alright, thats all i'm gonna post since i'm taking up sooooooo much room...if anyone wants to see the rest, they can at http://www.geocities.com/turboburnout/bodykitfin/

it looks a lot better in person than it does in the pictures...ADAM, buy one...give me some feedback on this...i've had nothing but compliments on it

my girlfriend didn't want me to get a body kit because she says my car is low enough already and i have to go slow enough over speed bumps...she also says that it is a luxury car, not a race car so i shouldn't put a bodykit on it (that kinda pissed me off...i told her to tell that to the people that i beat in races)...so now that i have it on, she loves it and she said it looks a lot better than she tought it would

lots of compliments...lots of crowds around my cars...cop magnet...got a speeding ticket yesterday for going 44 in a 25...i turned off of my friends street apparently right into a construction zone...i'm driving for about a block and this chevy suburban cop radars me (his radar wasn't on the entire time, he just pointed it at me or turned it on when i passed...then he made a uturn and pulled me over...said i was going 44 in a 25...from where i turned off of my friends street, i didn't see any posted speed limit signs...i was completely nice to the cop and did everything i was suppossed to...he was nice to me too, but he felt the need to give me a ticket...how can i get out of this? my friend is taking pictures of the street w/ no speed limit signs and i'll bring those in...ticket is for 19 over...its a civil traffic ticket...got me w/ radar...does valentine one pay for tickets?

<B> I like the side skirts. The front bumper seems a bit too much. The rear bumper seems like it belongs on a car that frequents the salt flats for high speed testing. the kit looks good but, on a 4 door sedan? I'd have to mix and match...Use the AE front lip, those side skirts, and the Stillen rear lip. </B>

Looks nice! I like the side skirts a lot... the front spoiler would be perfect if it retained the markers and fog lamps.

Is it just me, or is there a bigger gap to the top left of the grill then on the right side? Other than that its an awesome looking kit! The car would look better if it had eyebrows.

MrBurner. Can I use your pics for examples of the kit on my website?

Hey MrBurner........

... the Kit looks tight. And that front spoiler is awesome, do you plan on putting in some aftermarket fogs? Congrats and enjoy.

Hey... Looks badass. I just have one request, could you get a good pick showing how the rear fender? I might get this kit but I'm concerned about how far the rear fender sticks out.

nice

That looks really great in the sterling mist. It looks very fluid and futuristic. Nice job.

wow...lots of questions to answer...i'll start from the top

areX...in the front and all along the sides there is about 6" clearance (this is with eibachs) and in the middle of the back i have about 10"

max2kgle526...yeah, you can use my pics on your website

sascuderi...i live in arizona

pmp-n8a...i know...when you look at it right next to each other, they look flush, but if you look at it from a distance, the paint from the bottom is a little lighter...i'm a little bit mad about that but i doubt they will repaint it for free if i bring it back...any suggestions? i don't want to fork over another $400-500 to get it repainted since it is so close already...i'm just nit-picking, but i did notice that too...it's not that noticable though when you just look at the car...unless you stare at it for awhile like i tend to do

prince nismo...i had aftermarket fogs on my old bumper along w/ my stock fogs and i think this kit looks better without them...i've seen all sorts of body kits with all sorts of fog lights and i personally like the look w/ no fog lights...i don't really like it when they have fog lights behind the grill either

punkdork...







alright, i just measured it and it sticks out 2.5inches...that is at the bottom at the widest part...i measured from the edge of the tire to the edge of the kit and the stock bumper sticks out a little past the tire...if that is what makes you not like the kit, it really does go with the lines of the body and looks much better like this


thanks everyone for your comments...keep 'em coming

well insurance paid for $1250 of the kit and i ended up paying 450 out of my pocket...the total cost was right around $1700 which is about the same as kev paid for his stillen kit (if i'm not mistaken)...the kit is $695 + $120 shipping or if you just want to order it piece by piece, it is $295 for the front, $295 for the rear, and $225 for the sides...shipping is $120 whether you just get one piece or the entire thing so it is a much better deal to buy it all at once and have it all shipped at once...so the kit was $815 incl. shipping and the shop charged $850 for install, paint, grills etc....i brought them the material for the grills but they claim it was a lot of work to put them on and mold them right...they had to sand down the bumpers and everything, take the old ones off etc....different places will give you different install prices...you can only order this kit from spoilers etc...checkout superstreet magazine or sport compact car for their monthly advertisements

Well Mr. Burner

Ill have to admit that kit is way tight!! Im lovin it. I dont like the back too much, but over all this thing kicks a**. Its a real aggressive look that I can appeal to. I did notice like you said the paint coloration, but it shouldnt be too much of a biggy. Hopefully if you ever get it done to match perfectly Itll be even better. I say dont touch it, only to the trained eye a person will notice it. Great Pics man. Love the Kit. It even looks good with the OE 17" rims!

I agree

I love the front and the sides....I would have to do a stillen rear on the car. I cant rem who said it....but I agree....the back looks like it sticks out past the tires and looks wierd. I do love the front and the sides though. I like the stock rims....but a car looks unfinished with a body kit and stock rims. NEXT MOD: NEW RIMS!!!!

Looks great!
