Yeah, a guy on this forum had it custom made.

Too over the top for me, but it looks like it's made well anyway.

That's not a veilside kit ,as stated earlier it's a custom kit made by one of the members on this forum.

Go to www.sarona.com and you can purchase the pieces individually, in case you don't like the 'shark's gills' front fenders that come with the complete kit.

I tried to find out where I could see this product, and they don't even have a show car at their factory at the moment.

Wow. "TERRIBLE?!?" To each his own. And mine is definately NOT the veilside kit.

But I am the co-owner of this design, and the story on how this developed is long. But it involved me, a person on this board by the name of fryy, and Sarona.

I also sell the kits in pieces. Please note that the "Full" kit advertised on Sarona.com does not include fenders. their full kit means $1690 + $450 for fenders. My price is $1700.

The individual pricing is:
$575 front bumper
$575 rear bumper
$400 fenders
$400 skirts

and we are developing a small roof lid spoiler, similar to the e46 hamann kits.

roark,

sorry you have not been able to see the kit in person. Until last week, when i starting to sell the kits, i was the only 350z with it. and since i use the car as daily driver i can't leave at Sarona all day. But I will be at the CT meet as well as possibly at Nopi Nationals.

Matt

Hey Matt is the new bumper much closer to the ground then stock, or is your car lowered?

I am just a little concerned with scraping the front bumper.

Thanks

thanks!

I made it a point when designing/scultping to make sure it was not too much lower than stock. Its 0.25 inches lower to be exact. and my car is not lowered at all. And not to bust anyone's bubble, but the veilside version 3 kit is a headache. I know a friend here who has cracked his 3 times! and when he complained to veilside they have yet to resolve his situation.

One thing I cannot stand is being forced to drive slow because of a body kit. So i made sure that wasnt a problem with this kit. If you lower your car, then you will be scraping hard! I plan on putting coil overs but will keep my ride height the same as stock. I have the perfect setup now.

I scrape everyday, but we designed the kit to take daily abuse; the lip comes out at the bottom like a shovel, so you cannot see the scrapes. hehe

and the fiberglass is strong, i have had it since december and have zero cracks. ask anyone who knows me locally here, i drive this every day like a honda accord, then race it 1/4 mile on weekends.

For the fogs, they dont come with the kit, and the ones i am using now are hella optix 1000. you can use whatever brand you want.
