wow that sucks I have the tein basic coilovers and I got about less than 2 finger clearance on the fenders, how do you do on speed bumps, and pott holes, etc...?


Got it direct from ibherdesign...

if you post up your car on a public forum you are going to get good and bad... go post it on a domestic forums and get flamed from everyone.

BTW: sorry but its too much, it kills the lines of the car...

But its not my car, my money, or my choice... just my humble opinion

that's the only way the kit comes currently. there is no US Spec rear bumper...if you haven't got your kit yet...you'll also get the euro back end

BTW Jakesford.. the lines are preserved ask a pro, lines are not measured with preferential judgement they acttually use tools and technique. I won't argue that with you beyond that...

as far as opinions humble or not they're like A$$-holes everyone's got one.....

ok by a pro what do you mean?... you wanna email it to the designers that worked with the Z, I imagine they are pretty familiar with the "lines" of the Z

I just posted because its not fair for him to jump down other peoples throats for posting their opinions, and yes it is just opinion. If i were being an a$$hole you would know it but i wouldn't do that unless someone is really asking for it.

If i saw a Z with that body kit, and i were to talk to the owner face to face I would say the exact same thing as i did above, so I'm not just being some e-thug. Once again it his is money and his choice, but the styling is not for me.

I will give a big thumbs up for doing a kit that isn't used very often (how many vertex kits are out there) and spending the time and money to have it correctly installed so it looks good!

If you did as much reading as you do writing you would probably see that no one called you an A$$hole, I simply said OPINIONS ARE LIKE A$$HOLES EVERY ONE'S GOT ONE....

as far as defining a pro a certified body repair technincian is considered a pro.... go ask one.... you are just considered over opinionated, an amature aspiring to have a say NOT A PRO. Only people trained in that field will verify such comments.

As far your comment about telling an owner how you feel if you saw him, who cares dude I don't like Cowboy Hats and Boots do I go around telling Texans how I feel about their attire... get a life.... what you are doing is called Hating..........

Obviously he likes the kit how does that incurage you jump down his throat.. or for that matter any one else...

bottom line it is personal opinion...I think it's too early to tell if anyone can say for sure that they dont like it...there are a total of about 5 pictures of this kit world wide and I've posted 4 of them..all either unpainted or from 2 angles..and the 2 images above of the silver car are photoshops, not a finished product.

Once the kit gets finalized(yes it's been modified a little) and installed (nextweek) I'll post pics and then you guys can decide what you really think.

And I think Underdog is right, the lines of the car are preserved, it's just very aggressive...but that's just my opinion =)

the widebody is 8 peices. you can check it out at www.ibherdesign.com.

most people will need adjustable coilovers to run this kit, unless your roads are perfect...

if you are interested in this kit, please put your name in a list and tell me if you're interested in the normal or widebody version.
