Rocket Bunny Fitment
 
This is for those who have the official Greddy Rocket Bunny V1 kit.
Honestly, how was the fitment on fenders out the box? Did they line up well? Were there mods to be done or bending of any sort? Understanding that the kit is FRP, it can't really be bent much, but was there any sort of trimming to be done to make the fitment better?

I'm just wondering because I hear conflicting answers and I want to know before I place an order and try to chop up my car and rivet it on myself.
Some people say that there are slight gaps (like millimeters) at certain parts between the over-fenders and the body even after riveting it on.

Any pics would be much appreciated!

with the gasket material installed, there are really no gaps. without it, its never been enough to worry. usually the fitment is pretty good. both v2 kits i have done were pretty much spot on, and the varis kit i did was 100%, but the cost is way more.

Mine fit really good. But I had it professionally installed also.

If there are gaps, even MM in size then the kit wasn't properlly fitted by the shop or owner/installer.

Just copy Nakai's RWB look and use black ruberized sealant over all the gaps. :) It can be removed from the paint if needed and looks great*
