Eh, it seems hit and miss with them. My side blades didn't come with hardware, but it just uses self-tapping screws and some 3m tape.

Honestly, if you're in to modding your exterior, this is the kind of hardware you should have hanging around the house in case you run into mounting issues down the road.

From evo-r directly you get no hardware, from other places like zstore etc, they put in the hardware so their customers are happy with them the zstore. Because if you ordered from the zstore and it came with no hardware or your unhappy in anyway your going to call the zstore not evo-r or whoever makes the product.

That would be what happened with me. Nice that the Z Store does that for their customers.

It's easier and therefore cheaper for the in between companies to just include these types of things. Rather than have to waste time on the phone with upset customers over a few bucks in parts.

My Shine auto kit came in today also. I won't see it till later tonight. I was told ahead of time by another member it comes with no hardware. For the price of the kit I could care less. There was a big chance I would of done it different and more securely which would of required more hardware.

They probably don't give the hardware because if the body kits falls off the car they can't be blamed for it. I've heard of several people losing their lips, etc while on the highway. I really don't think screws and double sided tape is a good idea. Bolts and nuts is what I use.

I'm going to use double back tape with a adhesive promotor on the front section. Then nuts and bolts on the inside of the fender section with plastic washers.
