its an ultimate velocity kit, i can see now why you dont see them around that much.. the company took forever delivering the front, and were still waiting on the back

wheels i bought threw the body shop, (he done me a good deal as ive waited so long)
erm dunno about the rest, got some stuff threw pvd when it was still running. just kinda built up over the last year i spose

cheers for the kind words people, wasn\'t sure many of you would like it. smooth seems to be the way now days, that\'s why im not having the bad boy done, washer jets have been welded up

ultimate velocity

had big problems with them, got a kit for a focus only 3weeks a go, this was a wide arch kit, one side the arches where to long by 3inc the other was to sort by 2inc. the front bumper was bent and had to be sent back the 2nd bumper was 4inc 2 sort. no mesh came with the kit and kit was poorly made if u ask me, we used i would say 15-20 liters of expanding foam on the kit to strength it.

hope u don\'t have these problems m8.

UV kits are shoddy quality - my front arrived promptly within 1 week of ordering but the quality is shocking tbh - Ive seen much better from the likes of Reiger

For starters its simply chopper gunned in its mould - which gives no particular strength

it was 4\" too wide and had to be really bent inwards and chopped up to make it fit

and the emsh that they webnt with it was little more than chicken wire

my front bumper was near enough perfect, just the usual mould lines, no complaints about that, was thick as well
