can't remember who the kit maunufacturer is but I have to say that these kits are truly awful IMO. Esp. the chassis.

I swapped the wheels and tyres, added the window mesh, hogged out the arches, lowered the suspension, ditched the kit nerf bars and added my own, added side rub bars and added the drilled out sheet alloy grille.
