    IIRC that is a picture of an old AZ member with an authentic Oetty kit. I don't trust companies who use pictures of authentic parts to sell their replicas.

    Re: anybody tried this???

    Filment is only an issue if you paint it and slap it on. You need to massage it here and there for a perfect fit. This goes for ANY kit, name brand or rep.

    and anything that flexible is hard to get paint to stick. but i'd give it a shot all i can see though is ur front bumper being pushed in on the freeway from the wind lol.

    you can do that with the oem bumpers also and you have to add flex agent when painting bumpers and other flexible body parts

    I don't think so I installed my rieger without glue with just the 3 screws on the side and once it's bolted down it becomes quite rigid

    the center on the freeway man, i mean if u put pressure on the lower grille area it'll bend in, and not retain that curved shape, on the road.

    They use the same flex fiber method on this kit as most replica kits are turning to. No matter what they call it , Duraflex, Flastic, etc it's basically a hybrid of fiberglass and urethane to retain the best qualities of both.
