Cwest looks hideous in my opinion and it just doesn't flow with the lines of the FD.

Burnout or 99spec gets my vote.

Burnout

I used to like the cwest kit when it first came out, but its been played out and looks dated now.

c-west and burnout are both played out, go with the drft set-up and be unique. Get a mix of the burnout and c-west here and its reasonable at 400ish.

99spec is played out to the extreme. I see way more 99spec FDs than C-West. I like my C-west front, but I don't think I'd want to put the sideskirts or rear on.

purerx7 says this kit is played out. (?!?!)

um... how many people even HAVE this kit ??

After much consideration i bought the burnout because it doesn't look like a body kit on my FD.

Hate the body kits or be a hater if that's your thing but doesnt something first have to be common before it may become "played out?"

the body kit "drift set-up?" wtf is THAT ?

then after knocking the two kits, "Get a mix of the burnout and c-west" (what ?!)

"400ish" for a "mix" of two body kits ?? 400 lbs of blow, maybe. 3000+ posts huh ? wow...

to each his own, but dam ^^^ at least make sense

Speaking of making sense...

I was being sarcastic when I was saying the burnout kit was played out because I have it. Chill out, dont take everything so offensive.

I was not ripping on it, I just said it was one of the more common bumpers and I like the looks of the second version better then the first. I dont "hate" either of them, which I never said, I think you have the wrong meaning for the word "played out".

Leave it stock and it will be different than most of the 7's on the road.

burnout gets my vote of the two choices.

Sorry that's not an R-Magic front bumper.

It's the C-West N1 Type II.
