ok...I want a body kit..but Im going to purchase it piece by piece...so Im looking for a front bumper first...but I dont want a p.o.s....they come unpainted...and I know certain ones come blue...because theyre immitations...so the originals come white Im guessing?? Anyway..I want a VeilSide kit...but they dont have one on the site for a '97.And Ive been hearing word that the Ed Type Bomber is a copy of the Zefiro...but I cant find where to get an original Zefiro...anyway..I guess what I want to know is if anyone has any good sites that have kits for a '97

First thing I gotta ask you is to type in actual sentences. The ..... is killing my eyes man. Please. Kit fox used to do that too.

Second, did you search at all?? Look in magazines like Sport Compact car, and check yahoo. Thats what I did and I ended up finding importfan.com.

For a Zefiro kit, you can get one imported by Real Engineering. But Rick typically doesnt like to import just a bumper. Its usually cheaper anyway to buy the whole kit at once.

edit: moving to Exterior because wanted is for sales only.

E.C.Customs--
I would definitely suggest purchasing a whole bodykit, for a few reasons. First off, you'll end up paying more by parting out multiple kits, whereas you'll get the base price on a complete kit. Secondly, when you start mixing-and-matching different kits, you will more than likely end up with the bumpers and sideskirts being different heights. Sometimes you'll get lucky and it won't be that noticeable, but this is also something that can really drive you absolutely insane. Lastly, don't mess around with knockoff kits--they're made to be cheaper than the original. WHY would you want to get something that was MADE to be lesser quality? Knockoffs are not only made of cheap material, but they 99% of them have some sort of fitment problems as well.

With that said, I would definitely urge you to look at the Zefiro "Turbo" or "Evo" bodykits--we have both listed on the bodykit page on our website (www.importshark.com). Veilside is nice, but there are SO many of them out there, especially the knockoff versions. Why would you want to look like everyone else? Furthermore, that Shogun-type look is definitely getting played out. Go for something that has some class--Zefiro!
