yes it is still off.
Went to shop today and left body kit for them to prep and primer. Sunday going in to be fitted, molded and cut. Then Monday Spray and then tuesday pick up. Pics up by tuesday hopefully.
Really shouldn't remove the front crash bar. Should fit it around the bar. But hope to see pics of it on the car soon. I hope mine fits good. But i have to leave the bar on there other wise my bodyman wont paint my car and or put the kit on.

Well i know its not safe at all lol, But i just wanted to make sure i got the best fit i could.. i put it all back on yesterday before i took it to the shop to be fitted, cut, prepped, and painted. Well see how it goes with the pics on tuesday.

Not sure, i put the safety bar back on with the stock 95 bumper. So if the shop takes it off to fit it on i will let you know ASAP.
Ight thanks a lot man wink.gif hope to see it soon.
not to be nosey, but, what is the distance from the front of the hood to the bottom of the front bumper, or from the lowest part of the high beam to the lowest part of the front bumper. I have hight requirements on my car. thanks a bunch!! biggrin.gif

Well to my dissapointment, my car was not ready today. It seems they are having a little trouble fitting the front. But i guessed this would happen. When i get the car back i will measure for you and let you know.
Got the car back today. They did a ok job on the paint and the kit. The front looks awesome though. Here are some pics.
