Default Updated Mastergrade Pics

Here is the link to the pics. Let me know what you all think and what wing/spoiler would be best for it. I am about to get the Visage wing(Kelly's, KCobean wing). http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2249016/1

I think the Vizage type A wing would look really good on that kit, or maybe one of the Veilside Wings (type 2 or 3).

Hmm? I could've sworn you asked this same question before . Oh well, I think because you have a very aggressive looking widebody, you'll also need an aggressive looking wing. So with that said, I'd have to say either the Nismo GT (Replica: EVO-R Type-E Wing), Ings+1 Z Power Wing (Low), Visage, & Veilside V1. These wings are aggressive without actually going to the JGTC style high wings. Do-Luck is also an aggressive option but I'm not sure how you feel about the big fins that hang over on the sides.

Nismo GT Wing


Ings+1 Z-Power Wing (Low)


Visage


Veilside V1

Yea I asked before but I wanted some more input after having better pictures. I dunno it's at AAM right now and all that's left is to put the exhaust system on. Then it's over to the paint shop where it will get stock DB with added metalic flake and possibly a little bit of pearl in the clear coat. Later I plan to ahve the car fully repainted in the Lambo Orange. For wheels I have talked to HRE and Kinesis but I will likely be going with a custom made wheel by HRE(C20 or C22) 19x13 -44 offset in the rear with 355s. Not sure of the size of the fronts yet.

That kit really emphasizes how small the stock wheels are....!

What's going to cost more....kit and prep or wheels?

Kit was bought from Mastergrade who is now out of business. They sold their shop car to try and salvage the business but it didn't work out I guess. Far as kit and prep vs. wheels is concerned kit and prep kicked the wheels' *ss big time even though I got an outrageously good deal on the install/prep. I have also been speaking with the wheel companies on a sponsorship basis so I can't really say that it would be a big difference if they were at full cost. The pictures really don't do the side skirts justice though. They are one of my favorite pieces of the kit but since it's black you can't see the cut or duct in them.

When I got mine it was the only one they had. They probably had some S2K kits laying around since that was their main car. Their S2K kits looked sick too. The fitment wasn't the best and it took Vertex a lot more work than it should have but he did a really good job on the install.

All though I'm a fan of the Vizage wing I think the Veiside V3 will go great with the wide body.
