Sorry I don't like how the kit looks at ALL...
The first gen has classic lines... and putting on all that bulbous plastic on the bottom makes it look bloated.

But I gotta give credit where it's due. The paint and craftsmanship are both lookin good!

To each his own...

PEACE

I think it would look amazing w/ a mariah mode 4 rear and side skirts glassed onto the body.

THe front dam should get rid of the little bubble bits on the sides and come straight back to the wheel arches. I think it would look perfect if that were the case.

Where is the proof that this is a true Veilside kit?

what does it matter if it's a knockoff? its veilside style anyways.

I think it looks not to bad. I agree with iotus that it would look way better if the front airdam didnt bulge out on the sides like that.

IMHO, it looks a lot better than a widebody kit.

but you gotta admire the time and skill that went into it.

I like the front and I normaly dont like the vielside look but it looks good on a first gen. the guy needs to get it back in the shop and do something about the back end. that part of the car looks not good. rethink those tail lights they cant be mazda. with all that fabing you would think he would have done better there. it also needs a tail of some kind. new style body old school rims dont work like iotus says. molded in flares on the front would pull the front a together.

There's something about it i just hate, that kit has the wrong curves for the car... sad thing to say but that car needs some sort of wing now.

Yea not bad, but it looks stuck on. It was obviously made for a wider car. Properly fitted and in a different color it would look nice. Im speaking of the front only, the rest looks like ***.

Yes, it matters to me. If it's not from the artists at VeilSide, then it's not as impressive to me.

Also, the plates are obviously not from Japan, so I just find it odd this rarity would be found anywhere BUT Japan.

i hate veilside's kits. i hear they fit perfectly on the cars they are made for, but for the price they should. the kits they make look like complete **** to me. theres an ad in the new super street that has a kit for the 350z, completely fucked up that car. i dont see how/why someone could waste money like that on a ugly body kit like that
