Can a person DIY install this? Is it a lot of work to get this kit to fit perfectly?

Dennis,
Any chance you could get them to make a version with the license plate down low?

So yesterday some guy with a screen name something like tigershark (can't remember exactly what it was) comes along and posts about his new line of tigershark stuff with a link to his site and a newspaper article.. He's not a forum vendor and the post gets deleted. This Detroit Steel guy subsequently does this non vendor a huge favor and posts this thread here like they are the second coming, totally ignoring the fact that an actual PAYING FORUM VENDOR has been selling them .. for months now.

This thread sucks. Total slap in the face to Dennis.

This is always a tough question to answer as it all depends on what you may or may not be able to handle.

They will ship in a primer finish ready for paint. You could yes possibly handle the installation but will still need to get it painted.

As long as one would follow the install instructions provided correctly then there will be ZERO issues for fitment. We have NEVER had an issue with the TS fascia for fitment in all the years of selling them.

I would prob say this is highly unlikely to happen as it would take a new mold to do so and this is not something I see happening I am sorry to say

Innovative Solutions is the company who makes them for Starcraft....
Starcraft owns the molds to these and any purchases at some point have to come through Starcraft if they are indeed actual TS fascias and not the knock off Duraflex kits..

I did happen to get a call from Starcraft a week or so ago asking me if I knew anything about a company selling the product like this as the company who was advertising them had not purchased anything from Starcraft themselves or at that point had no info on a company claiming to offer them....



Another order was placed just yesterday as well for a front fascia no chin spoiler heading to AZ shortly..


Thanks for the support

FYI AS WELL

We are $749.99 for the front fascia and the as mentioned non supoprting vendor shown is 800.00.....

Thanks everyone and as always anyone has questions or intersted in more info I am a phone call away

Dennis, thank you for the explanation. I will definitely call you in a few weeks. Do you also sell the rear fascia for the Tiger Shark? And I will need to get the double din mod done too...! So hopefully will be getting in touch with you in a few weeks. I have my eye on a C5. Hope it happens for me.
Best regards
