I was browsing and was wondering why this body kit is so cheap. I usually follow the rule, you get what you pay for. Does anyone have this kit and had problems? Also, Has anyone had a FMIC with this kit? Just wonder the quality of the kit and any known headaches. Thanks

i believe i heard the plastic they use is cheap and cracks easily.

 

I wonder if theres a way to reinforce it.

 

Alot of time and fiberglass.....

 

damn cause thats the kit i was going to get

 

i said i believed it not that it was fact, i did a little searching and maybe i was thinking of a different kit. some people have said they have the kit and they liked it. search a little deeper than i did and you will probably find out more than i did.

 

A friend has the same kit.. looks nice on his 86.. Worth the money.. Do they have the kit in-stock?

 

seems pretty popular, however, i've noticed more guys getting the version select kits. i think they're sorta like gp sports replicas and made in japan.

 

For that price, i'd have to say go for it. When parts get marked down that much, they are usually clearing inventory and may no longer carry the item.

Nice looking kit.

 

I agree. they are probably not going to make them anymore..

 

Bomex **** is made in Taiwan.

BoMex isn't the greatest body kit in the world, but isn't **** either.

I have a bumper and it fit really great. I did have to sand and fill in pin holes, etc. from the mold process.... Not a huge deal.

That RE-A stuff isn't a whole lot better and for the cash the BoMex is the nicest there is...thats really cheap... I'm not a fan of the sides or rear though, just the front bumper with a rear defuzer is what I have..

Were driving 13-20 year old cars here, so don't break the bank.

 

Could you send me some pictures? also What didnt you like about the sides and rear. Im looking at the bomex pictures and it looks nive from the side profile, but it looks like the tires have been potoshop to fit in there better.


THis is what the kit and below it is what Im looking at doing. Tell me what you think.


Im going to shave the handles and the side trim.

 

I like what you've done with that picture, a car done like that would look good.

Here's some pics of a full Bomex car I saw on eBay a long time ago.

I personally dont like the Bomex front end, but it does allow more air in to the car than the stock front end so it's a good choice for a FMIC.

 

Sorry DOUBLE POST

 

SORRY DOUBLE POST

 

Ya, i dont like the front end to much. Im looking at doing this to the front end. To give it a rx7 feel again.

 

MUCH better than stock Bomex, you just designed one of the best looking kits ever seen!

 

Thanks

YA i got to have the FTP lights

 

I like it alot, but has ran a FMIC on it?

 

it looks like ***.........that's why it's so cheap. ANything that takes the FTPs off is ugly IMO. It just takes away from the car.

 

front does look a lot better if the ftps were there but you could always fab some **** up the only thing i dont like is the rear

 

Thats why IM going to keep the FTP lights.

 

I thought there was something missing from that bomex kit, i just couldn't tell what.

 

that looks fuggin good with those ftp's in there. otherwise the bomex kit is cheap beacuse its ugly and low quality.
