Qs about Sarona Body Kit

I've heard they are really flimsy and the front lip can crack real easy....but i still think the kit looks the best of anything out there. So I was just wondering, if i got just the side skirts and the rear piece will those hold up? If they are decently durable, i'd think about getting it....anyone have any experience with this body kit

I heard that Shadows bumper already cracked like a couple weeks he had it on. Fittment problems is another big issue because of low quality.

I would say just wait for a month or two or eight...Shadow's kit will be coming out, and it should look as good if not better than the Sarona kit, and it'll be much more durable. It'll be worth your wait and investment.

Peace

Re: Qs about Sarona Body Kit

My rear piece cracked 6 days after the kit was installed. Never hit anything, it just stress fractured on a seam. Ange had one of her sideskirts crack, and MAJEJA basically shattered his front bumper. None of the pieces are durable. And don't get us started on the fit...

it sux indeed.. sorry- tired to typing..

Looks great, but tons of headaches from the time the shop test fitted. It's a joke. Paper thin fiberglass material (cracked one sideskirt already). Nothing lines up right (ie- fender linings had to be zip-tied).

One of my clear corner popped out of the front bumper and hanging on its wires while I was on the road b/c the fitment where the corner lens fit onto the front bumper is slightly larger that the lens itself.

Pain in the A$s for any body shop who's installing it I can go on and on about it but that's just the tip of the iceburg.
