INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

This is a high quality aftermarket FRP product. To achieve a professional finish, the following steps are mandatory before installation:

• Pre-fitting: Always test-fit the part(s) to the vehicle before any sanding, priming, or painting.
• Professional Adjustment: As with most FRP components, professional cutting, drilling, or moulding may be required to achieve a professional fit.
• Chassis Variance: Previous vehicle modifications, accident repairs, or age related chassis movement can affect fitment. A professional body shop will account for these variances.
• Preparation: This product arrives in a raw gel coat finish. It requires professional sanding, priming, and painting to match your vehicle's paint code.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is FRP suitable for a daily driven Silvia?
Absolutely. FRP is superior for daily use because it is 100% rust proof. Its lighter weight helps your engine work less, and it resists the warping issues common with plastic parts in Australian heat.

What happens if I damage it on the street?
This is the primary advantage of Hand Laid FRP. Unlike plastic bumpers that are often disposable once cracked, FRP is fully repairable. Any local body shop can easily patch, reshape, and repaint the panel, extending the life of your investment.

What is the difference between Hand Laid and Chopper Gun?
Many mass produced kits use a chopper gun which sprays short random glass strands into a mould. This results in heavy and brittle panels. Our Hand Laid process involves manually layering continuous glass mats, ensuring a perfect resin to glass ratio and higher impact resistance.

Will this be a professional fit out of the box?
No aftermarket FRP component is a simple bolt on like an OEM plastic part. While our moulds are high quality, minor professional adjustment is standard industry practice to account for chassis variance. This is why professional pre-fitting is mandatory before paint.
