I actually saw it yesterday when my Mag arrived in the mail. Im really not feeling the rear, but the front looks kinda hott. I would like to see how the rear looks on a Max with a wing. Wonder how much thyis thing is going for. Think I'm gonna wait to see what happens with the Wings West deal that we're trying to pull off. Otherwise Stillen is my choice over this one.

I know

I already tried to scan it yesterday, but I have a three in one scanner. It only scans greyscale, and when I cut out the kit picture (on my scanner, you slide a picture in to the feeder thing) It didnt look to good. I am going to office depot today and am going to pick up a flatbed scanner anyway, and if noone scans it, then I will. Its an awesome body kit. But before they shot the picture, they should have painted the kit. The reason I couldnt scan it is because of the kit bieng primed. I WANT THE KIT. That rear section looks especially awesome.

I cant scan it

Max2kgle526 seems that he will. My scanner isnt hooked up and so I cant do it. The front looks tight. the back looks alright. Im surprised that hey even built one. Yeah they shouldve painted it. but with it just primed you can see all the depth and curves it truly has. Its a nice kit.. I dont have a 2k but Iwonder how much its going for too.

I didnt pick up the flatbed today. The 49.99 ones were sold out. Thats the one I wanted. The UMAX astra 0100 or whatever it was called. The cheapest one was 79 bucks. I tried to scan it in the feed scanner again, but couldnt. I should have just tore the whole page out. Instead I just cut out the 2 pics and taped em on a small piece of paper. When I scanned it, All you saw was one headlight and a big ugly mark wher the tape was. I just screwed it up. Does anyone have a scanner that works. Why did they put the new bodykit in there right after christmas. #@!% Feed Scanners. #@!% Spoilers Etc. #@!% Retail Stores!

I like the new kit!! Its a drastic change from the stillen kit. This new kit will definetly set it apart from the others on the road. And its cheaper than stillen costing $695. There is sideskirts also, they're in the left pic if u look close. Im getting it!!!

do you know the breakdown on the pricing? i'm guessing that price is not painted...i'm thinking that i will get the rear and sides from that kit and wait for a nicer front to come out...i'm looking at getting the rear first since my back bumper has a couple scratches that have been assessed for $520

I grabbed a copy of the magazine. The kit didn't look too bad. I, personally, didn't care for the tail. The front looked ok. I, too, noticed the fog light issue. It looks as if they prototyped that thing with, perhaps, a GXE with no fog lights.?.? They should have painted the front to match the car (it seemed a different color)...that may have helped my perception of the kit.

I wonder if you could order the front end and side skirts only. Then by the rear end alone from stillen.

I have it scanned now. I would post pics right now, but Im not at home. I dont think the kit is overkill. The rear bumper needs to be reworked. I would by the stillen rear bumper and have the side skirts and front end of the Spoilers Etc kit.
