www.quwhees.com has all the info, except no way to get in contact with them. They still haven't contacted me back and I e-mailed them like 2 months ago. but I've heard if it's a daily driver it won't hold on for very long. also, there was another site that had it. it was part of maxtuning??? website. not sure on which magazine it was. get the september issue of Super Street Compact and it wshould have some information on it. I'm getting a custom kit now for less than a thousand bucks shipped. I just gotta finish saving up the money. good luck on your kit.

www.importfan.com has it. Gotta email them for pricing. They sell quality kits, good fits, only problem is it's gonna fall to pieces before you get it home Unless you trailer it everywhere.

You guys help me understand why it will fall apart. Is it because the bondo will crack(because there are other alternatives to bondo), or the bonding agent will not hold at top speed, etc.

well basiclly there are two parts to this kit. the parts that get molded onto metal and the parts that get molded onto urethane... so the first parts to crack will be the parts molded to the urethane.. this is because urethane bends and moves... fiberglass doesn't. secondly fiberglass doesn't hold to urethane to well, even if u use bondo or somthing else. the second parts to crack or break will be the parts molded to the metal. now this wont happen as easily but trust it will happen. bondo and fiberglass hold better to metal than urethane but its still really not that good. and when u hit bumps in the road or go up driveways and the body flexes the fiberglass doesn't so thats why it will crack. and believe me I have severl things on my car molded... and they have all cracked.. do to one circumstance or another.. now if the car is drvien a lot, then maybe it wouldnt be such a bad idea, but seeing as its the QUWHEELS... well all I can say is BLAH... nasty lookin. get the kaminari or get a custom one made.
