I'm not to fond of the front or sides. The only thing I do like is the rear end.

Can't wait to see the final product.

Anyone with photoshop or paint shop pro want to "preview" the final car? This kit may look really well blended in.

I dont like the side skirts But I think the front looks good and I really like the rear. I Just started looking for kits and that is the best one that I've seen yet.
Although I have seen a couple Of pics on this forum that look good. Just havent found them yet.


OPEC, your front end looks really good. what kind is it?

Hmmm, I don't like the side skirts either, they're way too large and overdone. The rear bumper makes the car look FAT at the end, and the only thing I like is the front bumper.

Hmmm, I think the kit looks good. They extended the front end and it kinda looks like an MR2.

Finally!!! I love this bomex kit! Finally I can get a J-style kit without paying more for it than the damn car! The side skirts are fat and the back bumper is clean. I think it matches the front. Very nice.....

IMO the classic garage kit looks pretty ghetto.. too uhmm 80s.

I like the Bomex, it looks pretty modern, almost a little too MR2ish, but its nice, different at least.

You gotta look past he color of the car and quality of the pic.

That kit would rule if you saw it on a red 1991 FC.

It basically flattens the lines and gives it more of a stylish look.

I'm all for the NA's going hog wild on the bodykits.

If you put it on a TII and find eggs all over your car, you know who threw them (it's a classic - don't mess with the TII).

I am going to mess with my TurboII, Bomex Rear, RE FC2000 Front, Knightsports (new) Spoiler, not sure about sideskirts yet, the stock ones are decent already. =)

I'll leave the eggs sitting in the sun

Seriously, I like the OEM Areo bodykit that comes with the TII. Side skirts, front lip (2 types), different mirrors, and possibly a rear bumper skirt (I'm checking into this right now).

personally i think that kit looks like ****. it looks thrown together, and DEFINATELY not what id expect from bomex, especially after hearing that this kit has been slated to come out forever and a damn day.

have any of you seen pics of the new C-West kit to come out soon for the FC. i believe ted has some preview shots of it on K2RD. but in my opinion it looks about 300 times better than the bomex kit.

Mike

are you talking about the front end on my car that i sent you the link to for the sleepy eye thread, if so that is a stock front end, with the stock lip spoiler. If you are talking about my avatar, that is the new RE Amemiya front nose.

neofreak...I'm wanting the same front end.. What and where is the best price you have found? What did they estimate for shipping? I think about $1650 was the best I have found without the fog lights. Not sure what the shipping would be.
What is the estimated price on the Bomex Rear?
I'd really like to see what your's looks like when you get it done. Is it gonna be anytime soon?
