I think veilside wideobody is nice. Just get the fenders and go to a good shop. and please ditch the thurxtons, they weren't a good idea then and they really won't be when/if you go wide. Don't get the mastergrade, looks like crap imo... notice how the only guy telling you to get mastergrade sells it, lol

and apparently this guy ^^

i dont understand why you would go veilside kit and then go with a run of the mill wheel brand.


I think you right. To be honest with you guys I like my car but theres something missing to it. I was thinking replacing my wheels and then I was thinking about going wide. I dont know theres something missing. Is there any other wheels that you guys might suggest?

Thanks you all for your input I came to the right place

There is two ways you can go with wheels. Any wheel of your choice in a low offset with spacers... or, you can go with wheels like iForged, J-Line, HRE and have a custom set to your exact size and offset made. All I can say is... be prepard to spend some money!

Yeah, be prepared to spend almost 20K if done right.

$3-4K for WB kit.
$4-5K for quality paint and install
$6K+ for quality wheels and tires.
$7-10K for FI. MUST have F1 or why bother if no power to match the look.

I don't think that's been the "hottest" kit, ever...

It was one of the first widebody kits released for the car, and I can't say I've really seen much love for it since at least 2004. I personally don't like it.

this looks soooo nasty... in a bad way

Mastergrade looks good...

But this money can be spent soooo much better... start with new wheels and front bumper
