OSV Has Arrived
My OSV kit arrived this morning!
It was packed well except for the spoiler laying loosely in the carton. We were told that we would be able to inspect the kit for damage at delivery, WRONG! The shipper would not let me inspect it. There was absolutely no damage to the box so I accepted it. For those that have not been shipped the kit yet, I wouldn't bother with the COD. If there is no damage to the box then accept it, but it's your choice.
The rear bumper has a couple of issues as shown below. Not sure if all the bumpers will have it but I will addresss it with Bodykits.
This is a bump on the rear bumper, not sure what caused this but it is flat on the reverse side. It probably can be sanded with no difficulty but is annoying.

Sweet...I told Bill on Monday to ship me COD. Haven't heard anything more since then. Originally it was to arrive yesterday or today, but i delayed shipment a day by hesitating on the COD issue, so I'm hoping to see mine tomorrow.

That spot is just a run in the gelcoat. It can be sanded out easy before paint. Anyway it needs to be sanded primed/base/clear.
Looking good! Can't wait to see it installed.

There is flaw in the side skirts. They built in a notch for a 2 door that was not visible in the progress pictures they sent to us. I am didscussing this with Aldo currently and Scot is coming over to the house tonight. I have issues with the side skirts and the rear bumper.
If anyone else receives their kit tale pictures of the rear bumper.

your skirts also look strikingly similar, as if they're both made for the same side

I need someone with a 2 door to take a picture of their stock side skirts with the door open so I can send it to Bodykits.

Alright I'm an idiot and can't figure out how to load the pics without overloading my limit of pics I can load.
PM your email address and I will just shoot you an email.
