Hey Guys

as some of you know I'm getting my JVM front painted (look at my avatar), but now i can't decide for the rest of the kit

I'm either thinking:


VRX side skirts, flares and rear bar
VRX side skirts, No flares and rear bar
Ralliart Side skirts, flares and rear bar
Ralliart Side skirts,No flares and rear bar


but I'm not sure how they would look, I'm kinda leaning towards the Ralliart Side skirts, flares and rear bar but not sure.
if people have any pics that they can show me , whatever please do.

thanks

Davo!

personally i'd go with the ralliart sides and rear with flares.

i said no flares at first, but then had a look back to those photos of TZABOY's red ralliart with this front bar and yeah go the flares cause that thing looks hot as

i reckon Ralliart Side skirts, flares and rear bar would look best ,however i believe there's a shortage of ralliart rear bar's in the aftermarket at the moment and the only way to get one is through mitsubishi but there $1200 unpainted

Yup thats why you need the flares for it to flow.
Personally i reckon any kit will go well with the front bar, go with which one you think looks best. Keep in mind the vr-x kit is much easier to obtain/cheaper.

ralliart is harder to find, but will suit the square shapeness of the jvm front

I would recommend not putting the front bar on until u have some sideskirts at least to match it up

cos the front will be hanging low and the rest will be high

but u won't listen to me

oh and also, the vrx front flares will not meet up with the front bar

either way, if u want flares, you will need ralliart ones

i won't but you have a good point, i think a ralliart sides etc. will be the way to go

the bar is in primer and should be finished by the weekend

How about some ground effects sides. I think they look better than the VRX ones, and there much much cheaper than the Ralliart. Hard to find however.

the GE kis is great looking but the sides and rear are not low enough for this front.

yeah the bottom part of the door te-tj wont fit properly but you can buy the replacement bit that will make it fit smoothly he said.

hmm what part is that.

the only thing that I'm worried about is with the flares on the front , i think that they may look stupid cause they stop at the front bar

if you know what i mena
