Default Body kits legal or not?

Hey i just read the waranty thing for the body kits. They say that the body kits are only for off road use or show only. Its not approved for highway use. Is that true? i know there is a lot of daily drivers with kit. do they get pulled over and get tickets?

what the company/comanies is/are telling you is that they will not assume responsiblity if your car is damaged in an accident, or if you happen to be pulled over, or if your bumper just falls off while driving, lol (last one's a joke btw)...

i doubt that most aftermarket kits (since the majority of people buy knock off kits) are made with the same structural integrity of oem parts (though they indeed could be made) and thus probably don't stand up as well in an accident. that's not to say that if you have an aftermarket kit that it won't hold up in an accident.

i would say it just depends on the kit. if the kit is low to the ground you can get pulled over for being to low.
