ok so my skyline body kit FINALLY arrived and im really excited and im having the kit put on painted my whole car painted this weekend..well they are starting this weekend...but i was just curious to ask if anyone had any problems with the kit or anything like that..maybe something i can tell them to watch out for..and im not too familiar with body kit or body work...how exactly do they put the sideskirts on? and is it a direct bolt-on of the front and back bumper..cuz i took my corner lense of my bumper and tried to put it on my new front bumper and it wouldnt fit...i was also kinda scared too about that...this is also the kit from custommaxima.com...any help would be appreciated

 

if the body shop you selected works with fiberglass/ or body kits all the time you have nothing to worry about.

side skirts - they can use a glue like stuff and screws

from what i have read the skyline is a direct bolt on. this doesnt mean it will be a perfect fit though.


shops that work with body kits will have no problem fixing you up, they already know what to expect and what to do.

 

woo hoo good deal then..thanks for the help...well ill post pics soon i hope my ride looks clean enough...yeah when i put that corner light in the new bumper and it didnt fit...i kinda freaked

 

Who did you order your kit from and how long did it take for you to get it? Im looking to put one on my 95.

I have just the front lip on mine you can see it on my website, but i put it on myself ran in to a couple of problems but worked them out i'm sure a shop can do a better job then me.

 

hey how much did it cost to throw your bodykit on and paint it? If u dont mind me asking...

 

i see youre from h-town..but anyways...im from corpus christi and my friends MOM thats right MOM owns a paint and body and if i do the sanding and buffing...and hes going to help me...shes doing the rest and putting on my kit..and painting everything BLACK for $450 dollars...thats right....now people are going to freak and think im getting a ****ty job down..but hey its just nice when you know the people...well they start this weekend and ill be glad to post pics once the finish product is done..but maxine if you dont mind me asking...what kind of problems did you run into?>?

 

any body kit will have fitment problems spaces or gaps in certain parts of the bumper you cannot exspect the kit to fit excatly like stock w/out some sanding or filling in where the gasp are or will be all body kits come out of mold and in the process heat/cold things warp or get lose just test fit it and if you or the body shop see any gaps just fill them in or sand down the areas...you will see what I'm talking about...it will be well worth it in the end...

 

yeah thanks a lot im really excited and i got a great deal...and im sure theyre out there somewhere but ive never seen a black max with the skyline body kit so im hoping itll look sweet with 18" enkei dm5's
