Well Kit arrived today and to answer my own question as well as letting anyone else know, thie kit is ok for the money , but make sure you have some fibreglassing capabilities , because at this stage the componets are not bolt on items , there is a lot of finishing of and trimming to do, hope this helps anyone else looking at purchasing the kit ❗

Whats left to do? Drilling and stuff? or do u have to make the 'bolt' faces on the guards?

The price u got for it though, new without any cracks is pretty bloody good compared to other manufacturer prices.

good stuf look foward to pics ect of the donor car kit ect

I wish all i had to do was drill holes..lol, but not so lucky, bubbled gelcoat , so lots of filling and sanding , all the components have only had the excess fibreglass from the moulds roughly removed , so lots of edging to do, so yes you need some fibreglass expertise or be prepared to pay somebody to finish them of correctly 🙅

If fit is a prob remember you can slowly bend and for to fit... We had trouble when we did ours many moons ago but putting some bolts in and then letting it sit in the sun for a week or so and then forming pushing some more allowed us to get a great result.
