Default Mix and Match Body Kits???!!!

I've been working on what would look good in the way of a body kit.

There seems to be certain elements of a few kits--but not where I would straight out use one manufacturer.

I photochopped the side skirts from Veilside V3 and the rear bumper from Strosek.

Any comments?

I think it looks awesome.. that's the rear bumper that I'm considering. V3 sides may not follow the curve of the strosek. Visage side will work much better.

The V3 quarter section panel immediately in front of the rear wheel picks up the Strosek side section immediately behind the rear wheel.

I'm trying to create a look that is different yet complementary.

I'm also considering using Stillen's V2 bumper with this side rear combo. Below is a bad photochop of that combination. Sorry for the quality, but I have not been able to find better pics.

I guess you can get away with it, but the side is curvy, whereas the front and rear's got linear lines. I'm also mixing my kit and I'm making sure everything jives, perfectly.

I also mixed and match - starting with the Veilside V1 wing. I was going to go with all V3 around the bottom but once I saw the skirts in person I decided they were way to wild.

Im mixing and matching--
I started by getting a Veilside V.3 Hood, and then I was gonna go all out on Veilside stuff after that, but I liked the Impul 933S wing better than the Veilside V.1 so I got that instead and that changed my plans a little.

As for skirts, Im still sticking to the Veilside V.3, and possibly the Veilside V.3 front as well, but I have others in mind as well. Maybe the Do-Luck. For the rear end, I like either the Impul, the Ings, or the Italian one that is speed-racing has been showing pics of. Oh yeah, and I threw Sarona Fenders on there too.

As of right now, Ive only purchased the Wing, Hood, and Fenders. Still saving up cash to buy the bumpers and skirts.

That is my mix/matched bodykit.
