Its forbidden because way back in the day they threated to sew Naich for hosting images of there kit on this site. Since then it is actually agianst the rules to host images of tha particular kit on this site.

AAS fiberglass is much thinner meaning it will crack easier. Like the slightest touch and crack. the Forbidden kit front is like 10 pounds maybe. Well worth the quality.

God i didnt think the AAS kit was that thin. I hope our OSV kit (if it's made) isnt going to be that thin!!

hmm....that's pretty weird....most of the people I know complain about their @ed kits being too thick and causing it to crack because there's no flex in it when they hit something.

Only time my AAS kit ever cracked was when my wife drove it fully over a parking lot curb (yes, lowered), and even then it was just the bottom edge.

if your car is just for show and you don't mind the kit outweighing the stock parts by 300% or more, and you know you'll never hit anything, then the @ed kit is the way to go.

thanks, but i prefer the more "aggressive,wide mouth bass" kit over the "looks like a molded refigerator box" kit.

but thats me. theres a good chance i'll never get a kit anyway.

Those vids aren't that great. even with him swining a hammer... your car will easily produce more force then that guy can... even though the POI (Point of Impact) will have a high amount of force on it.

no to mention the bumper hasn't been weathered, frozen, thawed, refrozen...etc.

Good demonstration, yes... but its not a absolute guarentee.

Yes yes yes and a million times yes.

DONT buy from them. DONT DONT DONT. I know lots of people do it without fail, but the problems they've been giving me are ridiculous. They almost never pick up their phone (like once a month, calling every other day), and they haven't responded to my emails in like 3 months.

I sent them an email last week threatening legal action by the end of this week, so we'll see where small claims court gets me if they don't write back. Ugh.

Just find it used, if you can.
