That is one WICKED looking ride!!! If Bayou's hatch won't stay open, it's possibly 'cause the support struts are in need of replacement.....Manny

I got rear-ended and had a body shop put the FX rear kit on. They said it was really a pain. I'm sure you know that there are 3 tabs under each taillight, that's all the attachment that supplied in the kit. Nothing at the bottom of the bumper or where the bumper meets the fenders at the sides. For the bottom you need to frabricate some metal brackets, otherwise as soon as you get up to speed the wind will probably catch it and you can say goodbye to your bumper.

<BR>Hope this helps a bit and doesn't deter you too much, because it looks really really good. Pics soon

Hey, <P>the only reason i didn't get the back bumper, is because like what u said, it isn't that much different. what i wanna get is the pakifeifer rear bumper, but thats next year! but for sure don't wimp out on the side skirts, they make a huge difference, i saw one mx-3 here where i live(a black one) he's got the fx bumper and rims, but his car just doesn't look that good! the side skirts are a must!<BR>later!
