Are there any plans for daily driving the car still? Or is this going to be strictly a track car for you?

If you still plan to drive on the streets, I'd say Chargespeed. W/ the Anceltion, be prepared to get the Fast and Furious comments on the street.

If I were you, I'd also consider the CWest N1 Kit or Long Nose. Also look at Top Secret. Like mentioned before, I'd look at a kit that is readily available.

I think Anceltion is the more aggresive.
I'm different than most. I don't like the canards on the Chargespeed.
And I agree with MethodRN. Driving the Anceltion around town may draw more attention than you want.

I don't really like either, but I'lll stick with the ChargeSpeed. The Anceltion looks a bit too "out there" and just isn't as clean. I like the rear of the ChargeSpeed a lot though.

It will be daily, but not as much. On the weekends mostly after that mod. I'm not worried about the locals calling me Fast&Furious with comments, they know what my other car is and its reputation is.

All of those others I do like as well. But I am really hoovering over the A or the CS kit.

I want to be "out there".

Do you think it would flow if I mixed the ChargeSpeed Front and sides with the Anceltion Rear? Or is Anceltion's rear to aggressive for the ChargeSpeed front and sides?


PS....Anceltions rear really adds gravy to it. I love it the most of all the parts of the kit.

Its such a personal choice.

For me, the Anceltion is a little too much so I picked the Chargespeed.

anceleration should come in some sick wide body form like mastergrades or something... that would be a good lookin kit if they did that.

Both have nice attributes. The Anceltion rear is nice.
I personally would go for the Chargespeed if I could delete the canards.

^ you have to _add_ the canards; the front doesn't come with them pre-installed; they're ordered under a separate sku.

in case you can't tell, I vote CS

Actually it might not look that bad if you mixed the kits. The Anceltion rear mixed with the low and long front will make the car look like it's sprinting. Another thing that might look good is single exhaust. I usually don't like singles too much, but with that rear I think it will make the car look like a real drifter. Maybe you can get something photoshopped to give you and idea.

+1, the anceltion looks so agressive! the charged speed doesn't look aggressive at all imo, especially if you dont' get those canards. I wouldn't get either kit for my own car, but both are nice. if you want aggressive anceltion is it.

I think you should also consider the Top Secret Type 2 Longnose. I think it splits the difference between the other two kits you're considering. It's not as outrageous as the Anceltion kit, but is still aggressive, IMHO. I personally like the front bumper and side skirts a lot better than either kit. Also, you can get a real diffuser that is functional with the Top Secret kit (which would be more useful for your racing intentions). Here's a few pics and a link to the page. What do you think OP?

Edit: BTW, I think the Top Secret front and sides might look really hot with the Anceltion rear.

Blasting cones will damage your kit as well. Both of those are made quite well but they are thin like any good japanese kit.

Which ever you decide you might want to zip tie the bumper on to break away when you clip a few. I also think the charge speed will be more aerodynamic.

I was just looking at that, and you are on the money. That TS front would flow a lot better with the Anceltion rear than the CS kit's front bumper would. That could be the combo I'm looking for. It has enough rough edges to match the Anceltion rear.

I think I have concluded that the Anceltion Rear is a MUST HAVE, wouldn't most agree? So, Anceltion rear is definitely the selected rear component. Now I was on my way to work today and also thought about this front end bumper:

I wish. No, I just used that one as an example, because those are the wheels I want. I have a Chrome Silver Z.

By the way, I want to thank all that have voted and provided feedback thus far. Very positive feedback, and I really appreciate you guys help.

Funny thing was, before I made this thread, I was thinking "I'm SOOO....setting myself up to be flamed". But I forget I'm among generally mature people rather than over on my Scion forums where most of the people are teeny boppers..
