If you really want to get custom....you could get some bondo and mold the kits to your body. Then it would look like it's all part of the car and not seperate pieces. Something new, something old, something different!

Zup Chris...okay, I'll try and explain the best I can. If you get a body kit and go to any collision shop and ask them to mold the kit with the body, they should be able to do it. This will get expensive depending on the shop, but it will be one bad ass looking mod if you get it done. Basically, after installing the kit (before paint) the shop would take a high quality FLEXIBLE type of bondo and basically bond where the kit meets the body of the car. Not only would they do this on the outside but on the inside to (under the car) so that you get a very solid connection. Also, you want to make sure the body shop rivets, screws, whatever the kit so that it stays in tact completely with the body. Once they're done doing all the filler and bondo, sand, prime, paint to perfection. basically there will be no kit/body lines and it will look like it all one piece. The only bad thing about this is if you get into an accident or bump one of the kit pieces hard, you will crack the area where it was formed with the body (cracks in the bondo). It's easy to fix, but it's looks hideous if you crack or break it. The reason why it would expensive is because this would be a custom job for a body shop. Any shop can do it..it's just a matter of IF they want to and if you want to pay the extra labor for it to be done. If you know how to paint and do body work yourself, then this is something you can do on your own. Good luck with it. L8TR......

is it just me, or do the cars look like hot wheels in that photo? The perspetive and color make it look like a minature movie set. I expect to see Gozilla stompin' some tibbys any minute...

Anyway...that kit is darn similar to the Gorilla kit, but I'm not sure if they customized it, or if it is a different kit. That Yellow Tibby has the same lines to the front body kit, but there is a lower "splitter" or lip on the group foto yellow tibby that I just can't identify.

I believe Sam is working on pricing for that. Please post your question in the Shark Racing Product Request/questions forum.
