I don't like the rear at all. Looks way too boxy/contrived. I'd like to see more picx of the red Z front end--it looks pretty good @ that angle, but I need more shots.

thats not a Z :fyi:

unless they changed (literally) every body pannel on it... i thought that at first glance too, and the side windows give a look like it could be a Z, but im pretty positive its not. the main thing that determined it wasnt a Z for me, was kind of a small detail... the door handles . if that is a body kit though, it would be an expensive one seeing as how it includes front end, headlight conversion, new hood, new doors, new side skirts, rear quarter pannels, probably the hatch skin, the rear bumper... pretty much everything but the roof.

but i thought the same as you did when i first looked at it . in fact, i did a double take lol. the white car i think could be a Z, and if it is, it should be destroyed. and regaurdless of what it really is, whoever put that hood on it should never be allowed near a car. ever.

the wing and back bumper is hideous but it would be big points if you entered a Z with that kit on because it's Top Secret!

Lots of interesting opinons.. Thanks guys. Initially a few of us had mixed feelings on this kit at first but I think it has grown on everyone since. Also to clarify, the front longnose and the sideskirts are nothing new. We are introducing the 2008 hood which is available in Carbon and FRP, the rear bumper in FRP, and the rear trunk spoiler in FRP.

That kit looks pretty gross. The red supra with lambo lights looks even more gross.

I guess one way to ensure no one knocks off your product is to make it so ugly that no one wants it period....

TS should stick to making classy lips and kits with clean lines that accentuate the car.

All of our newest products will debut at TAS with a few of our other concepts... pricing to US is still TBD but we will let you know when there is an update. There is definitely more to come! Thanks for all the opinions as we do love feedback.

this one's not so bad. at least there's now an option to the 2007-2008 hood. can't wait for others to start coming out. i'm getting bored with the stock hood on my 07.

Yeah this car is the ORC car, it is "twin-charged", both turbo and super-charged. Needed a bit of creativity for the hood!

Top Secret makes top notch stuff, but I'm not a big fan of their aero parts designs.
As for the rear, I will just stick to my TS rear diffuser.
