Has anybody tried to install a body kit....on your own..
are they not direct bolt on...."plug n play"
Thanks,
Preetham

no they arent direct bolt ons...some kits need adjustments and modifications dependin on the the condition of the kit...not all body kits will fit PERFECTLY unless u get an authentic kit such as a veilside, varis, etc...sometimes they come slightly cracked or whatever from the shipping but normally body shops use either industrial strength glue, screws, or rivets to hold the kit and reinforce it where it needs to be reinforced. hope this helps.

i was considering this kit from veilside:

hey man...if u can afford the authentic veilside, more power to ya but it'll be crazy expensive but it'd be well worth it.

was wondering how it could look on a red celi..

if you can afford an authetic veilside chances are you can probably afford the install >>

a better alternative would be a vis or erebuni knockoff kit and pay someone to install and paint it. that would still be a hell of a lot cheaper than a single authentic kit.

would it be worth buying that cheap street concept combat knock off from andy's and just working on it? It's $179 compared to Andy's $500(which needs work to be fitted anyways)

i installed my VIS invader kit. It was definitely not plug and play. Lots of cutting, sanding, pulling etc. If i had to do it again i would just pay someone, its not worth all the trouble.
