Default $280 body kit???

Has anyone purchased this body kit or any others like it from NOPI?

Even if it needs some adjustments 280 is cheap.

By the time you pay what it'll likely take to work them over enough to look and fit perfect, you could likely have bought something of much higher quality and fitment out of the box.

I also have a problem with add-on sides; they go OVER the existing side skirts and stick out a bit, rather than being full replacements. This does nothing but add unneccessary weight to the car.

The overall design isn't bad, but the negatives outweigh the positives, IMO.

The paintshop I use (that gives me discounted prices) told me for a job like the one I was asking about paint and install about be around $650, and the kit was $500... for that, I could have gotten the real things and had a better quality piece with the same paint but less work to get it fitted... for the same exact total price... oh well

the kit looks nice though
