36922, almost body kit time!! wahoo need advice Posted by slacker911, Dec-17-02 12:27 PM
I am looking for some advice (I am only realy looking for advice from people that have worked with many diffrent kits and basicaly know there shit) I am getting ready to order my kit finaly (hope to order right after x-mass) anyways I am looking at the bomex kit, however I am not sure if I want to pay the $1300 price. I am thinking of ordering one from ebay and I know that they are basicaly crap so here is the questions, when I get the kit I am basicaly going to hack it up. Rear bumper is getting molded along with new tails, sides are getting molded and the front I am shaving the side markers and it too may get molded (yeah yeah its a show car and I like spider cracks :P ). So is it worth it to get the true bomex kit even though its getting heavly modded or should I just go cheap and fix all thats wrong with it while I am doing the rest of the work? Please no dumb ass remarks like ebay kits suck or there will be alot of work involved because I already know that.
Thanks Nathan

fitment on the bomex kit will almost be oem, but if your gonna hack it up any ways and you know your shit, then just buy one from ebay, or some cheap website. cause i dont see why you would want to spend that much if your just gonna be cutting it up any ways :)

I would still get hte Bomex kit. It will let the person oding the hacking have less to worry about, and cost you less in the end. Just because they hack a kit up to fit, doesn't mean it will look good in the end. With the work you are talking about it doesn't seem there will be that much hacking being done anyway. If you plan on driving your car at all in normal conditions, be very very careful. Molded pieces on your car will ruin a paintjob if you hit a bump the wrong way.

I will be doing all the work :) and yes I know what I am doing. I may be doing alot more to the kit then what I stated that was just to give people an idea of the work already going into the kit. Thanks for the link. I hope to have pics in about 2 months!
