GROUP BUY - CIVIC TYPE R body kit for sedan

[I Vtec, do you?]

Never, because then it wouldn't be a Type R thing. Might as well call it Type D

[Paxton]

$1000 for a fiberglass kit with only ABS sideskirts isn't exactly what I had in mind. I figured for that price it was going to be different.

Do you have prices for the pieces individually? i.e. rear bumper, side skirts, etc?

[dominicanto17dr]

Yea. I sort of like the rear bumper. That bottom black part thats also like the Mugen. I wouldnt buy the whole kit tho. So yea, can it be bought seperately?

[BattleEndless]

updated single piece pricing

[SiFan4tic]

the Front seems pretty crappy..



And fiberglass kit for $1,000 FTL...

[dominicanto17dr]

I wouldnt be so negative about the kit. It almost looks like the Type R kit. I give BattleEndless props for making the kit.

[06CivEXJon]

Wow thats a really nice looking kit! any word on making a Coupe version? wait..this is fiberglass?! no polyurethane or ABS material bumper?!

[imbossay1028]

love it.

where do i pay/sign up for the group buy?

[I Vtec, do you?]

I'm kinda worried that if I get this, it's gonna look like garbage after a while. Every time I see a bodykit on the streets it's all chipped and cracked up. I'm assuming it's because it's made of fiberglass.. like this kit is. Poor idea in purchasing this?

[Paxton]

After stupid amounts of research on using fiberglass kits, the answer I keep coming to, repeatedly, REPEATEDLY, is no. Its chit.

Fiberglass < Cow shit.

[berlinas2k2]

Looks completely different, and the rear, somewhat mugen stylized.

^^ who wouldnt hit it?

btw, whats wrong with fibreglass?

[I Vtec, do you?]

^^ I beleive (don't know for certain) that it cracks quite easily. Imo, it's just not a good idea for a car unless it's a show car that doesn't see the road much. There's an accord and a TC at my work which both have kits on them and they have big chips and whatnot in the fronts and backs.

I think BE will sell a LOT more of these if they

1) Use better materials (who wants to spend $1500 on a kit that is gonna look like poop in a bit)

and

2) Fixes this part:



If you look at the kit which this is inspired off of (I'm assuming) it has some very aggressive lines on this part that the kit BE is selling does not. It looks very plain and makes the front end look very large and plain imo.

Edit - After looking at the original body kit I realized WHY it looks so much better with those lines - they flow with the side skirts. BE please do this!

[imbossay1028]

yeah those lines pretty much MAKE the body kit.

and if you got that without the sideskirts the front bumper would look really outa place i think.

the plainness kinda scares me.
it looks like a snow plow in a way without that side line on it

i cant see the pictures, im at school

I posted the original pics since they are mine.. and I told you guys they were not in production but everyone insisted they were *shrug*

Not to disrespect Batte Endless but the kit I originally posted is not fiberglass & not the same design.

[jackolee]

the end would look better with the type r or canadian style tail lights

[I Vtec, do you?]

I think the end and sides look fantastic, the front just has a really large area on the sides that is very plain and I think would look gorgeous with the lines of the original kit as well.

That and better materials and this thing could be a winner.

No one insisted it was made, people just kept inquiring about it. Totally diff thing..
