Re: Carmate anyone!?
I'd be VERY wary of Carmate, a lot of members have had problems. They are cheap replicas and in most cases near impossible to fit

Carmate = fail
however there bonnets have been known to be sweet
as for bumpers etc try DMD the image excellent quality and price is fair
do a search for carmate in regards to kits here and you will see why they are dodgy

Re: Carmate anyone!?
Agree 100%. Just my opinion but that is probably one of the ugliest rear bars I have seen... it looks so tacky.Kustom_FTO wrote: btw, don't get that rear bar![]()
As for bonnets, as most people have said already Carmate bonnets are generally fine... just their front bars / bodykits can be troublesome to fit.
If you like the vented bonnet look, take a look at this one on dstock's car. I think it's from Carmate...

Search this site for carmate and you will soon see what absolute crap products, they supply.

Re: Carmate anyone!?
Your one of the lucky ones...
My VS style skirts were way off... My panel beater has never refused to do anything to a car (and he use to make his own body kits), but he said they were beyond hope.. He would have had to cut them up, and only used them as a guide...
Even when I took them back, you could seek that they were also shaped like a banana in one section...
