I have the RS1, it doesnt fit great, but looks decent. I got it for $300 shipped when it first came out.

Hey Chris (Viniati), quick question on that Sensu kit, I have seen it on a couple websites but it's always a 4-pc. kit, I'm digging the lower-profile WRX looking spoiler, any info on that? If/when it might be available?

We are not releasing that spoiler anymore. The unit was lost in China. Sorry about that one.

it is true that the abs rear lip is bland but i just need sumthing like that to extend my rear a lil bit further down to match wutever sideskirts nd front i choose. The abs rear lip is bland but i cant have anything to big or like too flashy because I have the HKS exhaust and every tC with a body kit or another rear lip i saw at Scion Summer Slam this weekend in NJ had the rear bumper melting due to the exhaust. I havent experienced any melting with my stock rear bumper unlike my other friends with the Megan which duzn't extend as far out as the HKS but yea now u know why i'm interested in the abs rear. I don't like the viniati fierce rear lip because that rear looks more for dual exhaust as shown. I just want a lip with a semicircle cut into the right hand side. Thanks for the feedback tho fellaz

This was asked in a thread a while back but wasn't answered and I think if someone can answer this, it is definitely "Sticky" worthy in this thread; How does Flexfiber hold up in colder climates (i.e. Massachusetts)?

I would be more concerned with the product getting warped due to heat stress.
I'm no expert and my statement is only my opinion but I think nothing will effect it in colder climate. Only time will tell.
Havin' that been said, really not sure about what specifically you're asking when in colder climate.

Well very hot or very cold temperatures cause materials to expand or contract. I'm not familiar with flex fiber so I don't know how it reacts under the stress of a cold New Englad winter. I really like the Buddy Club 2 kit and awhile back I heard there were fitment issues, so if I have to struggle to get it to fit correctly, then odds are very hot or cold temperatures might effect it more than a kit that fits flawlessly. But, flex fiber might have a composition that reduces this effect, but I'm not certain.

And since this is the Official Body Kit Thread and all, can people post some info about each of the kits. Knowing what kits exist with pictures is good, but there are a few things I would like to know about each, like ground clearance, what come with the kit (ie grille inserts), ease of install, quality of fitment, etc.

Any info would be extremely useful I think.

Well, the only thing I could think of is stress due to sudden temperature changes. Like washing your car in hot water under very cold conditions. But, that's only if this flex-fiber material is composed of some fiberglass. Like you, I'm uncertain.
