So I'm the only guy who thinks the Fortune kit is a disaster? And this is coming from someone who actually likes the recent D1 type Veilside kit!

i personally think every veilside kit is a disaster. i hate them all, althought theres one thats ok...well the only one that doesnt make me run and cover my eyes ill put it that way.

i dont even know wtf is up with that hatch...im speechless...at 1st i thought it was some weird reflection of light but as i i scroll down no theres some weird ****** think going down the center of the window


does that wing come attached? at 1st i thought thats wat this was about. i kind of like it.

I would like to see it without the wing, painted, and with dark tint on the lexan windows before I judge.

Not True at all...Lexan can come Tinted. Thats probably MR10 material....I used to cut and shipall the lexan sheet to customers. Its a pigment added to the raw material before extrusion. It has to be ordered though

The fortune kit is one of the few veilside kits lately that I thought was halfway decent. But man that hatch is wierd. Kudos on having something original though I guess, probably won't see many of those stateside.

It's ok overall.

The thing that I really like is the headlight kit

Love it

Pretty sick! Question though, what's the procedure for the glass with this kit, does anyone know? Does it go over the stock hatch window or are these custom panels. If so, acquired where?

If weight savings was the primary goal, I'd say there are better options that would weigh the same, or less, and offer much better visibility. If you want to know what everyone else thinks, this will be jarring experience. I'm in the camp that does not like the looks - especially with the absence of the rest of the kit.
