while i'm not in the market for a bodykit, i think a widebodied SVX would look very cool. and by widebody, i don't mean goofy-looking boxy fenders - i think just exagerrating the mild flares the SVX already has would look really nice and allow for wider tires (which would also look very nice. )
as far as the front, i never liked how the bottom angles downward toward the wheels, if that makes any sense. the two-piece splitters that are available seem to fix that nicely, though, without being too obnoxious.

Grrrrrrr! I put six folds in my magazine of that pic. That is one sweet kit, too bad it wouldn't suit the SVX. However, something similar may look good. |

That Just An Example... Of What Imagination Can Do. But That Is A Unique Look For A Unique Car. Something With Real Good Taste. And We Have A Unique Car With Unique Performance Why Not Create Something For Svx Not A Copy From Another Car Svx Is Not A Copy. Hopefully This Will Happend Someday.... If Earthworm Can Create A Supercharge Why Not Create A Bodykit???? One Day In My Dreams!!

You guys are aproching the situation completely wrong. The SVX is way too unique of a design to put on a run of the mill Rice Rice Baby body kit, considering the car was basically targeted at Europe and the US I thing we need to take stying cue Ideas from our exotics and euro-exotics and find the median. This car will always looked pinched on the seems with simple bumpers, what this car needs is a 1 of a kind widebody kit that isn't derived from any other kit. I have made several sketches of them and I am almost to the right design, however I will not simply intigrate cues from other cars into the design, the only thing on the car that resembles another is the windows, which are that of the Delorean's, other than that this car is a one off for subie, with that said I think we should be looking more into a SCCA taylored look or a german cup car for inspiration, I would post mine but the size of the file is HUGE for some reason, maybe I'll rescan it tho, I wanna know what others think of my view on this matter.

Sounds like you're using a BMP file format. Try JPG and play with the compression until you get the size/quality you want.

Great photochopping. It provides a great alternate of how an SVX can look.
Any other chopped pics out there? Yes, the SVX is a unique car and it will get a unique kit. I'm using all the pics posted as a reference to what shape and possible designs would suit it best. Here's what i'm sure of and not sure of so far. Front bumper: will be a bit wider than stock openings will be designed for ram intake one larger opening openings for fog lights? will not taper inwards at bottom Rear bumper: will be a bit wider than stock not sure yet about any openings - considering openings that will be meshed, but don't want to rice it out. exhaust tips may have to be extended to accommodate rear bumper Skirts:will be an inch wider - running under the door and up the two sides to where the panel is clipped in. I expect the kit to give the SVX a bit of a squared off look. A stronger, more sophisticated look compared to the softer feminine look. I will be meeting with my bodykit guy next week and see how much further i can go with this. Don't forget to vote. |
