2G "Custom" bodykit plan/setup, comments?

[jccreszMC]

I've been planning out a aftermarket body setup for when I get the time and money. I'd like opinions.

Spoiler

Front Bumper
VIS Racing GT Bomber
Rear Bumper
VIS Racing XGT Rear
or VIS Racing GT Bomber Rear (if I can find it)
Side Skirts
VIS Racing TSC Skirts
Fenders
Extreme Dimensions Duraflex F-1 front fenders
-Haven't found good-looking rear fenders-
Rear wing/Spoiler
Spyder Type S GT Double-Deck Aluminum Spoiler
Hood
Duraflex Predator
or Seibon VSII CF hood
Headlights/Taillights
Black Halo Pro
Spec-D LED Chrome
Mirror Bracket
Spyder M3
Wheels/Tires
Bridgestone Potenza RE-11
Either Racing Hart FWD209, TSW Interlagos, or TSW Rouge.

Will be updated as tastes change before I decide.

Buy wheels, lower it, leave body stock. That front bumper looks absolutely horrid tbh.

Please for the love of god no

Not my taste, but do what you want... it's your car and money.
IMO, the choice combination of front, skirts, and rear make it too busy and doesn't flow well.

 

[jccreszMC]

Don't worry, I'll still keep the stock parts for most purposes. These parts would only be put on for car shows. I agree, the front bumper isn't the best. I might get (2. this) or (1. this) instead. the bumper above is #3 on my list.

As for the rear bumper, I may go simple with this one

If you like it man do what you like. Personally most of us love the factory 2g style. But their are some with kits that don't look bad.

If you want it just make it clean and keep the lines equal and straight. Good luck post picks when you decide and start building it.

The mirrors might be nice. And the second rear bumper is better

 

[Millinnion]

Yeah I would say the only part I like are the mirrors. But like everyone has said its what you want to do with it. But definitely don't half ass it or it will look like ass. Would love to see the finished product.

Didn't like 10 of us just get done telling you to save your money and not buy that gs? Now you're looking a a couple grand worth of body stuff?? I already said it once..don't try and run before you crawl man.

 

[jccreszMC]

@tylersevo hey, this is a plan for a few years down the road

 

[tylersevo]

You're young, who knows where you'll be in a few years, and then this thread will be a waste of time haha. Not trying to be a jerk, but it goes back to what I said earlier..graduating high school would be a good first step before considering a show car.

 

[jccreszMC]

I can be optimistic.

Nothing wrong with having dreams and a plan. Checking out body kits and knowing what you like.

Perfect time in your life to works towards something that will get you there. Get a job in a shop, learn body work, etc so you can really delve into the guts and glory of cars and thier engineering.

The bumper posted as "1." is pretty sweet. The rest is a little too busy for me. Ive grown to like a clean simple look over the years that shows off how babied the car is. But if you like it then go for it. I've been through the stages of just dreaming about the different hoods and kits and turbos i want for my car. You probably wont buy any of this stuff as the time rolls around but that doesnt mean its not fun to dream it up !

I think one of the best "Fantasy car" visualizer places is 3dtuning.com

Glad you're trying to get into the DSM community but asking for opinions about body kits for a car you don't own, you're being a little TO optimistic. Find a DSM, do some reading/research (before posting) and do to it what you like... not what everyone else likes.

Good luck.
