Got some questions... body kit stuff



what do you guys think? I know its ricey, but I think it would alright on the SVX... I can get it DIRT cheap, I figure it could be kind of fun to tinker around with over the summer, our front track width is 59.1 and theirs is 58.79 so I figure I shouldn't have THAT much trouble... and then if I build a turbo car finally it would work well for a FMIC... and what nots... any of you guys have both a 02 Rex and an SVX? if so can you measure the front to kind of give me an idea on what I am getting my self into... thanks

Chris


BTW, give me some input, even if I disagree its nice to see

im gonna have to agree. deffinatly not worthy of the WRX or the SVX. not to mention you would have to alter it around the headlight area, and what not

Try it. it might look like crap, but at least when you do you can say "not might, does."

And heck, it might not.

The world was built with "might" ya know.

Will not fit particularily well with the SVX's style (then again how many body kits DO fit the style of the vehicle...)

Keep in mind there will probably be more work involved than trimming around the edges. But if it's cheap, you have a lot of time on your hands, and you don't mind wasting a couple of bucks when the project doesn't go well, then go for it.

yeah no, I know its going to be more than a little trimming... but the thing is 100... and no one has offered in a LONG time, the guy basically said whatever you give me for it I will take. I think once its painted it would look pretty nice... kind of like danny's but a little different... we'll see once I get it.
