Kit looks hot!!!!!

[INVSBL]

kit looks mean, but im guessing the one ur buying isnt gen, so dont expect perfect panel gaps.

[ryan19]

yeh im leaning to the kit

iv gota decide as my front is held on buy cable tyes atm lol

[snYpz]

well that kit i think is fibreglass isnt it? so it will crack very easily....

[ryan19]

yeh its glass,i was tlkn to them today they could also make it out of a flexable metaral,which would be better

[Jarkz]

these guys sell it as well, not sure if price is better & fibreglass quality.

Your wheels wont suit the body kit.

Also your Rear ride height will smash those fibreglass side skirts to pieces.

[INVSBL]

how wont his wheel suit the kit?

.
Yeah they will!
Do a search for my mate pumzy's car! That thing was really lowered on 19's and he didn't really have any probs with the side skirts, and Perth is the land of speed humps.......

[snYpz]

there was another guy who got a replica mugen kit made of durable plastic. there is also a guy selling on the "parts for sale" thread for about $700, so check that out too ;)

[[ IV 23 VI ]]

That kit is a racer style JDM Mugen kit, His wheels are big chrome sexspec wheels...

Also his car is decked, those side skirts hang low.

If you eally want the kit, ask Tenji` he is the one that snYpz is talking about that can get PU rep mugen its in.

The one for sale is a lipkit, whereas the one OP is considering is the mugen bodykit. I say go for it! great excuse to get a kit :p

LOL!

his wheels arnt sex spec.

sex spec is thick spoke, full face rims.

will look mint if he got the kit to sit right with his rims and ride hight.

[[ IV 23 VI ]]

No, Sexspec is 20 inch chrome wheels from Ozzy, tempe, etc.
Also his ride height slammed rear with high front is typical sexspec lowering.

Since you know everything INVSBL you tell me what style his car is....?

Sexspec,
JDM,
VIP,
Indo,
Drift,

If you dont think its sexspec which one is it?? hahah lol

[INVSBL]

y does it need a style.

from the looks of it, its dumped on rims, that isnt a style.

its like saying a stock civic with a lip kit is jdm.

if his car is sex spec, then most of the modified world is sex spec.

imo, sex spec is big full face showy rims, big interior install, big boot install, and stupid money spent on the motor.

not big thin spoked rims, no ride height and the stock stereo on 11.


and wtf is indo? thats a race not a style.

[RiceMeister]

lol i love these arguements.

sex spec makes me want to vomit and i'd agree with Ash here in saying it's definitely more in that direction than it is in any of the other listed. On the same note however, theres no need to classify every car by a type of modifying as here in aus people tend to take what they like from everywhere and add abit of their own flavour.

go lip kit IMO

body kit like the mugen cheapens the look of the and turns it into a ricey sedan rather than a nice car.

go lipkit

[INVSBL]

if i read his first post corectly, his front bar is rooted, making a lip kit out of the question, and for hte price of stock repairs he can get this kit installed and painted for the same price.

it still wouldnt make his car jdm.
the specific car wasnt made and sold in japan, hence it will never be jdm, no matter how many jdm parts he buys for it.

[[ IV 23 VI ]]

?? This car was made in Japan and sold in Japan.

Indo is a style (and a race) aswell, its similar to VIP/EXE style but mostly done on non VIP platform car, ie civics, Accord Euro's, Mercs, BMW's.

[dtngo]

I wouldn't recommend a fibreglass kit. I've seen too many crack for my liking. Go for a plastic kit :thumbsup:


and wtf is indo? thats a race not a style.
Same. I've never heard a mod style based on race :confused:

[[ IV 23 VI ]]

I cant believe you guys have not heard of Indo style.

Cabin Boys who owned the Cabin Auto Salon, started Indo style here in Aus.

Now Team Agents (Melb), Absolute Crew (Syd) Top One Crew (Syd) are all Indo car groups with Indo style.

It usually consists of All branded Japanese parts or branded European parts only on their cars.

[INVSBL]

his car isnt though.

its audm delivered, hence its not jdm.

[[ IV 23 VI ]]

Built in Jp is good enough. well thats what all those jdmstyletuning guys would probably say, lol

[INVSBL]

yeah, if your a blind highschool child.

real jdm is imported. least thats wat i think.

least thats i think, but y believe me, i drive a holden.

[ryan19]

mmm ok then :)

i also agree INVSBl my car isnt sex spec or any were near it lol nore is it jdm.

idk to me there isnt any style that my car is its a family sedan with 20z n lowered BASIC

any who atm im just about to leave for syd,check out the mugan kit see HO low it really will be.

i measured the front it should be around the 85 or 90 mm of the deck,isnt to bad

cough air cough

RyAn

continue with your througths :)

[doosra]

your car looks nice and your wheels will still suit with that kit on.. i dunno what all this rambling about sex spec and indo and blah blah is all about.. pointless.

[INVSBL]

forum + bored people
= rambling bout random shit for hte hell of it.

[[ IV 23 VI ]]

Thats right haha lol funny kent

[tony1234]

I say no bodykit.Based on where you live you'll be replacing the front bar if it is fibreglass more often than a polyurethane or OEM bar.
