im very interested in seeing how this turns out, i may follow you down this path. i am most interested in the work you'll need to do on the sides.

I have one side kind of on. I screwed it to the stock side. But when i cut the screw down, they got hot so it melted the urthane a bit and pulled out. I'm going to have to use something else. I may use rivits instead. I don't know what to do where to door is though, i might just use pannel adhesive.

If you go with true oem sides, they are a direct replacement. The replica ones just wern't well thought out.

Looks like i probably won't get much done today due to the weather.

Pics of the sides yet? I'll be purchasing these replicas soon.

And what about that other guy from the other thread?
The kit looks GREAT! To be honest it fit very well the bodyshop didn't have to do any modifications to it at all. The inside of the kit does look horrible but the shop "Rhino-lined" the inside of it for me so it wouldn't snap, they said thats the best idea for a fiberglass kit. (random I know, but it worked very well)

I wonder if his shop screwed the sides on directly alone?

Unless the sides are extremely different for the 98-00, it's basically impossible to mount them. From my knowledge though, the sides have the same mounting on every coupe.

I'll take some pictures if the weather gets nice enough to take my stock one off to show comparisons.
