What parts are you looking to buy? Their fenders, inner fenders, valance and bumpers fit pretty good. I’ve had a few deck lids that fit like crap because they were twisted. They also distort due to the trunk seal. I wouldn’t use their decklids. For a hood I used Ring Brothers. It was an awesome part.

I sold my Camaro and the second owner after me crashed it into a fence the first day he had it. He’s looking at many months to get replacement panels. Something to consider….

Well, I was considering everything that the racing stripes touch. Some of it is dependent upon if I change my paint scheme though. As of now my car is baby blue with white racing stripes. Part of me wants to leave the carbon exposed, but blue with black racing stripes isn't my cup of tea. Given that I may just do a few things and paint them entirely

I’ve got several pieces from them, and yes, there are fitment issues. Also, the quality on some parts leads a lot to be desired. The last part I got from them had numerous bubbles on the visible side of the part. I contacted them and they said that it was normal and within their accepted flaws! Only after I threatened to dispute the charge with my credit card company did they approve a return. Also, I was greatly disappointed to learn that the extreme wait times(sometimes 6 months) was due to their products being made in china. Needles to say, I won’t be purchasing anymore of their products!

I bought a trunk lid for my chevelle it fit fine ...my hood was another deal . They contacted me and told me they had issues with the batch after I bought it ... I fit it to another chevelle and they were right ... I decided to sell both and will be using ultra carbons parts moving forward . They are American made I believe they're in Washington...if not its Oregon
