No idea mate, but I would like to know why they dont use a picture of a customer/demo car with it fitted, things like that always worry me, however i know a lot of people have used epr and have had a good service/product and they sponsor quite a lot of drift cars etc

Thats my concern. i know when i did the fd i went through 3 front bumpers before i found a decent fitting one and this is supposed to be a cheap drift/track car so dont want to waste money.
Of course if anyone is selling an aftermarket kit please let me know:Thumbsup!

Trouble is most people who have bought from them reckon the fit is really poor so id rather not take the risk

ep racing......their kits are made in taiwan so i have been told by a very reliable source.....i cant comment on fitment though.....got to make your own mind up.

what makes me laugh is they show pictures of laeeqs old car on the site and its not even the bumper they are selling in their kit......stupid!!!!

I\'ve got an GTC nose from EP Racing - and the fitment and finish is pretty good. Having said that, I\'ve never fitted a kit before, so don\'t know what to expect!

I am sponsored by EP Racing and have been sent the BN Sports kit... the rear and side went straight on.. there will be multiple pics tonight/tomorrow of the kit fitted properly..

but the skirts and rear went on nice and tight (not extremem pressure) but just putting them in place.

The front however was unfortunately warped in the container and is gonna be a ......... but the quality looks awesome, just a bit of fettling on one side.

I was also using the replikit bodykit copied from pete taylor last year and the majority was actually good fit. the front bumper however was shocking and the sideskirts didnt fit with the wider front wings i had (dmax) so they were an arse too.

I also had a 100% legitimate D-Max kit from japan on my nissan 200sx.. the fit from that was exactly the same.. fine in places.. shokcin in other.

I feel i have enough experiance to say ANY kit you buy that goes perfecvtly on everytime is v v rare. Its all aftermarket so it all needs minor fettling. Just avoid stupidly thin and cheap ebay turds. common sense, :)

lol yeah sorry guys the old kit went to a sponsor who is now building two FC\'s after loving mine.

One for track and one for drift.

Update on the BN kit. Its bad ass!! :D the kits fitting was not as bad on the front as i initially thought.. it was part of the bumper bar and some excess moulding on the bumper stopping it from sitting right.. the skirts and rear bumper went straight on after some mild fettling as usual.
