How do they get the ftp`s like that? when i tried removing the ftp light civers i was left with some ugly visible mounting brackets, do they just cut em out or aint they actually a part of the bumper, just bolted on from the inside?

So this far we got:
Front bumper : Stock with removed ftp lenses
Front Lip : Lucky Front Lip
Mirrors: AeroPalace
Side Skirts: Gp Sport
Hood: Uknown
Wide Fender: Uknown
Feel free too fill in the blanks or correct the others
If i was too spend so much time putting this kit together, is the car ruined then? By ruined i mean NOT salvegable, i cant pic off the bodykit parts, sand it down and repaint it?

Custom as in, somebody took the stock fenders and rolled em out. Any decent body shop should be able to do this. I've even seen threads on do it urself fender rolls.
As far as the hood, reverse cowels will suck out air, as supposed to blowing air in. I'm not positive, but pretty sure, the air flow will be alot better from being sucked out instead of blown in. IMO, when I go turbo, I'm gonna do a V-Mount with a reverse cowel hood. Seems like the best way to go to me.

Nope.
Those are stock metal fenders, with the inner lip pulled out.
Then prob. shaved and cleaned up with some filler.
Those pulls are too clean for just a fender roller.
Although its close, but the way those are pulled, its def. body shop material.

It cant be just the innerlip pulled out because u can see that the distance between the fender arch and the fender "outer line" that is just above is gona, meaning its be bent so much that it actually goes into outer line of the fender
