Question Body kit combination

Hey guys, what do you all think about this combination on a Silverstone?

1)Top Secret front bumper
2)Top Secret CF vented hood
3)Greddy side skirts
4)Vertex rear bumper

And of course 19 inch SF Winnings and 35% Tint.
And YES, thats right, NO WING for me

PLEASE PLEASE, let me know what you think, and write down your ideas regarding a good combination, feel free to mess up my listed parts above and replace it with what you think looks the best

Engine mods will be done slowly over time... no rush...
BTW, I'm learning a lot from you guys on engine mods in this forum. Thanks for all the GREAT GREAT info.

Oh, one more thing, I moved out of state, so how do I change my profile info?
Thanks guys,

I am not a big fan of mix n'matchin the kit but from what u want I don't think it would look right IMHO. but I have to admit its hard to find a kit that look good altogether.

Thanks for the comment, I agree, its hard to find a kit that looks good altogether, that's why I decided to mix and match.

I am going for the Veilside V1 so maybe that would change your mind.

I'm not a big fan of huge bumpers. But I love the Top Secret one though.

well, what look are u trying to get. A clean look or all out track wannabe look. The Vertex rear abd front might be lower than Greddy sides...I think...check out the body gallery.

Im going for the clean look.
- Veilside V.1 lip
- Greddy,vertex, or esprit/spirit sideskirts
-vertex rear and still looking

Well, I like the aggressive look of Top Secret body kit, but I kinda prefer GReddy side skirts and Vertex rear bumper more. Thats why I wana mix and match.

what do you think about the wheels?

Thanks for the comments.

SF Winnings are the mesh styles right? If it is, they are sweet..
check this link:

I like all the parts that you are looking into,,,its just the matter of matching them together...im just thinking the vertex rear is going to be alil lower than greddy so it won't fit rite..but I could be wrong...Ive seen a greddy sides+ kaminari front lip combo on the board.

just make sure that whatever you mix together comes out right.

I've seen some mixed kits and they didn't flow too well and made the car look ugly.

If you're coing for the clean look, I think Veliside V.1 lip + Vertex sides should look great.

I agree. I think the shape of the Nismo front lip (US lip only coming next month) is picked up perfectly with the Stillen series 2 side skirts. Both are very clean.
