Default Wald body-kits: Good, bad or indifferent

Being chatting to a body/mod shop here in Dubai who have mentioned that they can get these body-kits for the 350Z. He sent me some pics but I will have to post them up later.

He aslo sent me pics of the VEILSIDE kits as well.

First impressions of the Wald kits are subtle, but really do make the 350Z very Porsche style, if you know what I mean.

Anybody got any comments on them or who has them on their Z and could podt some pics up. I am not sure what style of kits they are, but I will find out later.

Thanks in advance for the comments!

I have the Wald kit sitting in my garage. I don't like the Wald wing - $900 and over the top styling. Anyways, the kit is TOP NOTCH quality. Fit is perferct. My brother works for a body shop and said the kit is the nicest he has ever seen. VERY MINIMAL prep work for paint.

I think I am going with the blitz wing, or maybe an INGS half wing if I can find one.

Zivman,

I thought you had bought the whole kit. Did not realise you did not get the rear spoiler! Cool, it was a big big and bulbous!

I like the Wald Rear Skirt, I think it adds some style to the rear end. I'm getting HKS Hi-Power Duals on Monday. So, I had to get the rears first.

The Wald Front Spoiler is still on my list to get along with the KStyleking, Nismo. (the popular Veilside 1 looks good too)
To me the Wald would be a safer bet to avoid damage.
I am leaning towards the Esprit side or Ings+1 or KStyleking. The Wald Sides look stock but a little lower

Here's some close up picks - fresh from the shop. pic #3 has some polen on it.

Looks good. The rear boot spoiler does look too "Porsche" for me. I do like the rest of the kit, have to admit.

i don't mind the wald wing from the front looking back, but I don't like out it is "propped" up from the rear. I went really subtle with the wing I chose:

that kit/car is not mine. That kit is the INGS+1 LX sport half kit. I just went with the same wing - Blitz wing.
