Yea I came across this issue. Neither front nor rear bars will fit. I was thinking of buying the Full Race front bar and oil cooler solution and just deleting the rear.

Yeah, I'm not too surprised. The full race is a good option since it lets you integrate the oil cooler!

How does the Varis kit fit? Any fitment issues?

The narrow body kit fits like a glove. Widebody, not so much. I think the biggest issue is you're adding fiberglass pieces with other fiberglass pieces which can cause small fitment issues. This can compound and become a bigger issue compared to fitting fiberglass pieces and mating it with an oem panel. That being said, the fitment is still pretty good but will require some small modification from the body shop.

My Varis Arising II I believe will require a little bit of trimming. Looks like you got lucky if it just clips right in.

Yeah, I had to unbolt the headlight bracket to adjust it slightly but it fit well after.

Update time! I switched out the Mag Blue ZE40 for bronze TE37 Saga since the color of the car may switch to a blue shade. They're not my first choice of wheels but they're a better for me than 90% of the wheels out there. Next, the fuel cell mount is welded in and cage is 80% done. Just waiting for a few small things.
