RE: bought this body kit used from someone - 7/3/2008 6:25:50 PM    importedminds Posts: 177 Joined: 6/5/2008 Status: offline yea i would for sure paint it to match if i put it on, kinda like the idea from finch, keep the skirts sell the bumpers and get lip kits, i wonder how that would look?? anyone good with photoshop??  also the front bumper had a 6 in crack in it, it is in the fiberglass shop right now being totally redone, that way i can either sell it or put it on in great shape _____________________________ Formerly Kahnvict850 96 LX 2.2 5 Speed AEM cai catback exhaust 1 jl audio 12w6 sub, power acoustik amp eclipse cd5444 head unit(best hu i have ever owned!) black housing halos buddy club 2 bodykit(4 sale) 15% tint all around (in reply to falkore24) Post #: 11

RE: bought this body kit used from someone - 7/3/2008 10:16:54 PM    19Accord97   Posts: 3171 Joined: 3/5/2006 Status: offline Idk man!  You got it for a great price, and I love the rear!  I think it looks awesome! It looks pretty much OEM except for the nice looking air tunnels on the side and the lower rectangle.  It doesnt look ricey at all to me, the front may just a TAD bit but IMHO I would put it on if I had one!  Though, it is fiberglass....so you have to be careful.  One thing is that I have seen a few fiberglass fronts that have rock chips in them which loom pretty bad.  However, if I ever got a kit there is a film maybe by 3m but I am not positive on that one?  Anyways, its a clear film that protects paint from small rocks traveling up to 50 mph. _____________________________ Scopin out my old turf......

RE: bought this body kit used from someone - 7/4/2008 7:05:22 AM    importedminds Posts: 177 Joined: 6/5/2008 Status: offline yea the front was a lil banged up and had a 6 inch crack and the fiberglass, probably from a speed bump or something, it''s at the fiberglass shop now being completly refurbished, i do like it, one thing that concerns me though is my cars stance, if i put it on i would surly have to raise my coilovers up to get clearance for it, and my wheel and tires package is setup for no wheel well gap and when i raise it up i would have tons of gap there, meaning i would have to get bigger tires _____________________________ Formerly Kahnvict850 96 LX 2.2 5 Speed AEM cai catback exhaust 1 jl audio 12w6 sub, power acoustik amp eclipse cd5444 head unit(best hu i have ever owned!) black housing halos buddy club 2 bodykit(4 sale) 15% tint all around (in reply to 19Accord97) Post #: 13
