Okay 3rd generations

my body kit 3 pieces which I posted on my other post, the body kit is by 3D Carbon which is a poly urethane hard plastic, which they press mold to shape for your specific vehicle:

here the pros:
It’s a good product
Will make your vehicle stands out
Reasonable price
I do love it

here the cons:
Never go on the way they say it will and I what I mean by that, especially for the roof spoiler and rear valance, front bumper no issue

So the rear valance the way they have you to install is simple but there only double side tape to hold it other than the two screws behind the tires, so my body guy couldn’t get the valance to stick and stay in place with the tape, so what he did he puts me some black xmas trees push taps to hold valance in place. (See pics) all will be painted

Roof spoiler kind same scenario, for one very very wrap, had to leave in sun and use heat gun to get it straight, he also did me same Xmas trees screws on top along with expy glue for bottom portion

also had my two front doors emblems alignment holes welded, and rear hatch he used special kinds of hardness glue to fill them and will sand, prime to paint

That's not a small job and the attention to detail and quality of the work is impressive. Even color matched the wiper arms :)
