where ya find that? oh nevermind i found it bomexusa.com , i think it's still gay. who designs this ****? i think it would be cool on a n/a though. on a turbo no way. thats like a smaller ic opening then stock. back is sort of gay too. you couldn't even modify that bumper to make it look good.

i do like the sides though thats about it.

I know, I'm still struggling with the rear. I like the no FTP look though.

oh man, i hated that kit when it wasnt painted, now that i see it painted i want one, very nice looking

that is the stock hood they didnt redo the hood its a stock opening lol

the only thing i would like is to keep my FTP lenses, i think the FTP's make the car look more agressive IMHO. how much is that??

the rear end looks badass, but I think that the opening on the front could be bigger, maybe the bomex license messes up my view, but I like it, just wonder how it would look w/ a RE Amemiya FC2000 front or if that would ruin the lines.
damn them!

erebuni?
I saw one in person this weekend at SevenSpeed, had a erebuni wing and rear, looked good, but pity it couldnt take any frame twist at all and started to crack the paint. But it looked so nice. Yeah I think that wing would fit w/ that kit well
I wish a company would make a better quality version of that wing. Oh well
Also a low-pro GT style wing would fit.

I think the kit would good on a car with shaved moldings. It wouldn't look so "added on". The front looks reallg good, but the small opening for an FMIC would need to be cut out a bit. I still think that is the best looking rear wrap-around I've seen.

Look how close the wheels are to the fenders. WTH???


I hate those wings. The "Regret" sticker is there for an obvious reason.

I'm doing mine myself, to save money. I am still deciding on the material to use as filler. The pieces from front wheel to rear wheel won't be too bad, just pull off old molding and fill, but the front and rear bumper will be a task.

Sorry guys, I'm not getting mine locally. There aren't ANY good shops in Lansing, but I'll ask the guy if I could get a deal on 3 of them. He's gonna hook me up as a favor for a friend, so it's like I'm getting it from a friend of a friend, but I'll definately ask and see what he can do.

I kinda like it, but I like the Corksport front end better. (even though it almost looks stock) I'd also like to see a back bumper made for a single exhaust...just to be different.

Now that I see it painted, I don't like the front. Without the ftp's it kinda reminds me of an MR2. The rest is good though.
