All of these fiberglass kits require an awful of "tweaking" to get them to fit right. On a positive note, the beauty of fiberglass is that it can be easily manipulated in order to achieve the right shape and/or fit. Whereas, polyurethane cannot. Therein lies the problem. With the exception of most of the oem parts, I've seen several after market kits that were manufactured in polyurethane or PURIM, wherein the fit was atrocious. Now you have a real problem, because there's really nothing you can do to alter the material to make it fit properly.
