Same for my personal experience with Seibon. Very hit or miss.

Varis? I just paid almost $2k for a hood, but it fits perfect. Better than stock, even. Another guy i know got the full Varis kit - the fitment is TIGHTER than stock, to the point where even wrapping the panels caused fitment issues in some spots because it was such precise fitment.

If you wanna be cheap and just get the look, whatever. it's your money, it's your car. Throw money at Fly 1's way, and live with the results.

If you absolutely have to have the look, pay your shop to custom cut your fenders to form those vents, then it'll be the look you want

For WHEEL FITMENT purposes, fly 1 and seibon are a waste of money. Hell, even Varis might be a waste.

Stock metal fenders, rolled and pulled, fits a ton of wheel/tire when aligned properly
