the bumpers will be bolted on and the side skirts after all the work of legthening and reshaping and getting rid of that damn notch they will be attached by screws and we will also use the factory clips also, which will require a lot of work.
I recommend holding off until the kinks are worked out. Because the body work alone on the skirt will be around $600 and then the body work on the rear bumper will be high also.
The reason for a lot of sanding is due to the gel coat being so thick that it is hiding some of the lines and shape. But for 99% of you it is fine how it is on the gel coat thickness. I am anal and know the kit and the OSV too well and I am making a replica. So I am being picky and isn't really necessary.
You mentioned about the structural integrity, I'll let chris answer this due to he has a lot of experience with other bodykits out there from aed, ass, wings west, etc.
