I'm not quite sure, but that kit looks exactly like the havoc kit, still ugly and incredibly ricey.

Do you like a certain body kit?

DO you REALLY want to know what other people think of your own car? But you insist on Asking the question, even though you're gonna get it anyway?

Well if so-

Ask away here, and keep the main Subforum free of redundant ?'s and Opinions

Fellas, I really need some advice ASAP. I want a body kit, I can't make up my mind. Its between the amuse or the Ings +1.
So Amuse or Ings +1? Vote away

For those of you who dont know how the kits look (these are not my cars, I hope the owners dont mind).
INGS +1




OR
AMUSE


Which one should I go with????

I really like the clean lines of the Ings side and rear but the front always did look too busy for me. I've seen great combos with a lip kit up front and INGS side and rear. Amuse flows really well as a whole kit. So if assuming whole kit and not mix/matching stuff, I'd go Amuse. Shine makes an amuse replica too so that's always a plus.

Want it (Buddy Club 2 Wide Body), but finding wheels with +18 offset front and -18 offset for the rear is becoming somewhat of a challenge. Unless I go with HRE or iForged.

Here is my current setup: 2006 Z lowered on Hotchkis springs (about 1.5-2 "finger" wheel gap all 4 corners), 19x9.5 +22 front with 255/35/19 and 19x10.5 +22 rear with 285/35/19, Veilside V1 front lip and GReddy side skirts. Something is bugging me about the way this all flows (or doesn't flow) together and I think one of the issues is the side skirts. For some reason they just look cheap on my car. My other issue is having the OEM rear bumper (with splash guards) with the Fujitsubo exhaust. The rear muffler and tips are huge and with the OEM rear it just kind of looks like it's hanging out there.

I have considered going back to OEM sides, but then it seems like I would be stuck with OEM rear (i.e. aftermarket rear might look weird with OEM sides). I think I will be sticking with the Veilside front lip. Any opinions or ideas for sides and rear? Thanks..

EDIT: I am also considering the Nismo rear add-ons as a way to 'frame out' the rear muffler a bit, but I'm not sure whether they would look right in conjunction with OEM side skirts. Any thoughts?

Default What would you change?

Hey All,
Well, I'm just looking for some general feedback on what you guys would change and start doing to my car cosmetically. The front lip is nismo and the side skirts and rear are greddy. I'm not a big fan of the rear bumper but don't know what else is on the market. What types of things would you guys change or add to the car? I know this is a broad topic, but I'm just looking for opinions cause I'm usually not good at mix and matching. Would you guys add clear side markers? Thanks guys! EDIT: I bought the car like this just a couple of weeks ago.

On the clear markers, I would. I know it's just like a little thing but it made a big difference for me for some reason. For me it's those little touches that give your car character. I can't stand those stock amber ones. I've seen people install the smoked ones too but I prefer the clear, they flow nice with the headlights I think, unless you plan to black them out. Your car looks pretty clean already, I like the subtler smooth look myself.

Guess you can start adding small stuff like perhaps adding a B-pillar overlay, maybe shop around for some 06+ headlights and possibly start a paint project. Bodykit/wheels... it's so subjective, you just have to look at what's out there and maybe do a search if someone has that combo. Chances are, someone out there has tried it already.

Default Amuse Body Question

What spoiler or rear add on should I go with? Like a full spoiler, lip, or just a cf hatch?

MG CF hatch without spoiler looks the best in my opinion

What do you guys think of this mix...

1) Aerosync front bumper (a subtle lip, not so aggressive that I have to worry about cracking it)
2) Ings +1 N-spec sides
3) Nismo rears
4) Blitz Lip wing

All chrome silver with the front opening on the aerosync blacked out...

Sorry don't have it on the car yet, I have 3 of the 4 parts (still have to pick up the sides) I wish some one had this combo, so I could show you, so you have to settle for your imagination
