with those fat side skirts.

anyway does any1 think the ebay kit would look anything like that?

The kit is not bad looking but the finish looks like hell.

It is going to cost you more to install that kit than it will to buy it because of it being unfinished.

Looks interesting.

Yeah the finish is going to cost a pretty penny!

oh so its totally raw and will need to br rubbed, primed and painted?

how are kits usually sold

depends on the price and material used to make it

fibreglass kits are usually crap and take 5-10 hours to finish and fit them properly .

Otherwise they are all wavy with rough edges and do not fit right as it is made from a good companies kit which has a mould made of it but the moulds are never finished properly .

Ureathane or plastic is oem material and since it is expensive to make the moulds the companies usually make sure it is perfect in the mould so they bolt on without extra bodywork to finish.

Any kit below 1000 is a risk.

No kit unless used or sold by a OEM comes painted.

The most it will come primed sometimes finished in regards to the edges and trueness of each panel.

I don't particularly like the side effects on that eBay kit. It is way too squared for the LS' smooth lines.
