    Are body kits for the 202`s a pain to install???

    I am looking into getting a body kit for my 202 considering the install won't give me headaches or drain my bank account trying to install it,

    I want a more aggressive look to my car...

    Thanks Guys!

    Lol, I have that body kit in my garage. It's better than the extreme dimensions ones because it has way better mounting hardware/provisions. However this products ships from Europe. And you WILL receive it damaged. It will require you or a body shop to do some fiberglass repair.

    That kit looks great on white W202s. Someone on the German W202 website I believe has a white car with that kit.

    If you wanna know how much of a pain mounting a fiberglass front bumper is, talk to me. Mine has been a nightmare to keep fastened down.

    WOW really eh? I know fiberglass is fragile but I have lots of body work experience so as long as it doesn't show up in all bits and pieces I should be okay. What was damaged when yours arrived?
