well your at ilv4nos... i would recommend no one to buy the VIS Octane kit either... there are small cracks in the fiberglass... which will only get worse over time, rough spots on certain areas, plus it looked like it had been dragged on the street!! rest assured, i'll stick with urethane from now on.

i always stare at supermex's octane front everytime is ee his car, and i haven't really seen any imperfections, i guess it just needs a lot of work

hey did you get it shipped? if you did, you can't put all the blame on Jt Autostyle, most of the time is the shipping company messing it up. All car bodykit manufactures check on all the kits before it is sent out to it's customers.. The same situation happen to me I got a kit from Tornactive Designs when it was shipped to me the whole kit was cracked from the handling of the shipment people.. so dont always blame the people is making it..
