OKay. Here is the update. On the first set I got fitment is perfect. Only problem is where we mount the screws. These kit are made of some kind of hard composite. So when you try to drill the screw on the kit it will be very hard or might crack the base of the screw holder. So I have ask the factory to resolve this issue. They have came up with new material for this, more like plastic type and screw holes are pre drill. This will make thing so much easier for us. I'm bringing a set to SEMA show this weeken and see if I can put them on the spondsor car on time. I'll take some photos. Basicly the kit will be ready to go in mid Nov.

Is this something you see you'll keep in stock or a 1 time run for a group buy?

Jay, I searched for an FD at SEMA but I only saw one LSx and apparent an FD at Tokico booth, which I didn't go by. Anyhow, I would like to see what comes of this and await for an update.

Photo of final product. All screw hole studs are made with copper. So when install they will not break easy. Matched with factory parts and all holes are lined up.

If those line up and fit well, that is very nice attention to detail with the copper posts. Well conceived.
