I want an xp kit on my J and have come across the kit below on fleabay.

Has anybody got any experience of this kit regardless of model? It's more the quality of the material I'm questioning. I'm going to assume it's not a patch on what Vauxhall would provide.

fiberglass copy cheap kit but not OEM quality
dont no anyone that has gone for it as yet
Usually fibreglass copies take alot of adjustment to get a good fit
What about durability?

Stone chip very easily and badly, as doesnt just chip the paint, it chips the gel coat underneath too
Hmmm. Would you stear clear?

Ive fitted many fibreglass kits over the years in the bodyshop, and takes alot of work and prep, usually ends up costing a fortune in labour, people think they will just fit straight on n paint.
It chips easily and badly, and if you catch say a lower splitter on a curb, it doesnt scrape like plastic it shatters.
Last thing I used was a pair of corner splitters on the front of my 320d m sport, got sick of filling chips n repainting so I wrapped them in carbon fibre to make more durable.
Personally, I wouldnt touch it mate
That's fair enough. Cheers mate, really useful!

Good advise there just look around for a genuine kit new or used [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]
I'm hoping for more limited editions to hit the salvage yards 😮[WINKING FACE]
