Preppy 07-18-2005, 05:02 PM I need to find out too, but for an M Shoe.... And please dont tell me Roadblock in VA, my roommate has had enough problems with him to deter me. jkuper 07-18-2005, 05:07 PM Hmm, I used Al and everything was/is great. Except for the portion where some azzhole dc driver performed a hit and run mod. magnetic1 07-18-2005, 05:57 PM I can get you the StonGard cheap.. and kenkamm can install. Preppy 07-18-2005, 06:42 PM do you guys do the cutouts by hand? SpeedTheory 07-18-2005, 07:14 PM heh i was hoping this was a "spotted" thread with pics. dammit. John V 07-18-2005, 09:16 PM I can get you the StonGard cheap.. and kenkamm can install. I'm not sure he's actually wanting to start a business doing it, but damn, he did an incredible job on my car. All I had to do to repay him was help replace the ball joints and brakes on his Geo... :confused magnetic1 07-18-2005, 09:26 PM do you guys do the cutouts by hand? No, they are precut.. http://www.stongard.com Especially check out the link to compare to the competition. Thier kits are awesome and have very good coverage and cutouts. JohnV, how do you like the workmanship of the kit I got you? jkuper 07-18-2005, 09:30 PM not to mess up your bidness, but i don't think stonguard is a wraparound, hence a crap load of lines. :dunno magnetic1 07-18-2005, 09:37 PM not to mess up your bidness, but i don't think stonguard is a wraparound, hence a crap load of lines. :dunno Actually... opposite of what you said: http://www.stongard.com/sgcontent/compare.asp?point=1 Preppy 07-18-2005, 09:38 PM The only thing they offer for the Coupay are headlight covers... jkuper 07-18-2005, 09:44 PM Actually... opposite of what you said: http://www.stongard.com/sgcontent/compare.asp?point=1 well, there are "others" and there are custom kits I am not saying get one or the other...I am just pointing out I was/am really happy with Al's work. Ken's car looked good too from what I could tell. I have also seen "custom" work on James' old car...that was...ummm...interesting jkuper 07-18-2005, 09:47 PM oh, one more point to add to this - it's a car, it's gonna get chips, it could get hit, cheaper to respray at some point anyway. I won't get clearbra again. Nick had a bumper on M3 covered and he needed a new one. Money wasted. I have to get rear quarter repainted. Money wasted. I had to get a new mirror housing. Money wasted. :dunno JamesN. 07-18-2005, 10:08 PM www.pftfilms.com Skip Vachon is the guy's name. Tell him that James Nichols said he should set up a group buy for the BF.C crowd.

He custom wrapped that thing, and it really is perfect. :eek: The stongard kits wrap all the lines so you essentially can't see them. I'm really pleased with it, it's hard to tell that it's even installed. It is a full kit - lower bumper, upper bumper lip, kidney grille surround piece, mirrors, fender edges, hood and fender tips. And Eric's price on the full kit was cheaper than getting the bumper sprayed, plus it's nice to not have to worry about it. I think it's worth the money :dunno jkuper 07-19-2005, 08:26 AM Ken's M3 install was not a kit.

Are you trying to ad the clearcoat look? :stickoutt John V 07-19-2005, 08:43 AM Wait, did you wrap the M3? Are you trying to ad the clearcoat look? :stickoutt :lol I got the bumpers repainted (they are cleared) and then Ken and I (mostly Ken) installed a stongard kit on it. We didn't "wrap" it, but the kit fits VERY tightly. I was impressed. The lines are barely visible and in many areas the kit did wrap around seams. It's especially tight around the kidney grilles. It's very high quality, well cut stuff. When I say Ken's car is wrapped I mean he bought sheets of raw film, wrapped the car himself and cut the film on the car. It is damn impressive, you basically cannot find a seam on that car except on the hood and fenders. JV dave is cool 07-19-2005, 10:32 AM Get in touch with Raja. He'll take care of you guys. |
