Fiberglass kits do, and will fit, easily, and theres no reason they should not, as long as there made correctly, and the molds that are used are made correctly ( which unfortunatley is rarley the case nower days )

If you pull a product out of its mold before it has time to proporley cure it will warp, if theres noo much resin in certain areas , it will go bad, If the molds not thick enough the end result wont be as good.

At the end of the day, it all boiils down to peole taking their time making proper molds, and taking pride and time in producing the final product. If you do this there is no reason a product should not fit straight on ( thats assuming the original product the mold was taken off fitted in the 1st place.

I know of companies who have had hundred of pulls out of the same mold, and they still come out as good as the 1st one did.

I had a buddy club kit, and I must say the fit was pretty attrocious , took the bodyshop alot of work to get it right , so i know what you are on about !

They're quite slow but they'll take care of you. Just wait for like 3-4 days for a email response. Thats how long it took me to get a price quote through email. If you dont want to wait then just call.

I agree 100% :( :( :(
