I have my vents and im doing mine in 2 months.......the only problem is that you cant mold it in if its your daily driver, it will crack. Its going to be segmented so you need to find a really good body shop. If you look at the nsx its also segmented so it should not look funny. I tell you right now its going to cost you an arm and a leg to do this. Its not an easy job.

Why the cracking if they go on your daily driver? Sounds like a quality issue. Educate me, please.

the car vibrates when you ae driving.......for some reason when you try to mold large pieces in the bondo will not hold because of the vibrabration and cracks. I checked with about 4 different body shops and they all told me the same thing.

Not only that but the body flexes even under normal driving as all unibodies do. Sometimes I hear mine creaking and flexing when I go up inclines at an angle.
