Hi all,

I have scoured the web (google with all its glory) and have come up with nothing. I am looking for a clear picture/s of an ek hatch with a full buddy club kit on it - preferably a red hatch. All of the pictures that I have seen are dark and are hence difficult to see the kit and its detail.

If someone could help that would be great.

Cheers.

Use carmate as an example but do not purchase from them. They're not reliable.

Thanks guys for the responses. I really like this kit but have never seen the front bumper up close in person and was wondering if it was just the pictures or does the front stick a long way out from the body :confused: ?

Do you or anyone else happen to have any more pics of a civic with this kit in 'situ' - kinda like the third link?

Wasn't planning on using Carmate. They seem to have gotten some mixed feedback across the web about the quality of product supplied as well . . .

Thanks for the pics tanghy. Have you seen this kit in person? Does the front of the kit stick out much further than the body of the car??? Those pics seem to indicate that the kit sits much further forward . . . or is it just the angle :confused:

the kit looks good ... im getting the sides and back .. but different front. the dont STICK out much but if you lowered your car it sits about 1.5" inches - 2" inches lower than your current height. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the reply Newbie.

Are you going for a C-west front?

With the sides I was thinking that it would look really good if they were moulded. I saw a picture on the web somewhere where they were moulded and it looked awesome.

Seen a few cwest kits around town, it's a nice kit.

imo the front doesn't stick out much at all.

newbie yeah, I saw WTB but I reckon that it would look real good as a combination.

I am not totally sure what I want to do. I think that at this stage and for the next little while that I might stick with leaving my car stock and just painting the stock side skirts.

Thanks for the help guys.

Hope Binh doesn't mind me using his car as an example. Slightly different front but hope its of use.

Yeah, that was a good help.

Think I might still stay stock on the exterior for the moment although I have really liked something about the buddy club kit - but just can't put my finger on what exactly.

there no point paintin your stock side skirts if you gonna get a kit. plus you could sell them off (thats wat im doing in stock form..) laters. or u could go for spoon lip and leave your stock side skirts black.. and get cf bonnet and dark rims and yeh.. hahahah looks heaps crazie.. just get your

door handles
back rego plate
side mirrors
maybe your front grill (unless you gett a kit that havs that already,,)

thats just my opinion., im basicall same stage as you with kit stuff but i know wat i am gett// should be done by mid jan for me.. Gl with it man.. just plan it out so you dont stuff yourself up.. hahahaha

Yeah, it is really difficult to make a decision. Really not sure which direction that I want to head in at the moment. Seems to me that painting the skirts and the rest one colour is a fair bit cheaper and it would look pretty clean as it would all be one colour, but then I have always liked something about the buddy club kit.

I tell you what, there are just to many choices :p .

Nice ride :thumbsup: . What is it an ek4?

Besides the buddy club sides and CTR wing what is the rest of your kit? Looks great from that angle.
