Has anyone seen or purchased from this company before? They seem to have almost everything.. even the kaminari front airdam.. or is it just a replica?

Heres my 2 cents about that kit.
Front - I Love it. Sits pretty low too which is nice.
Side Skirts - Pretty nice, but need to be molded.
Rear - Ugly.
Now heres the problem with the kit. If I wanted to just get the front, it wont work because the lines on the car won't lineup anymore. The front will be super low, and without sideskirts or a rear those will appear higher. Now say I buy that front and the same sides but use my old rear which is this:
But with this rear the front/sides will still be lower cause this rear is designed to line up with the side of your car WITHOUT you having to use sideskirts. Why do they make things so complicated??

if the difference is less that 2 inches, nobody will notice... The lines don't have to be exact... My side skirts are actually slightly lower than my front and rear and it looks fine....
The rear on the top kit is pretty ugly. Just too bulky. I do like the front though... I think I'll get that one whenever mine gets taken out by a curb... Side skirts also ugly... You got the right idea on the other rear...

I think "wow." is an understatement. Haha. They screwed us over when they made this kit because unlike all the other kits, if you want the front, you HAVE to buy the rear and sides to get it to even somewhat line up right. Whats worse, you can't use the other kit's out there that have sideskirts and rears cause those are still higher up. Why do they even bother selling the parts seperately? Fail.
Don't get me wrong, I love the look of the kit especially when it's molded in. But still.. too much hassle/money dealing with this kit.
