Nice clean look... could do with something on the back bumper, but looks nice even in white.

i was thinking about getting this kit, but really its just a lower lip that i dont think serves any purpose - so what i decided to do was simple spray my grey plastic front and rear bumper the same colour as my car (or give my whole car a new lick of paint) then dump it, i think it looks better stock and lowered than with that kit.
just my opinion :)
cheers,

Looks too plain for my liking......Surely there would be something from japan that would look meaner

Just my opinion, but I don't like the front lip. Seems to much like a spoiler place cop-out. Like they didn't really put that much thought into it.
Much prefer the Jetspeed fronts or a Diamante front with the extra lip.

Although the side skirts are quite standard looking - lots like these on other cars like Commodore ute & Lancer. They are the same ones I have on my car lol - I got mine from an AMC member who sold their car. Mine have 'Talon' written on them so not sure if they are exactly the same. Maybe same style, different company.
The side skirts make the car look lower. :cool:

Bugs me that they don't have anything for the rear tho. :rant:

As for Japanese kits, yeah there's some very nice kits around (like the Vanity Kit) but people in Australia & the US have all tried to import it (I think one person did) but at a big cost $$$. :doubt:

I don't like it. It looks too out of place and it doesn't match with any other lines on the car IMO.

Side skirts are good, but the lip does nothing at all for me.

I was going through some files last night and came across this one, here's a good example of a lip that flows nicely with the stock bar:

I bought this kit from SSV about 18 months ago, never installed it, ended up selling it to a bloke on here, names ADZA27, looks very nice on his car......no doubt he'll post in this thread soon enough.

You can't put an aggressive front end on these cars...they just end up looking wrong. They have subtle lines...aggressive kits just don't suit them.

That front lip looks far better on ADZ's car.

The rear end of this car looks oright i reckon, and they are pretty agressive, its just that off the shelf stuff for the TR/TS is kinda lame

:bowrofl: Bwahahahaha. It kinda looks alright from the sides and rear, but that front is shockinglol. Waaaaay too much rice.

Also on that wagon it looks like it has indicators on the side mirrors. Or is that just pixellation?

Not too hard to do, the hard thing is getting it to look good. I'd vaguely considered it, but I don't think there's any need, and don't know if it would suit.

That ssv kit has taken 3 minutes for them to develope they have just ripped some skirts and added a lip. Visit a good panel beater and a custom front bar can be made for around 400dollars and work from there.

The only one in this entire thread that looks good is the vanity kit. But that's been posted tons of times before...

Completely custom body kit so unfortunately you can't get it off the shelf :cry:

bodykits can be edited to fit the magna shape, just make shure you get a kit that suits the square parrametres of the magna and less work would be involved.

its alright in my opinion, just would definitely need a whole kit to make it work, that front bar by itself would look weird as

cause the front bar i have is to much work, it would be easy-er to fit this to my car.

the s13 would be easier to make fit because it suits the square magna shape.
