New to forum, not the car world. Tried searching couldn't find anything on this. An all the companies I call know nothing about the product they sell. (Except for VIS, frank has been very patient with me over there. lol)
I have a 07 350z touring roadster.
I need a direct fit body kit. No cutting, no filler. Just, paint, clear, line up, bolt down, and go. I do drift, so it needs to be quality. I was in love with the ravager from VIS, but I was advised against it because it needs a crazy amount of fab work. My next choice is the invader 3. Anyone know of any quality kits that will require no fab work for me? (Or very little, if I have to drill or whatever fine, not trying to sand the actual part down so it's even, or glob bondo to close big gaps, and pretty against cutting/welding.) So to sum up, non stock looking direct fit bolt on body kits. Anyone know of any? Lists of known kits.. Would be a huge help! Thanks in advance. =)
(And yes, I know they all say "Good fitment, etc etc..." none of them mean it. lol)

Also, budget is 0-$2300(just for the kit, I'm leaving rest for paint/paying myself for labor. lol)

Shine has good quality parts.
Aerosync front might be a good option.

Replica anything 95% of the time can't beat the fitment of genuine parts. With your budget though, I would suggest shine auto, they make good replica parts with from what i've seen have very good fitment.

So you want it to fit like a premium kit but you don't want to pay the premium price? If you're looking at VIS or Extreme Dimensions stuff...

Outcast garage parts have amazing fitment. Chris is a perfectionist and it shows. Call him and tell him Conrad sent you.

why is it so hard to make a perfect fitting aftermarket bumper? i dont get this. if the mold can be made(ie the oem one) why cant it be made to the exact fitting specs of the oem equipment?

Just get a urethane kit. Probably around $1000 imo

Because building a quality mold costs money, use of expensive high quality materials, requires highly talented individuals with the know-how, takes up more time for production. Most of the aftermarket companies want to move as many cheap production crap fitting kits as possible in the shortest amount of time for a wide range of vehicles for as little money as possible.

The way I understand it, they don't just fill a mold with material, remove the mold and voila, perfect part with consistent tolerances. They create a rough part using the mold which is then followed by a fair amount of necessary trimming and modifying by hand before being sent to the consumer. This final work by hand is often done hastily as production budget is low.

lol almost every extreme dimensions part I've seen has fit like crap, but I thought VIS was hit or miss. I wish Shine made a larger variety of parts. That's one rep company and owner (Ken) that I respect.
