-1 on NO ONE even reading or paying attention. The OP didn't do this mod. He asked about it someone else posted pictures of someone who did it and that's it. I think we have one of the nicest stock body's period next to supra's skylines and rx7's but I don't think it's ugly just not my cup of tee. Half the people commenting have eithe cookie cutter body kits or stock body's with carbon fiber hoods because someone convinced you they do it in japan (JDM style) so you should do it too

^^^ I agree with you, leave it stock. 2gb talons are the best.

about the only reason this would be a good idea is to have more room for a turbo set up. swapping on an avenger front will give you about 2.5" more room in the engine bay. other than that, i think it looks horrible but that could just be the way the guy did it with the ugly flares and such.

woah, you guys are going to far..lol


so i guess you guys are saying that a flat black 98 talon(w/hiogh rise spoiler), with an avenger front with cleared out headlights and turns, black gsx rims, lowered 2 inches, with red-out taillights, would look bad....please, i think that would look pretty hot

honestly I like it for originality, but my dislikes are due to it looking uneven. Other then that I give props to whoever owns it for wanting to be different! It tears me up when everyone rags on people who dont want to do the same stupid shit as everyone else....I am not a follower, so when I get done with my motor I am going to change the looks a bit on my talon just because I want to drive down the road and know that oh his car looks just like mine... or theres my car... screw that...

I hate fiberglass body kits man, they should make plastic body kits.
if that guy wants to be different then cool man, you have to respect all the body work that he put into that car at least he did something new.

No it wouldnt. The conversion I doubt has anything to do with extending the rad support. Its just fenders,bumper, hood and headlights. It should still have exactly the same room.

well actually you have to switch the rad supports and the rad support does come out 2.5 inches from the eclipse/talon rad support, the avengers rad support mounting points are a little different as well....
