it's Cheap. Buy it.

Get rid of the faux Vielside kit and you will be ahead of the game. People aren't buying it because it's ugly, you guys know better. Getting that car to look good isn't going to be that hard or expensive.

the only problem with that veilside kit is the front. if it were the full front then IMHO it is still good to go.

I never hated on that kit completely. Its over the top and one of the oldest kits for the car but it has a look. the fact that the widebody parts and the skirts look to be molded in means it would take a whole lot of work and $$$ to change the look completely. That negates the crazy low price IMHO if you decided to do that.

my suggestion is get the car and then put the INGS front on it and make it look a lot like my car


NOT..... but seriously all it needs is another front end and its good to go.

Jeff at S&R has a couple of front ends ready to go I think.

Going to look at the car tomorrow.

Jeff from S&R is going to do a once over with me to make sure the car is still a good deal.

She likes the kit on it, and I think with the front end fixed and some nice rims it could look really good. Maybe some concave face Emotions, In black.

I was around the area today and stop by to look at it body is 71/2 out of 10 a few dings and scratches and the hood fitment with the front bummper no bueno one of the headlights is also scratch bad. The top is OEM with an aftermarket glass window. The seats are in poor condition and its gona need rims n tires the rims have bad curb rash and the tires are almost bold. The kit is molded really nice tho

I'm not a big fan of that kit, but if the whiskers had a piece connecting them and finishing off the bottom of the bumper it would look better.

Good luck with it
