Default Still Undecided, DO-Luck Widebody or Vertex full.

I thought I was sold on the Vertex full and then the DO Luck kit came into my view and I am being offered a great deal. I dont know which one to go with.

Here are some pics of the different kits. I hope the owners of these cars dont mind. These are not the kits I am buying, I am getting them new from vendors. These cars are just beautiful representations of my choices.

What do you guys think? DO-Luck or Vertex


The DO LUCK Wide Body





Or the Vertex Full



I know that they are two entirely different kits. I know that you dont see the do luck wide all the time. I just dont know how much you see the vertex full.

I like being original, but I got sick and tired of people talking trash about my current kit.

The Ibherdesign Venom Kit.

I really love this kit and its original, alot of people not in the Z community loved this kit, but in the community, not so much.

You are going to never be satisfied if you're goal is to please the Z community or the majority. Someone is always going to trash any kit you choose. Toss trying to please everyone out the window and start focusing on what you like.

What's your goal? Do you want your Z to look super clean? unique? different?

I want the car to look all three. I don't want it to look thrown together. I want to be what no one else has.

I honestly don't care what others think, but I cant stand hearing that my car looks like RICE or that people would take an entirely different route while driving to keep from having to look at my kit. Those kind of remarks just **** me off.

I have had received nothing but negative comments about the old kit and I am truly sick of it. I want to like my car and want others to appreciate what I have put together. Not to make me feel like a fool for my choices. I think I did a good job putting together my current setup.

Now I agree that you cant make everyone happy but with the old kit. Hell almost no one liked it. Plus overall I was getting tired of it, the remarks probably helped in that department.

If you're still planning on doing a "VIP" look, it'd be tough to pull off with the Do-Luck. Great looking kit, but definately not "VIP".

vertex seems to be the most common kit around. So if u want uniqueness it's do luck by default. Are u set on these 2 options already?

It's your Z, do what you think looks best.

If I had to choose between the vertex and the do-luk, i'd choose the do-luck for sure

Thanks, I sold the kit yesterday to a soldier that is returning from Iraq.

I want to go VIP but I realize that its not possible with this kit. I will keep my aggressive theme if I go with the Do-Luck

I googled this, what kit is this, it doesn't show up when you search it.

My car IS the bottom car on the first post, the one in the grass. That pic was from this past Z days in NC during a car show.

I was set on the Vertex Full when I was offered this new option, and now I am not sure. But yeah, pretty much, unless something amazing came along that I liked even more.

TO be honest. If your going to go Do-Luck only do it if you can get a hold of the entire wide body kit. A Top Secret rear and a Amuse front bumper would be sick. My Do-Luck kit in the OP's post is full 11piece Wide Body from Do-Luck.
Here are a few more pics:

Here are a few more pics:

Def only want to go wide with the entire kit. To piece this together would be difficult and I would be worried that it wouldnt flow. But you are correct, the rear of the Top Secret kit is Nasty. As far as the amuse front everyone has it. I really like what you have going, I want to change up some things but overall, in white this kit with the carbon fiber will look nasty. I am thinking of having the whole car repainted lambo balloon white. (matte white)

To be sure i get everything, what encompasses the 11 piece kit you have?

One thing I hope your taking into consideration is that the price difference between the two is alot. Do luck will require extra molding on the rear fenders, more paint, more prep, and even when your done with the body, your going to need some new wheels to make it look right. But if you can afford it definitly go do luck. Best wide body ever.
