INSTALLED!!! RMM sides & LTuned rear

Trial Fitting:






Installation Day:
It took about 3 hours to install both sides and rear, plus retrofitting the CF insert of the RMM front lip as the replacement CF doesn't come with pre-drilled holes. Fitment for RMM parts were PERFECT, but not so for the LTuned replica as it needed a lot of work. It looks fine but after seeing the amount of work involved now I know why people pay the extra $ for authentic parts... anyways, enjoy:

Outside @ Dixie Collision (Mississauga) prior to install


Painted RMM sides


Painted LTuned rear replica


Install completed! Waiting for Urethane to dry - gotta drive home quickly...

Heheh yeah I'm not too sure I wanna deal with them... but yeah... still looking. I'm still deciding on a back-up plan in case I can't get the C-ONE... any suggestions? The TRD one I was originally thinking of looks too plain...

i've only done simple bolt-on stuff from BC, like my exhaust. Yes, they charged me a lot more than what I can get it for in the US, but consider the shipping, taxes, duties, and installation (local), it was only $50 more... so it wasn't worth all the hassle of getting it elsewhere.

I do know about their scams, but they are authorized 5Zigen and Cusco agents, so they won't scam you on that. They scam you on things that have no brand names cuz you couldn't tell anyways...

also, i watched the entire install from opening the brand new box/pacakging to wrapping up my OEM exhaust and putting it in the trunk..

you gotta be careful whereever you go...
