Widebody kits

califax · Jan 19, 2005

I caught a glimpse of the SEMA Vegas show and I read about how the TC was everywhere! I am gonna add a widebody kit to mine as soon as I get it, but I wanted to shed some light on the subject and ask what you guys are thinking if anything about widebody kits. The one I like the most is by a company called Import Trenz heres the link...

Carbon Fiber Wide Body

not too big on body kits, I think too many of them are "extreme" and "over-the-top" and honestly, I wouldn't trust a company with a z at the end of their name.

iGod · Jan 19, 2005

you guys and your "z" thing...

too extreme for me, but i can appreciate that kind of stuff for show cars.

califax · Jan 19, 2005

what is the "z" thing you guys are talking about? help me out here im fairly new to the body kit thing. i just want to personalize my tc thats all. fill me in here.

iGod · Jan 19, 2005

oh, its nothing to do with you directly, or the kit. some of the people here seem to have a problem when companies use a "z" where an "s" would otherwise suffice. seems petty to me, but everyone's got their own thing, i guess.

edit : personalize away. i wouldnt flame on you for that kit. just cause it isnt my cup of tea, doesnt mean that i dont appreciate it. if you like it, man, go for it. its a nice kit.

Wide is in! Go for it, If you want a more subtle look wait for the kit that Viniati is developing for the import motion show

shameless promotion.

but it is sick.

I'm a stock kinda guy, if I had the money to do performance mods, I'd definitely keep the sleeper look. That of course is just me, and you did ask for our opinions, I'm just simply not a body kit fan, I think aside from looking cool (sometimes) they are useless.

Genuine58 · Jan 20, 2005

I really like the krazy kustoms widebody kit, but I'm not a big fan of all the carbon fiber....it looks out of place.

I already have like affinity of those.

califax · Jan 20, 2005

thanks guys,

i already saw the obsidian wide body kit. the only drawback to that kit is the fact the wheel wells are too big. they were using 20x8'' i think it and the wheels still arent wide enough for it. i do like subtle though. i liked the 5 axis models kit but i dont want to modify the actual car for the kit. the other manufacturers use bolt on kits which make it easy to change if you don't like them.

The kit is clean, I would get it as long as I got all the goodies underneath to show. I would go for performance first then start dressing the car up. I all for widebodies. anywayz

If I ever decided I wanted my car to look like crap, that would be my first mod.

damn marty. just say you dont like it, or dont say anything. no need to be so harsh.

Labfish · Jan 23, 2005

I think he left plenty of room in there to upgrade his harshness.
