Proposed body kit for my tC

Rice or cool or both? I'm gonna skip that spoiler, waiting for a better selection when i buy the car next year. So far though that kit's the winner. What kinda drop does that look like? 2 inch? i'm probably gonna go with the 1 1/2 TRD drop since its supposedly the greatest buy ever, plus it won't negate the warranty. I fear that the kit would be too high with only a 1 1/2" drop though.

Proposed wheels to go on that
Those wheels are just hot. Figured I'd go with 18's since 19's on this car seem to be prone to many problems (rubbing, bending, breaking, etc.).

So with that kit, TRD 1 1/2" drop , the wheels and it being black instead of blue, whatta ya think?

personally, i like the kamanari kit. i dont like the spoiler.

the wheels arent my thing, but they arent bad. i dont think you are going over the top with those ideas. however, i would say you are right up against the railing. dont take another step.

I don't like the Kaminari kit -- but take that with a grain of salt since I apparently dislike almost all body kits. That having been said, without the spoiler, I think it's OK.

Believe it or not, I actually like those wheels. I'm not sure that I really like them any more than the stock wheels, but I do like them.

That would be a pretty sweet combination. I'm not a big fan of most body kits either but I think that's a decent looking kit. Finding a wing to go with the kit that isn't too ricey will be tough though. I love the wheels too and they'll definitely look nice in 18s. Good work!

Definitely pass on the spoiler. Looks like someone jacked a WRX's.

 

[iGod]

i might be able to help you out if you wanted a spoiler that isnt quite as drastic.

marty, you just blew my mind. you didnt flame. i am so proud of you.

 

[wolo]

We talking spoiler or lip?

 

[iGod]

a pedestal. why? you want a lip, dont you?

 

[wolo]

If anything, I'd go with a lip. I haven't seen a spoiler that's really done it for me yet.

Still need to see all the fun you've been having with your sled.

apparently it is ready for paint now. i was over on sunday doing some work on it, and chris must have finished it. now i need to nail down the paint appt, and pick up the parts from chris. hoping to have it installed early next week. and if the chinese new year doesnt screw up shipping, the spoiler should be back as well. crossing my fingers.

 

[wolo]

Cool deal.

Thanks Damon. I was pretty surprised myself.

Don't like the bodykit....like the wheels tho.

 

[Zygote55]

I really like that body kit...I've been looking at it since it came out.

 

[ND120883]

Well...i enjoyed the input on that. I was bracing myself for vicious flaming. Gotta say so far this forum beats the living tar out of the forums for my accord at the moment. Thx guys.

I'm in search of unique more than anything. Mst likely i'll end up goin with a lip spoiler. I'm trying to get more of a longer look than other tC's.

But ya i agree that this is as close to NFSU 2 as it will ever get.

Inev, i'd love some ideas on spoilers, thx.

This kit is a little ricey, but I really like it. No idea why.

 

[iGod]

yeah, its riding that excrutiatingly thin line between really freakin nice and paul walker. but it stays just on the good side.

 

[FrostbytetC]

I agree. Its not bad. Definitely could be worse. Love the wheels. I had wheels like those on my Jetta before I sold it. They're nice wheels... a little on the heavy side... but study as hell! Good choices. Ditch the wing though!

 

[redwine]

I think you have good taste, though I'd have to see another angle to decide on the spoiler. Yeah, you don't want to go too low.

 

[TeeCee]

I don't like the spoiler. Too much of a shopping cart look but the rest of it rocks.
