I didn't really have time to check fitment of my vizage side skirts and rear underskirt (aka JP Aero). I did search for the posts and most people say it's very good.
Should I just trust the Internet or IT IS rule of thumb to always pre-fit damn bodykits? Bam Bam,Pumped VA,Kelly?

Let me know guys!

 

I probably should have, but didn't. My kit is at D&V right now getting painted.

Kevin thought everything looked good, so that made me feel good....

 

I would say that all of my pieces had areas that looked like they needed some work prior to painting. But honestly, I do not think any thing needed fitment testing.

Vertex installed mine and they said everything fit real well..

Just my experience of course...

As far as any actual "adjustments" you could make, you're probably in ok shape. However, I've talked with several Vizage owners who have had the same experience I had with the left-side skirt. It almost seems as if their mold was off because just behind the door the skirt wants to pull away from the body. I've reapplied tape several times, but these skirts are thick and quite rigid. You have to bend the skirt a bit to get it to sit against the car, so there is constant tension on the tape and eventually it gives way. Maybe your kit, being at least a year newer will have this problem rectified.

Good luck!

 

why not try a little epoxy?

 

That was next. The bad part about epoxy is that the skirt is a permanent part of the car then. With the tape, I can pull the skirts off for maintenance purposes, which is a blessing considering I have only 3 inches of ground clearance at the front of the skirts.

 

+1 Kelly, yeah the left one is kinda off. I had mine fitted first. We found the front bumper to be slightly off and will probably have a small (tiny) crack under the headlight. Be careful, because that seemed to be the weak points in the bumper when they shipped it and should be repaired before paint. But you can get the skirts and the front to work better with a little fiberglass work on your own. They aren't bad at all though in comparison to many bodykits. I would also recommend you have your body guy fabricate brackets and a mounting system for the bottom of the front bumper. (That is if your getting the vizage front) It seemed kinda flimsy just hanging down with nothing behind the bottom. It may be overkill, but it is mounted nice and solid now.
