Wait a sec lol. Didn't you used to have a huge *** wing DVH?!?!

hahhaha, well not that big steve, you seen it before, jsut the FX designs combat one...it was free so i took it.haha..those were my early days when i just started tuning, i was young and stupid and never knew what was best for me...lol

thats pretty much the same case with most people, I always loved cars with bigazz wings, but even the type-r wing on my own car sometimes looks ugly to me, but it looks good in a way that it was actually designed for the car and it DOES WORK!

meh.. not my style.. i'm not into the bodykits and flashy stuff. But you asked for opinions and not everyone has the same taste. I don't know who you are talkin' to but flake in the clear doesn't happen..

ah unpainted body kits the horror the horror

paint it and remove the wing and it will be good

Yes yes it is. I don't understand why anyone would want to install a unpainted kit... That is well... RICE! Just do yourself a favor and not install it intil you have it painted.

#1, been in the body/paint industry a number of years, and HAVE PAINTED GUITARS WITH FLAKE IN THE PAINT before, it's not the god awful big gunky flake I am going to use, it's a medium density flake that you can buy at HOUSE OF COLOR and can be sprayed with a #3 tip. #2, the pictures were taken the day that I fit the kit(hence, "here is my car SO FAR") and How can I paint the kit before I put it on when I am going to do it the proper way and mold all the join lines into the body for a nice clean look. hmmmm. can't take them off or put them on anymore. well maybe I can rice it up and leave the lines clearly visible. anyways, when the paint is complete, I will post pics, and you will be able to see the FLAKE IN THE CLEAR(thus giving paint depth by the way) and how nice the molded bumpers and side skirts will look. as for the wing, personal preference, I feel the styling follows the cars lines well, looks better than those rice aluminum wings that you have to be going at least 125 mph before they will have any effect on a car, and it is one of a kind as it is off a nissan 300zx, and I custom fit it to my car. I apprieciate all the feedback though, good and bad, at least people are looking at my car, and that is what I want them to do. Thx,

Will

Are you sure you want to mold all the bumper spaces? You are still gonna drive the car on the street. Unless you are building a show car it is pretty brave to mold everything. Like what if you mess up your front bumper, or hit the side skirt on a uphill road or whatever. Then you gotta deal with your whole fender being bent to. Just a thought. Although yes it does look better molded. Just is more scarey.

I figure no matter what I do, as soon as the car is painted, someone is gonna ram their shopping cart into the car,(never fails), so I'd rather go that extra mile. besides with the extended coverage I have on the car, I will let the insurance agency deal with that if it were to happen. the paint is going to be very tough to copy, so I would be dealing with that hurdle anyways. This is my toy, next thing I will be working on is L.E.D. tails.(custom fabricating) If they work out, I will start producing them(for all cars) and I figure the price to be around $150 cdn which is way cheaper than the $600 u.s. ones that we got for my g/f's civic (mind you we only paid $250 cdn because they were damaged, but they are the only ones in Canada )

LMAO Pimp the system.

oooo LED tails.... i like what im hearing

btw nice car, cant wait to see it painted

Oh for sad... I just don't get why anyone would do that?! Please tell my why you would do such a thing. Seriously.

At least my plates aren't active, so I won't be driving up and down the street:) (except to the bodyshop)

To me it just looks cheap and half *** when you drive around with a unpainted body kit.

Kind of rice, and that spoiler is not very functional, especially on your front wheel drive car. Also adds weight when you should be reducing weight??
But that's just me...
