16mm? Damn that's thick, it must have taken you a lot of trial and error to get it sorted!

I tried to make a parcel shelf out of 10mm MDF and after 20+ attempts at making it fit I got over it and bought another stock one haha.

Just noticed the tyre pic, testing out the boost controller hey? hahaha

Is that an Origin Stylish kit? I have one in white.. Trying to upload a pic now. I have raised it since this pic as the front was way too low and impossible to drive. Besides that, people tend to think it looks great.

Hi David, yea they fit ok but the rear BOTTOM parts that go along the sides and in to the wheel arch are like 1/2cm to short so they will need cutting and re fiberglassing!!! the front hits on the front metal BAR and needs a bit of cutting on the outer points to fit!!!!!! Did you fit yours your self or get a body shop to do it???

No I didn't fit it myself Zac I took it to body shop to fit and paint it. I went there a day or two after initially dropping my car off to give the guy my grill to fit and he showed me the kit when it was primed. All he had to fix was some hairline cracks near the front high beams were it is thin between the high beam and where the headlight fits, but other than that it was all good. Have a look at my profile pic and you can see the fitment is A1...did you get yours from ebay cause i've seen these listed there?
