Anyone have experience with Duraflex body parts? (Page 1/2)

Was looking at this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fo...8:g:t80AAOSwL9tbdWYj

Wondering if anyone has purchased and how was quality, fitment, etc.?

Thanks for the reply and info. My main concern originally was the shipping costs from CA to FL, but now after reading that review, I'll rethink my bumper choices!

To give you an idea how absolutely crappy the Duraflex/V-Fiber kits are:

We had a long discussion on these Duraflex body parts a while ago and the consensus was they they don't fit without major modification work. I spoke to Duraflex and they actually confirmed that the fit must be done by a professional fiberglass man. In other words buy their parts but don't expect them to fit. In most cases we've seen the parts come through too large. If you decide to buy these parts make sure that you have a good supply of fiberglass cloth, resin, Bondo and then add a weeks worth of labor.

They are a cheap body kit, cheap body kits don't bolt on. However, the biggest red flag and reason you shouldn't purchase it is that you've got no clue what you're purchasing when all the pictures are photoshopped.

This is another issue. I've seen people order the kit and the body lines are missing, the turn signal recessed areas are flat along with other problems.

I haven't seen posts on people installing this brand. I notice still around i would steer clear but have some nice photo shopped fieros if it was all real, ready to install we would all be copying each other. Glad you still got it delivered and would expect to do fitment work on any kit as always have done.

Are you bored or something? You keep replying to threads that are 4 years old and are dead.
