Front Bumpers

I found this link and don't think the products look to shabby I was curious if anyone has seen or ordered these or seen the site. Prices seem way better than some of the imported pieces!

Also does anyone have any more pictures of this car? I like the kit on it too from what I can see.

The guy that runs that site is a not only a member here, he is a Super Moderator. You should be OK.

If I am not mistaken that car is in Russia. It is very likely that all the kit you see on here is hand made GRP stuff, a one-off job by an individual.

The car mechanicals are mostly stock so far as I know. Some people like the bodywork, others hate it. At the very least it is extravagant. Personally I myself would not buy this car or do these mods, but I admire it as a job well executed. It is the sort of bodywork that would be absolutely at home on a stripped out 600hp racer.

Just a tiny bit extreme for the street.

If you do a search on Russia maybe you should find the thread where it was discussed before.

Personally I don't know if I would go quite that extreme myself but I do like several things about it. To me a car like that just looks mean. The biggest problem so far I have noticed is there aren't a lot of options out there. Everything has to be special. Some love and some hate thats always the case especially when it comes to the car as a whole. But I could sit all day long and consider options for scoops and grilles and hoods and skirts and bumpers and etc... like a kid in a candy shop only I am looking for just the right flavor.
But Mean is good I like Mean ...

It's mean all right.

I looked up the link.

If you can get a Russian translator it will tell you some detail.

Thank you for that I am able to translate them by going to language tools and selecting Russian to English translation then cut and paste the text from there (for those interested). It isn't a perfect translation but you can get the idea. Very cool stuff to see what they are doing and what can be done and seems to be a very modern spin on the SVX. I would post what it converted too but it would be pretty long so thats why I put out how I translated.
Thanks again!

De nada amigo.

It really is cool to see what those guys do. The SVX would be mega rare there in Russia, I'd say most are second hand imports.

They are very inventive and artistic people. Hats off to them.

I like the front spoiler extension on the second one.

I the hood! It is really cool, and what I have been wanting. the wide body is nice, however like most of you have said, too extrreme for me. I want something that looks more stock then that for the widebody.

[Crazy_pilot]

Speaking of wide-body stuff, has anyone ever noticed that the prototype SVX had more aggressive fender flares than the production cars do? If you look at the pictures of the rear corners you can see the tail lights are recessed into the quarter panels.

[Johnybeas]

ok call me crazy but minus the spoiler, YUM... I really like it, the colors too are a bit extreem for me, but throw that baby in some nice black paint tint the hell out of those windows put the stock spoiler or something not too crazy on and mmmm... I would LOVE that car.... looks like a looooot of work though looks like not only front bumper/grill/light replacements and skirts and rear bumper but looks like the rear quarter panels and fenders and stuff were modified. also interior wise, I'm not a fan of all the excentric stuff like all the extra gauges I think are placed really tactlessly and look ricey as hell I do however like the screens

[sowise]

Definitely a loud color choices, I like the black with dark tint as well. They both look pretty aggressive but I don't care for the wing I do like the stock wing spoiler look on the cars mayb the ALCYONE that is a little taller could look cool too.
side note:
Kinda cool to see someone on here from Sandy Utah I used to live there and still have family there! Can't say I have seen or noticed an SVX while I lived there but I am sure it would be AWESOME flying through the canyons in an SVX!
