It's finally arrived. Savage kit to be fair to them. 23 pieces in total. Should give it the finish I'm looking for! Lots of work ahead of me over the mid term break now. I've no experience in fitting these so all advice and tips welcome.

ohhh this should see a big change in the project now....slap it on the car so we can all see what it is shaping out to be. love the back of that aero kit bodykit.

It better be awesome. Changed my mind about that s14 plenum you hardly want to back?

Thanks lad. Have some Japan racing Jr-10 alloys satin black with bronze lip in the pipeline too for this...

Should see a good bodywork update next week now when I get a chance to put some long hours into it

First attempt at offering up the kit today. To be honest I was expecting a lot more from the kit. Probably naivety on my part not having fitted anything like this before but when Aerokit boast that the kit is so good that absolutely no work is needed to it bar bolt straight on I kind of believed them. When you fork out this much I didn't expect to have to reshape all the edges to match the contours of the car as you'll see below.

But anyway rant over, I've been told that compared to others it's quite a good fit so here's a few pics of the quarters which will be the most challenging to fit.





Will need a good bit of sanding to match



Shut line with the door is extremely tight is pretty much wedged in place here
