Are you fitting it to your car tomorrow? Please let us know how it goes. I'm in socal and if this guy is local I might consider one of those front ends.

Thanks,

Victor

The second one is a VIS kit. I have done tons of business with VIS Racing before and can't say enough good things about their products. Have any ?'s about quality/fitment, ask me. In my sig are some pics of my old Civic with VIS bumpers and hoods. The hoods are exceptionally nice.

Yeah, I want to get the GTC front end. That is a great price. Still have to buy the 99 spec combo lights. I would like to know quality and fitment also.

Edit: This is the one I was talking about. Different company.

That is the best price for a front fascia I have ever seen.

Awesome.

Check out that link that I posted above. The front end is $299, but I think it looks better than the VIS one. Looks more like the GTC bumper. What do you guys know about Extreme Dimensions? Good fitment/quality?

Nope, just got off of the phone with them. They also don't have any other pictures to email that show the kit.

don't ever buy from extreme dimensions.... two friends of mine own a speed shop, they ordered 3 different front ends for three different cars.... all were crap, broken, or didn't fit at all right. One was the entire front clip conversion for a 240 and it looked like they'd taken it out of the mold too early and there were sections of the fiberglass that had sunken in and cured.
VIS however is a great company and sell quality kits
