widebody Z4M?

Vanne · 03-12-2016, 10:14 PM

just came across this site in germany, they make the kits on site and provide shipping.. call it 7K euro for the kit..

I like the rear end, don't like the finish on the rear flares, and absolutely HATE the front bumper.. besides that, id recon this is a pretty good kit, also in the pics if you look close, a lot of the panels don't line up very nicely..

probably a lot of pre and after work required to make this kit fit nicely.

heh, there also on ebay in the US, cheaper too.. lol

Yea, looks good at first blush, but none of the panels line up on the German kit, and the US kit is full of disclaimers like "it will exhibit chips, breaks, cracks, waves, scratches and holes which require modification.".

Lol yeah think this kit would be more problems than its worth..

wish someone produced a quality carbon wide body kit, one that has OEM quality written all over it.

Kits never look good for very long.
Any resin based panel that you attach to metal will ultimately show cracks and waves because of the different rate of expansion factors.

plus the front bumper lip is ridiculous, and the rear wheel gap looks silly

spot on what Zstig said.. yeah that is terrible.. wish someone made nice GT3 setup, with a custom front bumper like the KNB one. that GT3 front bumper is soooo dog ugly..

this however looks lush..

sadly wrong platform..sigh

I'm with you Stig, it looks like a kit from a cheap horror movie.
