theres one guy one cardomain that has it on his 2k2. If you look at certain angles, the front bumper doesnt have a good fit... the lights kind of stick out.

Fitment is slightly off, check out this website from a fellow orger.

I think the front bumper is okay, but they need something less flashy for the side and rear. If the front was made of urethan, I would get it.

Actually, fitment might be off very little but it's nice to see these manufacturers make a kit with better fitment. Just look at the ocatne kit and the Sarona kit. Both front bumpers are poorly fitted around the headlamps.

the fitment of the front bumper is unnaceptable imo. the styling might actually be ok in some applications if done correctly.

You need a really big intercooler for that front bumper.

I would just go with the R34 kit. Way better fitment than the Octane.
