as for the wing i like the look of no wing at all. i think the lines of our cars flow so well that you dont need a wing to make it look good. but just my opinions =)

ok i was struggling between the showoff and sensi front but after those pics how can i not get the sensi, my combo...sensi front, blitz sides and blitz rear

In my opinion, the combat style rear bumper has been played out in show cars since a couple years ago. But now everyone gets Blitz so its also sort of getting played out. But I personally still like the Blitz rear. Of course, its all about personal opinion so you should decide what you like the most overall. Good luck.

Well I can say any different than before...Personally I thin k that the Kaminari kit is the only one that really maintain the round and smooth shape of the Eclipses.....its good looking though and gives a good touch up to the car...I am puttin mine on in two weeks from no ))

no one has made the buddy club for the eclipse yet. both wholesale and asylum are claiming they have it but i called both and they do not. it would be fairly cheap to mold another cars buddy club (accord,civic) onto our cars.
#713, "Problems with custom molding" In response to Reply # 7
Actually custom molding another kit to fit our car isn't that cheap, unless you know somewhere with hookups. I think most places charge at least 600 plus the cost of bumper. Also, the easiest way is to keep the stock top half of the bumper (mainly by the headlights and the fenders) and mold the body kit bottom half (from another car) to it. The problem with this is that it can crack very easily because it is actually two pieces molded into one. If you hit a dip or parking curb hard, it can crack along the line you molded in. Good luck...

if you mean a 4 piece kit and the rear wing all installed (do it all yourself, its so easy) and painted for $1700? thats actually a pretty good price. paint will run you about $550, so that leaves you $1150 for the kit pieces. a shop will charge you about half as much to the same amount of paint cost (275-550) for install leaving you only 600-850 for the kit if you decide to let them install it. basically what im saying is i believe it is impossible for you to do all this for $1700 of you dont do the install yourself. best case scenario with a body shop installing and painting the kit would leave you $1100, no more, for the kit, and thats being generous. you cant get the kit and wing shipped for $250 per piece.
