Abs plastic body kits
« on: 23 August 2014, 20:26 »
Hi all, just wandered if anyone had any experience with these plastic kits on ebay?
Has anyone purchased these and what do you think of them?

Cheers Darren

No but it's part of it. The seller does the whole kit or just the separate pieces. Front valance (as in the link) or the side skirts etc.
I just wandered if anyone had any experience with these?
They seem to have sold a few and have reasonable feed back?

Yeh it's hit or miss I bought similar and had to replace the skirts within 6 mths as they bang to crack! I replaced with genuine as you can't beat the fitment! So it's a gamble but many people have had no issues trial and error sadly mate

Thanks Damien, i knew this would be the case. I brought pattern/ aftermarket parts before and they have never fitted correctly.
I was hoping someone on here would say that they had brought one and it was great!
I was worth a try I suppose.

Cheers
