still havent gotten my response back from kevin yet...

 

Has anyone installed there stuff yet? Just had a couple ?'s. Did you reuse the stock screws or get something smaller, the holes don't seem to be drilled big enough for the stock ones? What did you use to keep the turn signals green, the stock plastic pieces are not easily switch over? What I'm most concerned with is the gauge hood though, it doesn't seem to be even close to fitting. The cluster surround is fine because the stock hood fits perfect. I think I would have to tweak it enough that I am afraid of breaking it. Everything looks good, so far I have found 1 screw hole that was not drilled, and my passenger door handle has a good scratch in it, just wanted to figure out the gauge hood so I can address it all at once with JKL. Wasn't even planning on installing before spring, but the gauge hood didn't look right so I started pulling stuff out to check.

 

My experience with installing the interior trim was that I had to pick and choose which screws to use to get fitment as close to perfect as possible. It was kinda like a puzzle to figure out but I was able to get all the pieces to fit pretty snug.

just got the kit yesterday well worth the time and stress it took to get it. only one little problem with the carbon fiber deformation on the a/c piece but barely noticeable. great work, cant wait to install it and post pics soon.

 

sorry it took so long. Finally finished installing the kit today, took a lot of modification to fit. the weave quality is great. as for fitment extremly poor the cluster and the pass door had to be the worst of all had to cut and make custom mount for the gauges to fit. as for flushness pretty bad had to sand down some of the pieces to make it sit flush. keep in mind I didnt work on it everyday, only when I had some free time. but looks great, at least I think so.

 

Looks bad *** to me I didn't even know this was going on. Great job.

 

I agree it looks Bad ***!!!

 

thanks guys.

 

Did everyone eventually receive their shipments? Did the fitment improve? Still available?

 

Looks pretty sweet. Didn't realize this was going on either. Would be interested if another group buy came out.

 

I am also intrested if another group buy started.

unless kevin makes some major improvements and start to communicate, I wouldnt recommend it.

 

Oh I agree 100%. I've been following this and other threads for awhile now. I'm sure he is a nice guy but he seems like a very poor businessman. I wouldn't buy unless they were pre-made and someone else said they fit good. Almost every thread I see in here is about people who have sent deposits on product and haven't received any product much less communication...wish Shine would make these.

 

absolutely agree...too many threads out there about bad business...but have heard some good results here so am hopeful..

 

I'm in on the next Group Buy so just keep me posted

 

next group buy? is this even done? Im still waiting for the rhd pieces...i have been asking JKL to built the interior pieces way before this group buy. We have to go through the european distributor (EVEN IF IM IN THE US)

 

Guys we've started a thread in the Shine Vendor Area to make these since the business practices, communication, and quality are better...please post there.
