I know people who have, and have had all kinds of problems with fitting and then fitting of other mods, i.e. FMICs.

Stay well away.

Just remember like everything, you get what you pay for!

Don't skimp on a fiberglass kit and you will get better quality. Pay peanuts and you'll get a crap kit!

Agree with the sentiments above, however I've even seen genuine jap kits fitting pretty average. To me the real money should be spent on the guys fitting and finishing your kit. Especially when you consider the likelihood that your car isn't 100% straight like it was from the factory after being driven around for 15 years..

Does anyone know if a series 1 front bar will fit a series 2 Stagea ??

Doubt it. Totally different around the headlights.

helped fit a viva kit to an s13, it took 2 guys 2 weeks of cutting, shaping, sanding and glassing just to get it to fit on the car and ready for primer!!

Check out my build thread for pic's

40 hrs alone of mods to get rear bar to fit

Cut into 3 pieces and extended both sides by 20-25mm to reach wheel arches. heaps of filler needed

Both side skirts were 7-10mm too short, cut and extended as well.
