Default INGS N1 authenitic Kit

Does anyone have the real INGS N1 kit? If so did it fit perfect? Im looking at the kit and wonder how it fit bc i would go with the real stuff if it bolted on perfect. If it needs work i mit as well buy a replica and get it to work. So anyone with the real kit let me know how it went for you.

Fit real well.... Difficulty on front bumper cause of FMIC.



In fact I think my front bumper fit better than stock. Little to no gap around headlights.

Hey Method, you have good taste. When they put your FMIC on, did they have to take off the bumper totally or did they just make the cuts?

Got another question, when you had the kit put on, did they take off the plastic on the underside that is supposed to protect the engine?

Sup man, thanks. I had the stock bumper on when I went FI so no issues on that end. When my Ings bumper was installed, no cuts had to be made be cause the APS FMIC is thinner than the Greddy and does not require the bumper support to be removed. As for the plastic undertray, it's still there.

Think it doesn't look "as bad" when you see it in it's entirety.... Again, different strokes though...

Thanks James.
As for zzz350's comment, I don't care what people think, I build my car for me. If people like it, great... If not, oh well. At the end of the day, I have a mile wide smile after driving her. Again different strokes for different folks.

Hopefully motor will be built by the end of this year, and it'll be a track car that you can see at shows.

Thanks man it looks really nice i knew some one had to have the real kit. I got a few more questions for ya. U said you still have the plastic undertray on there did the kit come with a place to bolt that up? or how did you do that? And could you take some pics of the infenders in the front and undertray? I would like to see how they attach to the front bumber. BUt dont listin to anyone your car is sweet looks really good the kit looks like it fits perfect. Why didn't you get the back to? or do you got it and dont have it on yet?

I'll try to get pics for you, but the bumper uses all the stock mounting holes. No extra holes needed that I remember. The fender lining mounted like stock. As for undertray, that was a different story. The shop had to drill holes for the little gromets. Now for the rear. I have the rear, but still debating about using it or going w/ rear diffuser. Because of my ST kit, I don't have much choice w/ exhaust, and the tips might look to small and sunken in w/ Ings rear. Thanks for the compliments man.

Yeah his looks sweet but his front is the replica i didnt know if there was a big difference between the too. Thanks for your help i've pretty much decide to go with the real kit. I hope you can get some fender shots i'd like to check that out and did you fit the back to see if it fits as good as the rest of the kit? Where did you order your kit from? Is it the hybrid fiberglass urethane or just fiberglass?

Meth as always great photos and even better ride... Don't let these ____ (insert adjective) get any joy out of your setup...

The funny thing is, half of the people who make these snide comments

A) Don't own Z's
B) Are jealous
C) Barely making payments and can't afford to mod
D) Are kids and teenagers who are not old enjoy to enjoy anything we have....

Sad indeed...

But once again... SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!
