hell i'll take 20 of those kits if ever made!!!

the upper eclipse looks just like a drift kit just modified a wee bit.

you could take the drift kit in fiberglass and make it your own.

when i get to doing exterior(kit and paint) i am going to take a BW2 front from a 99-04 mustang and a blitz front and mold them together, so i can get the upper part for the headlights/center piece right, but still get the lower black widow part perfect. alot easier than trying to get the mustang one to fit right.

I think that kit make the Eclipse look more race not so much show. I like the race look. I take any new kit out on the market that looks good http://www.dsmtuners.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=57185&password=0&sort=2&cat=500&page=1
I like this front bumper but I would want more of a opening
shave the fog lights winden the lower lip and maybe extend it like the bomex body kit,
PlusI would want some thing to clear a big front mount intercooler

Now this one looks like the Bomex with the stock front bumper I like how it fits the front mount....
Well thats my opion

 

[SlowdsmGST]

Is everyone losing intrest in this? I really think that the 2g should have a body kit that sets it apart from the rest. I have been putting in some time on photoshop shaving and expanding.

 

[GSEclipse06]

once again, what about the 1g crowd?

 

[Attack Eagle]

I think the 2g is perfect from the factory.

 

[SlowdsmGST]

Do I dare say that taking a 3g (Mistake) front end conversion kit for the 2g or the 1g. Or how about the 4g and a conversion kit for the 2g. I do agree that the 2g is good looking stock but I wanna see something more aggressive personally.

 

[Attack Eagle]

the mitsubishi Contour front end (2nd gen mistake`clipse ) is not more agressive.

Throw a talon b front end on it... that is PLENTY agressive and functional.

 

[GSEclipse06]

you want aggressive throw the biggest f*cking front mount on it and leave the bumper off there aint sh*t for the 1g let us have something for once.

 

[SlowdsmGST]

Well I agree that its not fair for the 1g, the 2g take there motors and 2g gets all the body kit. I already have a front mount. I just want a bigger opening

thqt is b/c the rules of DSM ownership say anyone who trice to make rice out of a 1g should be mocked at every opportunity.
2g N/ts are acceptable to rice out (like the green one in F&F) b/c they have neon motors and aren't much good for anything else.

Get that crap off the 1g, and paint it one color or be prepared adn resigned to being made fun of everytime you appear in public.

 

[SlowdsmGST]

Alright Alrigh tlet get back to the topic at are they still going to design a new front bumper?

 

[RedTurboEclipse]

I think the 2g is perfect from the factory.

yes indeed

 

[sleeper2]

has anyone thought of making a evo 8 replica type of bumper for the eclipse/talon? and then just lip the rear, with simple side skirts

here is an EVOIII from an escort on a laser.....

I like that body kit it diffrent but a 1g looks so good with a drift kit. I gues because the drift kit is square

 

[GSEclipse06]

if you read the original post...they anret making an original kit. they're taking a kit for something else and fitting it to the eclipse. as far as i can tell, it fell through.

and as for the 1g rice bullsh*t, not in all cases. i agree the big ass body kits (drift, dragon z....are there any others?) look like sh*t. but if they made a subtle kit not far from stock adn that didnt make it look like hell...

what if they converted a stock 2g bumper to fit a 1g? that may not be too bad.

 

[Wufei]

I think the 1g Drift front bumper doesn't look too bad. Basically a 2gb front end.

[SlowdsmGST]

Still couldn't finde it it looked close to the ace kit with fiberglass work done. I just keep my eyes open

 

[GSEclipse06]

then maybe it was a one off kit custom fit from another car.
