well, after browsing for some time i fell in love with this picture of a tib with the cadamuro kit:


so after seeing that I decided that I wanted my tib to look more exotic instead of rice..

right now that rear bumper has sold me, and i'll go with a custom dual setup just like they have, but ill mold that lip in. and im trying to decide if the shark spoiler would look good or bad..i will also be removing the antenna completely and smoking the tail lights.

the side skirts im not so sure about, are there ANY other pictures of the cadamuro sides? what else would look good instead? maybe WW skirts like on my old blue tib? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...9/Mvc-034f.jpg

for the front, while I like the front bumper on that cadamuro, I think those 2 extra holes look weird. I was planning on the F2 front end and the same cadamuro hood, of course clear corners and clear fogs also.

i decided to keep the new tib red too, not going to go through all the work of painting it blue, reds growing on me.

oh yeah, and is it even possible to get any of those cadamuro body parts over here? or is it going to cost me a left and right nut to get them from europe

so basically i want some opinions on all of that..heh. let me know what you think

Other than the hood & maybe the wing, I reckon the std Cadamuro kit is ugly. I'm guessing the parts would be pretty expensive to ship out too. Maybe if all those holes were filled-in it'd look better. Like this...


As you can see by the chop, I too was once considering that kit (I even put my number plate on there wink1.gif ). I've since gone off it.

The ATH kit looks kinda "Euro"...


Whatever you do, please don't get the WW skirts again... They don't actually match or line up with anything!

you don't like the cadamuro rear?

like i said im undecided completely on the skirts.

the front, wanna do a chop for me with the f2 front? i don't have photoshop on this computer yet..just got it today laugh.gif

okay, i think after seeing the ATH kit these sides look pretty nice and will match good


so far im looking at

cadamuro hood
f2 evo front
clear corners
clear fogs
maybe ath evo skirts
i want something the cadamuro rear but don't want to import it and spend $1000 ... so something similar ....... hmm
maybe shark spoiler
shaved antenna
smoked tails

then im getting a bright ferrari-like red paint job

ive got only $2500 to spend

go for it man. you and me have exactly the same taste but you have more patience than i do.

i want that hood soooo bad but i need to see how it looks with the f2 bumper. i love the zefiro evo hood to heck though because the gt headers are practically sticking out of the car. but the rain keeps getting in! go for it man.

also, PLEASE show us pics of your new car!!!

and YES Ferrari all the way man!!! and RED RED RED!

I know they're not quite like those on the Fezza but the "Talon" side-skirts are sorta "scooped". I know PSC still has them for sale on their website.

Ia agrea, The F2 looks great with the ath skirts and rear:
Now have someone to add the scoop, and change it to red.

^ It's easier for the Poms to get those parts... (meant for gsasha's post)

I've gotta say though, the more I look at them, the less I like the ATH side-skirts... I never liked them on Zoe's Coupe either. I reckon the ATH rear lip looks 100x better when moulded too; Like on Long's car fing02.gif

EDIT*: Come to think of it, I reckon the Evo front bumper looks better on a clean Tib (without a bodykit) with just a Shark spoiler or Evo spoiler & some nice rims. Eventually maybe some Type-R side-skirts like on Jaws021's car but that's it.

I like the F2 bumper with the ww side skirts. they dont match up perfectly but once molded they look great

i like that rear also. molding it will make it look awesome.
