From what I have read most people do not get them because of the body work needed to make them fit correctly. They just prefer pay for the better product upfront rather than paying someone else to make something cheaper fit.

Here is a link to another thread about one kit...

Stay away from replicas , they are a headache to mount . Whatever make you get stick to original , they fit better . You'll pay less when you get it install at a body shop.

To answer your question, just go onto Ebay. There are usually a few guys on there selling replicas pretty cheap. If you don't want to go on Ebay, extremedimensions.com has some too. There are actually a lot of websites that carry the MS replica.

Ha ha... that's not really the problem.

You try to save money and take it to a cheap shop.

The body shop really screws up those replica kits.

Why? Because they all save they can do it.

But they Fxxk it up.

just go original. it will save you the time and headache of fitting and painting while costing mostly the same.
