yes thats a good deal, and it is the AAS or the variant of.
The only things i would look at is the party selling, and more pics, or an inspection of pieces prior to purchase.

yea it says brand new in the descrip, even if it has some imperfections (some fiberglass will) if you are good with your hands and or prep work, it should be worth it, considering from Andys its on sale for 500, 400 is good. I thought I saw the price on the ad, but it says contact now?

then just buy it now since its a nice price (if it ends up being a good "new" kit) and save it til the spring comes to get it on. |

even if its extreme or someone else that made it, its still the AAS design, shouldnt be a fitiment issue, there are onlt 4 kits that were ever made
AAS
Razzi
AED
OSV
I do not know about the OSV, but you cant get the AED unless used from someone.

Well they both seem to live pretty close, maybe go and check it out before purchassing, but fab work to a fiberglass kit is easy. I had no experience when i started to work on mine, and now I have worked on it several times, as they can break pretty easily, esp if someone backs up into you, lol or you head in park and hit a curb.

oh damn, thats a hike, i know that kind of drive, my ex g/f lives 5 hrs from me, so I know about that, lol.
Have him snap a few more pics and even the backside of the pieces, maybe one or 2 to try to get an idea of thickness (or thiness) of the pieces
fiberglass holds up well, its all about how you take care of it, or drive, if you hit stuff then you will learn quick how to repair. Once I put my kit on it stayed on (unless repairing)
as far as aerodynamics, I have no clue.

Please don't get that kit for your own sake.
That is the V-fiber knock-off kit of the AAS. I have one sitting in one of my shops that AAS sent me for some reason. I told them to pick the sh*t up and send me the one I ordered. They are literally so cheap, that the cost of picking it up would have been more than the kit itself, so they told me to keep it.
It is VERY thin and fits nothing like the AAS brand kit.

Yeap lol. I'm using it for a spare for my current AAS kit. Every part will require cutting and re glassing for correct fitment.
