Erebuni body stuff... a good deal $?$

So it seems the erebuni is going down the craper and they are unloading all of their stuff...

This is what they have for our cars... [URL="http://erebunicorp.com/ge/mazrx786.htm"]http://erebunicorp.com/ge/mazrx786.htm[/URL

What do you think anything worth getting?

Personally I was looking at the front bumper from the first kit.

887HS could make a nicely vented hood. I could not find anything else. Maybe the canards cuz they're so cheap.

After closer inspection it's seems it's fiberglass but it's still nowhere near a decent quality hood.

no, I want a Real D-MAX hood. Most of the replicas I've seen don't have the top vents which maximizes the cooling effect.

HAHA, finally found an english version. I saw this in a Japanese magazine a while back and I've wanted that hood ever since.

I just grabbed a shotgun style body kit ... for 349 shipped ... I DONT think you can beat it... new .... maybe I am wrong but we will see.... I think I will fill in the holes on top though when I install and paint it. Thanks for the link. When I was talking to him he said he sold all of em in the last few days. I got one of the last 2 left... they are most likely gone now.

Yeah but VIS is more of a louvered style if I recall.

CHRIS_RX-7, OMG I think I lost my vision. Your sig needs to die. Also, you need to fix the link! (hint: it needs a bracket at the end)

I'm a fan of their 373 wing for the car (ya know, the Supra-style one that everyone else hates)

I wouldn't buy a body kit there, though. The first kit, that you like the front bumper of, has a hideous rear bumper. Seeing as you can't buy the front bumper separately, and you can find front bumpers for less than the cost of that kit on eBay, I wouldn't buy any body kit they offer.

the VIS drift hood doesn't have the top vents (which is the most important part of the design of the hood). SO why spend money on a useless product when a better one is out there? MAybe if I wanted it to look pretty and didn't want to spend the $$ on the shipping of a functional item then I might consider it. The VIS site mentions nothing of the cooling this hood does but they make sure to mention how they prepare it so it's nice and shiny. Function > form for me
