first bath with new bodykit

Hey, just thought I would post some pics of my new bodykit. Just washed her for the first time.



I am waiting for new rims, don't really know what I want, was thinking about some TE37, but for the size and offset I need it is going to take me some time, also, whenever I do decide to order it is going to take 3-6 months for them to come in. Sorry about the poor picture quality, my digital camera is crap, I will try to take some better ones with a friends camera.

I like it. You get that from Chuck? It'll be nice when you get the wheels on it.

I like the hood and the wheels, but not a big fan of the kit. Guess I'm not a big fan of kits in general though.

Looks really nice. But I agree that you need some wide wheels to go with it.

Damn, it looks like someone made a kit car of a replica of the FD using a Fiero chassis. Isn't that ironic?

a lot, don't want to give out an exact figure, but you can probably figure it out. Cost of kit, basically repainting the entire car, 99 spec lights, rear diffuser, hood, gas door etc.

It kills the smooth lines of the FD but to each his own.

I don't like the way front fenders are cut off at the doors. They would need to sell the doors also or something to widen them. From the front it looks awesome, but from this angle I don't like it.

Nice kit! The craftsmanship looks awe-inspiring. I'm personally a fan of the veilside C2, but that is a savage kit
