Equipment does not display on Romulans?

Greetings,
I recently started a Romulan character after having been away for a bit. I had banked a fair amount of low end gear in anticipation of the new faction, including some kits and armor.
After getting to the point when I could use the Mark II and III gear, I pulled them out of my alts bank and sent them to my Romulan. I noticed, after equipping the entire crew, that none of the equipment will show on any Romulan character at all. It shows up fine on my Fed Borg BO on the same crew, but not on anyone else.
Is this a bug, or is this something that only works on Fed characters and BO's?

Fed "costumes" are more or less a pull over shirt and pants. Romulan and KDF uniforms have shoulder pads, chest gear, belts and all kinds of accessories.
The kits was not designed around it and causes major clipping issues when you get the higher tier stuff.
Since the kits go on top of your outfit they just wont work.
They would have to design KDF and Romulan specific versions. But the spend their time on designigng birds for events
Hmm.. I may be doing something wrong then. I can't even get the kit to show on my Rom at this point. Could be the Mk 4-6 stuff I can use just doesn't have enough to show, or is conflicting with the uniform somehow.
I'm with you on the Fed bias thing. It's always been like that though. They could have done it properly had they wanted to, but never cared enough to do so, despite the players asking since launch.
You'd think with the ridiculous prices they charge on the C-Store, they'd be able to afford a couple of people to do it.
Thanks for the answers folks.
iirc the early stuff is little more than an arm/leg band depending on the type
dont forget the sunglasses noone wears!
It's also a great ground set with a Grenade Launching shotgun.
Oh and Helmet is under head type for some reason.
Now Romulans and Remans really do need a version of the Honour Guard uniform as their own.
If I ask you a question it is not an insult but a genuine attempt to understand why.
When I insult you I won't be discreet about it, I will be precise and to the point stupid.
The hallmark of lazy, complacent coders. With all the money they're raking in overcharging people for ships, etc.. on the C-$tore, there's no reason why they shouldn't be working.
Same thing goes for the ridiculous color bugs present since Beta on KDF and now Romulan characters/BOFFs. It's odd that Fed side doesn't appear to have the mysteriously linked uniform parts that change colors together, but they can't be bothered to fix it elsewhere.
Coders don't get to decide what they spend their time on. That's a management decision. If management tells them to ignore the bugs and make more ships which players might spend money on then that's what they have to do - even the industrious, meticulous ones. Ditto for pushing content into release with known bugs.
This bug is actually older than most people might think. It was in Champions Online before Star Trek Online was even released.
