I have never liked anything Buddy Club. But I have to say other than the rear bumper being a little weird (not matching to the rest of the car and it), it does look VERY nice.

According to the body shop... it took some work to get it fitted right... but with enough effort (and $$) they can make anything fit. I think they said they used some fiberglass to fill in some of the gaps.

I got it installed at Cerritos Auto Body in Artesia, CA. I paid around $800 to get it installed... but I don't know how much more of it my insurance might have paid for since they covered the paint for the front bumper (I was in an accident before I had the kit put on)

Man, that looks freakin' SWEET. But yeah, I think that kit has been known to have fitment issues. Looks like it was worth it though.

meh, i dont really like the kit. but that's just me. the body shop did a good job fitting it. Scion_jon had such a big problem with his that he ended up getting a new OEM bumper because he couldnt get it to fit right.

Yea... I'd recommend Cerritos Auto Body... Roger, the owner, is easy to work with and they pay great attention to detail (just look at the fitment on this kit and the paint in comparison to some other BC2 posts).
