we normally stock the full kits but there has been a run on the side/rear combos so all we have are the fronts in stock right now. i am expecting two more kits in about a month but i believe one is already sold. then we should have another 2 coming in about 6-8 weeks along with some of the kenstyle carbon tipped exhausts as well. intense is an authorized dealer for all kenstyle products as well so rest assured that you are getting the real thing.

it's an unfortunate situation with the replica bumper, I hope everything works out for you.

lol yeh
and to think greddysetgo and importtrendz didnt think it was a problem and couldnt see that it was missing.

the car has been done. i had it for a week, but took it back cause the side skirt cracked and there was another bubble in the rear bumper. i took it back last thurs was supposed to get it tuesday, but with the rain on monday and tues they couldnt paint until yesterday. so i decided to leave it there overnight and today and am goin to pick it up today after class.

day






from the side profile you can see that the side skirts are a little short too, but o well. the corners of the front and rear bumpers are pushed in as well. i tried to get that fixed but there is not enough material on the edges of the bumpers to move them out and put a screw through it. im just goin to live with it for now, but the bodyshop said if it really bothered me they would take it back again and manufacture something for me. so i think while im on spring break and can afford the downtime on the car i will drop it off and see what they can do for me. also goin to have the tailights painted to match and just leave the 2 circles and the reverse light. do you guys thing that i should have little circles for the leds as well or just paint over them. anyone care to photoshop it??

^^that gap between the bumper and hood sucks..but i'm sure your body shop did the best they could..

btw, what are you lowered on? that (lack of) ground clearance is insane..

but i like what you did by taking out the support bar in the grille and that horizontal one on the bottom..looks much much cleaner

just my two cents, but id leave the tails as is

yeh but its not really that bad or noticeable to me.

tein basics. the fronts still have about 3/4" left in them so it can go lower. lol
the rear is maxed out and is still a little high. im goin to take the adjuster nuts off and that should give me about another .5" lower in the rear

but i like what you did by taking out the support bar in the grille and that horizontal one on the bottom..looks much much cleaner
thanks
i had to take the bottom bar out because it was angled. the one in the grille i had to take out because of the missing lip on the inside edge, and the fact that i hated it there. lol

but i like what you did by taking out the support bar in the grille and that horizontal one on the bottom..looks much much cleaner
the tails are already painted with a lot of clear, metal flake, and body color. i had that done a long time ago but they got chipped up from being thrown around so im goin to see if they can fix the chips and reapint them or if i would have to buy new lights.

off topic: how much neg camber do you have in the front?

i'm getting my tein basics installed friday..i have the spc rear camber kit but my fronts are doomed if i slam it too much..

but anyway..from an overall distant point of view, the car looks awesome (i say this because you can't really see any of the imperfections youre talking about)

btw, how are your fogs hooked up? separate switch or did you tap into the stock switch?

-1.4 in the front kinetix front a arms
-1.6 in the rear kinetix toe and camber arms

you can go a little ways with coilover before you start having the problems that springs have with camber. but yes if you go down as much as i did then you def will need something for the fronts.

but anyway..from an overall distant point of view, the car looks awesome (i say this because you can't really see any of the imperfections youre talking about)
thanks im really happy with the way that it turned out. the bodyshop did a great job i think. just took a long time to get it to look that way though.
yeh from the pics you really cant see the corners are pushed in but if you saw the car in person you can. thats really the only thing that bothers me about it. the side skirts you really cant tell. just need those corners moved out. lol

btw, how are your fogs hooked up? separate switch or did you tap into the stock switch?
they are goin to be on a seperate switch because there is like 3 different options of light output for them.

Looking at that day picture, seems your bodyshop did pretty good job, your G looks hot. Not too many DP color with the KS kits. Also get the rings for fogs, G352NV sells them. Now, you need to be very careful driving with KS bumper, it protrudes to much outwards, so with a lowered G its pretty low, very good chance it will get damage. Authentic KS kits are plastic reinforced fiberglass, so it can withstand a pretty good hit. Most replicas are just straight fiberglass, and will damage easily. So watch-out for bumps and steep driveways. Lucky for me, Im on air-suspension, raising the bumper manually, helps me protect the bodykit. ......... Good luck

The KS kit looks hot. You should consider getting the GTR taillight and head light kit from BlueBatmobile (Andy). He makes quality overlays and u can ask for any color/smoke tint if he has them.
