DSMTuners is the last place I'd be asking for body kit help. With that said, I'm not puting it down or anything. Alot of people here aim more for stock look, fast car. There are a few people here that do still do the body kit thing, but they seem to have alot of money and focus on both aftermarket looks and fast car.

But, to keep on subject, I myself really dislike that rear end.

BUT, I LOVE this one...

I would have to agree with InfiniteGSX, I am not a huge fan of this rear end, but then again im more of a sleeper/stock look kind of guy. But I like the pic InfiniteGSX posted a little bit better!
 
i will be honest i am not a big fan of the whole body kit thing. but... i do have a lip on the front of my talon. i think "sleeper" is the best way to go. or that look of wow thats a good looking car "what do you have done to it"?
i call it customly stock. thats where it looks really good and really custom but almost looks like it could have been an option from the factory.

just my 2 cents
so thats a no from me on the body kit looks to ricer.

i know your post said that you did not want any bodykit haters. but sorry in my opinion and most people on here ...................
body kits=rice
 
if i were to put another body kit i would go with the buddy club s2 kit.
It has that clean look.

Yeah, I mean do something you like. Like I said earlier... you shouldn't be coming here for our advice, cause its not going to be what you want to hear. Real car people don't ask for advice on how to style their car, they style their car to represent themselves. My car, shows my personality. Dark, Mysterious, and I'm not bragging... but I'm sexay! :D
 
I don't like it, just my .02, but if you're going to get it, you're going to have to do a full Eclipse rear conversion. Don't know if anyone already said that, or if you already knew it, but just making sure you do.
 
Import fan use to maker a rear bumper for the talon but chaser doesnt have it in their site for some reason.
 
Really? Damn talk about rare parts... Lets see some Talon rear bumpers, and tail light options... Maybe I should own a Talon. Ususaly when I own a car that has like almost no aftermarket support... and move onto another vehicle, that vehicle gets aftermarket support... LOL I used to own a 3rd Generation Honda Accord LXi that I turbocharged from some Mitsubishi Parts.
 
Asylumms.com used to make a rear for the talon also. I orded it waited over a year and it never showed up. I refused to do an eclipse conversion and thats really how I ended up with the GT3/quwhees kit which really isnt any better.
 
when I get my settlement check, I'm looking into buying a low mileage 98 Talon TSI AWD... My Eclipse can remain FWD, my bad ass can be a talon... No body mods... I love the way talons look... They are a dying breed, with all these Talon to Eclipse conversions.
 
but this is what i dont get. sounds like most of you like the blitz rear end. but the bumper i showed was the same, but instead of a big gaping whole in the middle, its filled and looks more agressive. I am doing the eclipse tails conversion so i just wanted an opinion on an aftermarket rear. blitz is way overdone, bomex hangs too low, and i havent seen this one before except that pic from andysautosport.com
 
how about the bmx rear?

thats the bomex knock off. it hangs down 4" more than stock. i want a bumper thats somewhat practical with a drop and 18" wheels.
 
I don't like the way the lines drop on that one . I would prefer this .
