Question Venom XXL Wide Body

What do you think of the Venom XXL Wide body kit? http://www.ibherdesign.com/indexE.html

I thought it was odd at first but its growing on me. Kinda looks like a skull kinda. What do you think? Thinking about a wide body in the next year or so but I dont want one thats all over and unique.

EDIT: Looking at the Weber sport for a nonwide body kit if I go that route.

I like the sides, cant say the same for the front or back. Even blended the flares look like they are tacked on (that could be from the blending maybe, could be more gradual). Just noticed the dual spoiler, not feeling that either. Its definately a hot kit, and definately a head turner, I'm lookin forward to getting the vertex kit myself.

guys..the kit really does look good in person...here is a picture from the side.



as for the fenders, if you molded it and painted it the same color, as the rest of the car, you wouldn't even be able to see the body line.

I painted mine that way for the contrast

Most of the long nose one look like a screwed up carp. This one looks good. I realy have warmed up to it alot.

Wouldn't be able to see the body line? I don't understand, the kit has very sharp and distinct lines and I really don't think it needs the help of paint to make them stand out. I know I have different taste than you and respect your taste but I would have painted it all black or dark blue, I would have put some wide *** rims (probably HRE's) with a gaigantic lip in the rear, I mean isn't that like 50% of the reason you get a widebody kit?? to have oversized wheels? LOL maybe not. Also again this is my opinion but i'd get a large GT carbonfiber wing and have it sit low because that helps accentuate how wide it really is. Also I guess i'd have to see your car in real life to get a better feel for it. But I really dont like the graffics lol I could never stand tribal. I'd only rock graffics if I had a sponser and could write their name across the sides all pretty and put up a few other sponsers. I remember one 350z from here most people are probably familliar with; the guy with the Meguire's decals and INGs+ body kit. Now that looks good. Anyways I think im rambling, please don't take my comments wrong as I'm just putting up my opinions and everyones is different. Nice job on the car and I bet you get complimented a lot.

Its just a odd kit that doesnt flow at all. Look at the edges of the fenders. They are about three inches tall! Look like someone cut them off. Now to the front bumper. WTF were they thinking! Long nose and the bottom part sticks out way too far. Now this is just IMO so dont take it to heart!
