Ok im im leaving the shop now....all in all I think it went well and progress with the skirts was made....my bumper did have any issues really, it look good to me...the pics are there so you tell me?? but Hyma and his buddy was real cool. They put my car back the way they found it....had great attitudes...so what its worth my kudos to the shop guys....im going home...dueces

im not in the buy at all, but just looking at it, it looks like the passenger rear pops out a bit when they had the clamps on the wheel well around the rear tail light... just my observation, it might be like that normally, i havent checked too closely, but i know you all are looking for any imperfections visible...

LOL I slipped in the "i can haz cheezburger?" cat in one of the pictures at the beginning of the thread, and everyone LMAO'd, and then that and all the replies were removed... So I keep trying to slip it in.

I do it for the lulz.

I really hope shit gets sorted out mf-ing ASAP.

alerosaint, did you address the issue on the rear bumper just forward of the tail light? where it sticks out? mine has the same issue.

also, im glad that they worked on the sideskirt. mine is diffinately cracked cause it got forced in place. almost like the crack on one of the pics.

the rear bumper, underneath the trunk lid still seems warped, or is that just me?

It looks a little wavy, but nothing major.

joserivas19 · 05-09-2009, 10:13 PM

heres what i mean by the rear bumper tail light issue

theres a small gap there and it sticks out maybe 1/4 of an inch or so.

tnalero99 · 05-09-2009, 10:18 PM

Glad to see they finally can admit they did not make them right the first time. The rear looks a lot better than the pieces that we all recieved. Be interesting to see what they want to do now to make this right for us.

This is what Aldo will do for us.......we will get the new sides = no charge and we can keep the first ones. the rear well if you pay to ship yours back and then pay for shipping the new one to you then you can have a new rear.

this is the other area that bdyman and I had to heat up and reshape. Plus also if you adjust everything on the rear bumper mount points you can get rid of it after the heating.

Those side skirts look effing sexy. I never noticed them on the OSV.

yeah, but my rear bumper is cracking alot under the left taillight and some under the right. i dont even have an idea on how much its gonna cost to fix that. here, i found a shop that will work on the kit, but they want 700 bucks just to fix the left sideskirt that broken. i think thats just rediculous. i have no idea what i wanna do with this now.

that doesn't surprise me on the $700. There is a lot of man hours in those side skirts. If they want that much for the side i bet they would want 1k-1.5k for the rear bumper,

joserivas19 · 05-10-2009, 02:58 AM

yeah, thats what i was starting to guess. im gonna wait and see what happens with bodykits and then go from there; if i want to fix it or get one from bodykits thats not messed up.

Since they didnt bolt it down it had a lil pop out look to it....we took one of the clamps of and he pulled on it like it was bolted up and the area fitted tighter and smoother

To me the the rear bumper flowed well on my car, but like I said since it was not bolted up it pertruded a lil in couple places. When we did mock it up like it was bolt it looked smooth and lined up to me..also it was a lil wavy under the trunk lid but it also wasnt bolted down.....but compared to the others the warpage on my bumper was real minimal

Hyma did say that....he said you can heat it up to adjust how much you want the flare

One thing I did noticed was the rear bumper I had installed on my car was not as badly warped as some of the other bumpers seen, and Im not a bodykit professional but to me the rear I had fit well....there a lil things that can be done to make it perfect but for the most part it went on there well....i mean you guys seen the pics what do you think?

Oldsman · 05-10-2009, 09:11 AM

it does fit much better. I just wish the first ones were like that and they would have sent us those.

Based on what we were told by Aldo when he was asked by Scot on the phone he stated that everyone would receive a new set of sideskirts at NO additional charge. That should include also. Do not spend a dime on your kit untill we get it all resolved.

kwhauck · 05-10-2009, 10:31 AM

hok666 · 05-10-2009, 05:47 PM
