Hey guys, I'm after some of your opinions, i'm personally leaning towards the oem kit but would LOVE to hear your opinions on both.

cheers.

keep in mind that the cl9 with the oem kit has tinted headlights and no number plates.

I like the sports kit (euroR) better. Especially when matched with the grill. Nice and stealth.

I see you already got euroR front lip JunYu!

Both look great but OEM with the Euro R grill (which you already have)... sweet :thumbsup:

do any of you guys feel that the oem kit makes it look more vip or is it just me?

I think oem kit looks like add on, and euroR kit belongs if you know what I mean.
As for more luxurious? both look sporty to me. Paint those fogs white and there would be hardly any difference.

OEM kit is my choice :)
I had the same choice, OEM kit looks great with the sports grill :)
Both look good though, hard to decide! :p

yeah i know what you mean. I feel the same way.

And you're right, if you paint the foggies they do look similar! i never saw it like that! thanks for the perspective!

I have the OEM kit. I think I prefer the rear and side skirt of the OEM kit, but mixed about the front lip/skirt. Sports is seamless and the OEM front has more so it looks like an add-on.

I think if I knew I could get the sports kit when I was buying my car I would have... well maybe just the front and OEM side/rear skirts, nice and simple.

So you would have the oem rear + sides and the sports front?

I'm actually thinking of doing that combo, seen a few pictures on tsxclub. Looks pretty nice, only thing stopping me is i'm not sure whether the flare on the sports front matches the flares on the oem kits ..
hmmmmmm

Yeah, OEM rear and side skirt + Sports front skirt + Sports grille. I think the bottom/side part of the OEM and Sports front skirt are pretty much the same. It's the top half of the OEM the kills the flow because bits overlap the bumper.

<--- Side of my car looks okay.. if only my car was low like that and had those wheels :)

JunYu
23-07-2008, 06:49 PM
^ lol, the flares are actually a tad different, the oem kit is more rounded like the sides and the rear where as the sports kit is more or a straight flare.

felixd
23-07-2008, 06:51 PM
will it be more expensive if buying this kit separately ? cuz by imaginating that combo it looks sweet as :) i want one now :(

JunYu
23-07-2008, 07:00 PM
lol yeah i've called up a few dealers if you buy it as the whole set they're able to give you more of a discount.

the 06 oem kit painted is around the $2600 mark. They don't even sell the sports kit anymore, it'll have to be ordered from japan. Unless you come across a dealer who stocked it.

JunYu
23-07-2008, 07:01 PM
By the way guys, i've actually got a set of oem kit and a set of sport kit in gunmetal.

whichever kit i decide on i will be selling the other. So keep your eyes peeled!

felixd
23-07-2008, 07:04 PM
oh just one more question ive got 06 model euro yeh is the side skirt the same as the euro R kit ones cuz i look a couple of pics they looks similar ??? which year is it for Junyu ?

JunYu
23-07-2008, 07:05 PM
the 06' actually flares out more than the 03-05 but the euroR flares out even more than the 06.

felixd
23-07-2008, 07:09 PM
owww how about will OEM rear skirt of 05 model fit on the 06 ? cuz without it the car seems like very high at the back LOL

JunYu
23-07-2008, 07:11 PM
no, 03-05 rear or fronts are not interchangeable with the 06+.

felixd
23-07-2008, 07:14 PM

I would say go for the sports kit....unless you got a black one cuz then the foglight surrounds blends in

that is hot, but the last two doesn't look that fantastic.

I don't think it goes well with the sports grill.

I prefer the OEM (right side). I think it looks more aggressive than the Sports Kit.
I would paint the fog light housings etc on a white car. They are black on mine but it is graphite and it doesn't show hardly at all.
In the end both look good so it's really up to you.
