Okay long story short got a Kam kit, got it installed, it's on, it' looks hot, but there are little erosion type places in a few spots and the fender and the bumpers don't allways line up perfect, he says that grooves and imperfections were because of the bumper, that it's hard to paint it because it's practically rubber, he says they heated it up in an over which made it move, and all they can do is rough it up and paint it, I mean I dont' nkow weather he's bull****ting or not, this place has always done good work and has always cost us a ton of money, To get the kit on, plus refinish the fender, and door, and a new fender, and all of it painted nearly 2200.

Are is there anyone that can post pics of their polyurethane kits? How are your paint jobs and how well do the bumper and fenders meet? I want it to look at good as factory, is this asking too much??

I've had zero problems with my urethane Kaminari kit. You're welcome to check my pics listed in my sig. $2200 is a steep price to pay especially since the job isn't perfect.

My body shop had problems painting my kaminari front at first because kaminari fillled in a whole part with some kind of filler so the gasses released and bubbled the paint. He redid it for me and it's fine now... The fit on the sides are because the kaminari bumper doesn't snap in right to those white clips.... those just have to be sanded down a little.
