Then maybe i just got lucky? Mine fit fine together and are just as thick as the origional parts (I should know, i can see right threw where the old bumper cover tore in two).

Yeah, I'm not worried about it not fitting correctly. If it doesn't, I'll ***** and complain until I get a refund.

good luck buying off ebay, those guys don't care how much you *****, and rarely give a real number for you to call

Well, it's technically not WW - it's the Erebuni piece but it's exsactly the same and avalible which is more than i can say for WW. As soon as that comes in the ground effects are compleat. Thank god too - i didnt want to follow the heard and get the xenon one just cause i "had" to. Got a great deal on it too. Gota give NCamaro94 props for helping me out there.
np buddy, you've done a lot of chops for me and stuff, glad I was able to come across a great deal. I also bought my piece. Josh@FTPP is awesome

Exsactly. It's the differant between a $1600 paint job (paint and body work) and a $3000 paint job. Macco won't do stripes so i'd have to go with a custom shop. Epic's origional paint and strips ran me $2250 and that was with no body work.

Personally, I'd just save up more and get it all done at the same time. I'd rather save the extra dough and have the car 'complete', then do the paint, then have the stripes added on later. That's why I decided before that Mayhem wasn't going to get painted till next year. Cause I wanted to do it right, all at once, and get good paint and everything done. I just got lucky that Ryan traded the T/A to a paint & body man and now its getting done for almost nothing.
