My photochop of a body kit

Just thought I'd do a simple chop of a body kit I'd like to see available. I didn't like the wrap-around exhaust of the original image...



Original...

Tommy Kaira. Not sure if it's a retail kit thought, might have been a one-off. Anyone?

This would not look good with a stock exhaust.

Nice work! It does look better without the wrap-around.

same here... not really digging that new style of having the mufflers go through the body... seems unnatural...

I'm with you bro. Much better and sportier. The wrap around is just too ghetto imo.

Now if we could only find a kit that DOES look like that!

Does anyone have shots from the front of that Tommy kit? Curious as to what the front of that kit looks like.

The site is in Japanese so I can't tell you if it will go into production or not.

yup I agree with everyone else too... your chop is much better than that whole wrap around exhaust kit. It might be one of those trends in Japan, but it's probably not gonna be too popular here

It's in production already. Thing is, they sell the body kit as part of a complete tuning package (wheels, suspension, brakes, intake, exhaust, badges, etc.) Absolutely NO PARTING of the kit.

Even when I found someone who wanted the bodykit but not the spoiler, Tommy Kaira Japan refused to sell it to the US distributor because they were going to part out the kit.

-1 for Tommy Kaira for not being flexible.

^^ yeah that sucks! i would love to get the front but i not diggin the rear. i dont see why they wouldnt part it out? their losing out on the aftermarket dollars just so they can have a couple full kitted cars! make no sense in my opinion.
