Anyone who tells you that their fiberglass kit will fit with minimum modification is full of $hit. Fiberglass is fiberglass, it never fits perfect or even that close. Definitely not worth while to do it diy like I did. I should have just saved time by taking it to a shop...

I have an Octane kit bodyshop said it was the best fitting kit they ever put on. It is fiberglass too. Don't think they had to cut anything either
