ya thats great. but why buy a part that has to be fixed right off the bat because of bad craftsmanship? why not just get a shineautoproject 99spec front end that has been proven to fit?

peace

The Final Konnexion front , Vertex side skirts and rear fit just fine with no modifications
and the carbon fiber hatch and hood fit fine as well and I got the parts through Raceonusa.

Did you buy parts through them before or are you passing on "knowledge" from what someone else has said. thats bullshit to spread 2nd hand info because one guy had a bad experience. you live in CA come check out my car and see for yourself.
I purchased ShineAuto's under tray and was very pleased and I think they do fine work also.

sorry, petite racing has it, and its guarenteed to fit.
and to back myself up, 3 friends, 2 with 240sx's, 1 with a 7, friends with the 240s both ordered some of their fenders and one ordered a front bumper. i wish i had saved the pics from the body shop, but to say the least, it was bad. nothing fit, everything had to be cut and reglassed.
adam with the 7 (not on the forum, dont know why though) got their gp sports kit, again, had to put out as much for the kit in body work just to get the thing to fit, not including paint and all that.
so yes, raceonusa sucks. not saying ALL of their stuff does, just from what i have seen. i wont take a chance with it.

peace

Sorry to hear that magus2222, I guess I am the exception and just got lucky with everything fitting correctly. I actually had a positive experience with the guys at Raceonusa.
When I wrecked my car I went to them and told them I need a package deal for everything and they really helped me out, I had prior dealings with them, with another hood and they used my stock hood to do some molds for future hoods and everything went smooth that time also.
So I guess I have a soft spot for the guys at Raceonusa for helping me out.

so search the world wide web for them! Why should everyone else be expected to do your searching? You are the one who wants to see it,... you find some and post them.

from what I have seen 2 other guys in the US have the bumper. 1 other guy has the full kit. but the car was sold to someone in canada i think, maybe destroyed.

i have never seen it copied before. the white car is RHD judging by the tach placement, so probably not really their product.

Raceon sells it.

Its actually Version Select/Origin VII type.

Fits well. No fitment issues

Just need a heat gun to soften up the edges.

No trimming needed. Unless you have a FMIC.
