    the kit is very easy to fit as the front wings are all fiberglass and just bolt on, the rears are more difficult as they are bonded or riveted on and then fiberglass fillered on the outside(if you want the smoothed look) the bumpers bolt up in the normal way as all mount brackets are built into the fiberglass

    just bear in mind with a kit like that you need some decent wide wheels to pull it off.

    image will do a set for £600 for 13" wheels with 10j rears, 15"wheels will be the best part of £1500 newgood shout is to look for the dimma wheels or something like that and just have the rears altered to a 10j by changing the outer rim
