Default What do you guys think of this front body kit?..

Hi guys, so I am looking for something to dress up the front of my black Z. I was going to get a billet grill, but then I decided that it might be a bit "ricey", so I decided against it.

I then thought I'd get some type of front body kit piece.. and I found this on Ebay..

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03-05...QQcmdZViewItem

I'd like some opinions on this. With shipping and all, it would run around $140. Do you guys think it would look decent? Is it worth it?

You generally get what you pay for.

so it seems that the general opinion is not to get it. Thanks for saving me the hassle guys

With that said, I really only want a front lip.. any opinions on what I should get? I don't want to get too crazy, and probably will hold off on the side skirts and rear for this summer. I just want to dress up the front a bit without getting ricey.

There is no trick at all. The seller just want to pay E-Bay less money, that's the only reason he's charging more in shipping. He has to pay e-bay a percentage of the sale not from the shipping. I will get it if I was you. OMO

exactly. You guys that holler "scam" on the shipping act like it's not there to see plain as day. By having the majority of the cost wrapped up in the "shipping" charge, the seller essentially gets more of the total sale (instead of jacking up the price a bit to make the same amount).
