Anyone have any experience with this company or know if the kits fit well?
looks clean but the price seems too good.

Search for RaceOn, there have already been at least 2 threads started about them. Here is the basic run-down. They are a distributor for GTP/Importfan and VIS, in other words their kits are knock-offs. Do some research on VIS or GTP to find out more about them personally. I have dealt with a GTP kit before (as I've explained in other posts) and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. Mainly, Search you will find answers.

When they can get some pictures of their actual product fitted on a car maybe, just maybe, I'll change my tune. Probably not though.

That's exactly what I'm thinking. Using somebody else's picture and implying that its the actual product is lame and shady.

the thing is when they get it on the car..they will make sure it fits perfect like a mother fucker..spend hella hrs making it fit. and will take a pic at the end and it will seem as if it fit like a glove on first try when it didnt

all companies do that..GTP is a fine example.

I guess that's the type of fitment that hours and hours of modification will get you with GTP..

I get what you're saying though. You can't really tell just from looking at a picture of a bumper sitting on the ground, so the only thing better than importfan's or raceon's pictures are pictures taken by someone who bought the raw piece, but I can't really blame anybody for not wanting to be the first to take the plunge.

Actually... Yeah that's pretty much how nice it will look after HOURS of work. Before that it looks like a paper mache' project from a 2nd grader. :fruit:

if you're planning to drift with it on, why not. if you dont want to spend hours working on it, dont get it.

exactly. i feel much better about cracking a $150 bumper than a $600 bumper that looks almost exactly the same. If I was a JDM trailer queen, then why not get the original, but since i drift and will most likely fuk up and hit something at some point... i dont see anything wrong with it.
