Just got it out of the shop about 2 weeks ago. Have never seen another first gen tiburon with the cuda kit yet. The kit is actually more custom then it is shark racing's cuda kit because it was in horrible condition when I received it. The skirts and wing are molded.




Here is the rest of the gallery.

Nice job!

How much custom work did it take from when you got it from SR??
That is to get it to fit right,... not the molding parts

1st of all, it looks really good. I'm not a big fan of the cuda spoiler, but the rest of the kit tight and clean (and i've never seen the spoiler molded on before...)
i'm just really surprised that SR never got around to putting a place on the back bumper for the plate, YET, they leave that nasty panel on the fron for one... i really hate that panel on the front of the 2nd gen cuda also...

Thanks for the compliments. Really appreciate it. The wing was the biggest problem we had. It was crooked and parts of it were not centered on the car. It took them about 2 1/2 months, mainly working on the wing. The side skirts fit nicely with little to no modification. The corners of the front bumper had to be extended alittle and the rear bumper fit nicely. The fiberglass work that sharkracing did on the kit sucked. Had tons of airbubbles in the glass and had to be sanded out and fixed. I tried to get SR to send me another wing or give me my money back for it but they wouldnt. Yes, the hood is c/f...it is SR's hood. To be honest it fit's nicely and was of pretty decent quality. I have the fog lights that SR sent with the kit but need to have brackets made to support them so that the front bumper isnt holding the weight of the fog's. Again thanks for the compliments.
