Default The kit is ready for production

I have finished the kit last year - now I am trying to get some input on if you like it or not - but it would take around 3 weeks manufacture for shipping if you are interested.

Gav you need to know that posting items like this you want to sell require paid membership if not site sponsorship, this post and any like it will be deleted the instant Randy notices them.

Best you post prices quickly or pay for membership.

Default I am not trying to sell the kits yet -

I am simply trying to get some input so I can neaten it up - I will gladly pay to advertise or sell once I am finished the final mods - just wanted to get a feel of what the best critics in the world have to say

Gav, I would soften the rockers (side skirts) a little and use the factory lights in the front fascia. I would also paint the lower spoiler on front facia to match rest of car. It looks like this is ending too abruptly too high up in the front wheel arch. Overall it is an exciting work! What exactly comes with the kit and is it affordable? Hint,hint...

not a fan of body kits, but like the "gill" effect with the vents on the sides.

I agree in softening the rockers - even changing them completely had crossed my mind - the race version has a spliter that fits under the front bumper with adjustable shocks, the race car looked so good with the front black, that we tried it on this car - I am not so sure it would look better in the colour of the car -but that is a matter of taste and of course the colour of the car - this car has the pop up lights in a satin black too as well as the rear wing to compliment each other.
