Even my wife is telling me if I don't get the real kit she won't put her money towards a replica. This is all I want is it too much to ask

If you can afford it, then you should definitely go for the authentic part :tup:

But here's my shine amuse rep rear fitment. I'd say it's pretty damn good.

I'm trying to find the difference between the one above and yours

This is the authentic amuse. & I do see that the gap between the hatch and the rear bumper is larger on the rep.

100% due to the installer

You can easily fix that

I have no gap, lol

Also, on the one you posted at the bottom of page 2, I think that was a really crap fitting kit, you can see the shadow of the hatch on the bumper. Looks like the bumper is flat while the hatch is curved

And on the sides. Holly molly is that bad.

Thanks for learning me guys. I'm coming from a rock crawler. It's different not caring about the exterior of your rig to the exterior being a crucial part of your build. I like the attention to detail in everything around here. What kit do you have?

Both of us, if I were to do it again, Fly1 FTW.

Fly1 over Shine? I have done a lot of reading on the forums but it's always random stuff and honestly only negative information sticks with me. I know to stay away from GTM and EVO R for different reasons.

I am sorry I have a lot of questions but I just started looking into aero as when I bought my Z I was going to focus on performance but I am thinking aero first considering the performance I want is going to cost more then a house.

I've seen 1 Shine, mine. And a bunch of Fly1 stuff. 2 advantages forum sponsor, and I can call Lohit, text him, PM him pretty much 24/7

DEpointfive0 02-21-2015 12:16 AM

Oh, for the record, I don't have a single Fly1 piece on my car. 0.

I'm a huge fan of supporting forum sponsors, for plenty of reasons. Thanks again for all the information. I'll rep you both when I get home.

Last question I swear, the picture I showed of the amuse replica and single exhaust. Judging by the license plate it's a custom Fast Intentions
