ait TS kit vs real TS kit
hey,
what is the main difference between the ait top secret kit and the real top secret kits? the price of the ait is wayy better, but what about the quality/fitment?

legitimate TS stuff is definitely super high quality, but with that comes the price tag, which you know.
the AIT is a fine kit but takes some work to make it fit right, so you can't really take it out of the box and expect to be driving with it w/o a body shop doing some decent work to get it to fit.
the price and fitment are the two major differences

I have seen AIT kits with no work done, just paint and install. Looked good, can't really see any defects if there's any. I have the same kit but I had more work done on it to make it perfect, including custom brackets on the bottom to really secure it down. I also had the surface block-sanded so it's smooth, to take out any small bumps/dips. Either way is fine, just depends if you can find a good shop that can do the work and how much money you want to throw at it to make it perfect.
If you're in So Cal, I can give you the shop's contact info.

So does it mean that if i get the real TS kit, i can install it myself without having to go to a body shop to do something to make it fit?
I am curious about the fitment of the real stuff as well.

umm... no.... but they don't come painted??
oo ok, cuz i read somewhere in the forum where someone installed it himself, its on a white car... gotta find it sumwhere...
So, other than paint itself, the real TS fits perfect?

I don't believe that real TS is a perfect fit. It needs to be painted as well. So for the amount of money, you be the judge.
