ughh........gross!
I don't like it at all, look slike they ripped off the cuda rear bumper. PLus it's a "vader" so who knows who good fitment will be. It is very hard to mold real carbon fiber to the exact position of the curvature of the car, and I doubt it would fit easily. Big waste of money imo, but that's just me

I think the body kit looks bad @$$!!! But i love carbon fiber though. The kit looks like crap on that car, but hopefully by the time i decide to get a body kit there will be a good one that will fit right.

ok a little info the body kit fits perfect the sides were only placed on so they could be taken off when the car is repainted. The are held on by one screw on each end. The hood is a new style hood has vents in it up by the widshield. (more new style hoods will be out soon) The fenders are still being made they wont be here tell next week i beleave. The rear was just an idea they threw together and deffinatly looks better in person. The rest of the kit is a copy of my old club gtr kit so they are copied from the real deal.

Mod Edit : Don't Double post.
I guess ya'll found out one of my many little secrets i am working on

Club GTR front and sides, looks like Cuda rear. Why they picked that kit to make into carbon fiber is beyond me, but at least they're finally making it avaliable to us (Well, some of us).

And you all can see how sh!tty the sideskirts fit:



I dont think its theyre fault, if they used originalt Club GTR sideskirts for a mold, because thats exactly how they always fit on my car. Looked like @ss. But I guess they shouldve spent time to fix that.

Holy sh!t! Someone actually wasted precious carbon fiber on a something totally unoriginal? Wow. I wouldn't even pay $10 for that kit. Fock...if you gave it to me for free, I still wouldn't take it. That's the most hideous, unoriginal, waste of money that I have ever seen.

Someone please tell me that's C/F tape and not real C/F!

Even after 2 kegs and a 24 pack, that car will still look ugly...maybe even worse.why.gif dead1.gif
