The paint on that kit does not match, and theres no shading on the curves, like the fender arches. It just doesn't look right.

The bodykit is available through www.bodykits.com, the specific url is http://www.bodykits.com/v2/xcart/pro...-body-kit.html, however the picture looks just as fake . . . matter of fact, it might even be the same picture with a different background. Anyway, they sell it.

It's a photoshop job, probably just a kit somebody thought up of.

EDIT: Guess it's a real kit, looks pretty fake in that image though, at the least the contrast and levels are messed up.

Well since bodykits.com is a reputible site, I figured if you have any questions, they should be willing and able to answer them. Perhaps they can tell you who actually makes the kit and/or provide you with some more pictures

well yeah its a real kit, but if nobody has ever seen this on another 2, makes me question how well it fits and looks. Kit is made by extreme demensions to the best of my knowledge. Im just hoping somebody has pics of a different 2 with this kit, or has at least seen one out and about to tell how it looks! Now in my fantasy world in my head there is somebody on here that has put one on and can say first hand how the fitment is and what the finished product looks like (without photoshop)

the general consesus about that kit is that it is a knockoff of a knockoff of a knockoff of an old erebuni kit, with some new holes/vents punched in it. most of the time the fiberglass has alot of inconsistincies in it, ie: way too thin in some spots, some thick spots.

in the long run, you would probably spend more money on getting the kit to fit than you would actually buying the kit.

*have you seen me*

found another, and imo it looks pretty good, could use some more custimization on other body panels to make it look more natural, but hey, it looks better than my 2. so is this one anybody on here?

I have that kit.. I used the front and the rear but the side skirts are huge and ugly so I threw those out. The fitment isn;t all that great on the sides where it meets the fender but nothing a lil sanding and molding wont fix..but definitly looks a lot better than stock. here are a few of my pics.. a work in progress

I'm almost certain that is the Hann (Hahn?)Designs kit. I have a Modified Mag with a AW11 with the same kit in the Reader's Rides section.
