Kyle > OK lets hope we can all do the home "mold" job without screwing anything up lol. I assume you will retain the factory indentation for the Nissan burger (wish you didnt) so would it be a huge issue to fill that in with urethane filler, same as this body line you talk of?

jmlenz.. I do have a rendering I can show.. it follows the kit pretty good, but not an actual photo.. perhaps this will shed some light on the design..

Please excuse the fact that the graphic is in use for another purpose.. but it's what I have now to show..

Nope, the Nissan burger is gone...We find that most people who want to install a body kit also want to debadge their vehicle. No point really in making it look really unique and different and still having label telling everyone what it is...it's a lot more fun when people ask!

However, if you have your own grill material that you would like to use I can supply you with estimated dimensions next week.

no that will work then. as long as its black, I would rather a premade one.

Love the sneak peek picture. Maybe I missed it or no one has asked but have you guys looked at the power difference using this with the G3 intakes?

RCZ 02-27-2010 09:52 AM

That ended up looking better than I expected! Can't wait to get it!

Bumper looks better than the earlier pics. I don't need a bumper though because I bought a lip.

I like the sideskirts. When is it coming out?

AJ@ECSMotorsports 02-27-2010 10:03 AM

Lookin' good!

Red370 02-27-2010 10:06 AM

that looks AMAZING, it will compliment my G3's quite well, cant wait to buy it.

That is kind of a hard test to perform without having a dyno inside of a wind tunnel...Being serious, not joking.

Realistically this will have a ram air type of effect while you're driving at speed so without question it will add power. However the only way to truly find out how much power, accurately, is to setup a wind tunnel that can increase wind speed as the simulated road speed increases. Other wise you aren't accurately gauging the "ram air" effect.

The fascia and rockers will be coming out very soon. The rockers (side skirts) will probably be coming out in about two to three weeks. We will have the first production fascia by Monday afternoon, the mold was complex and took longer to clean than expected, and from there we will on the instructions for molding that body line and make sure that everything is 100% before releasing it. I think that will take us about a week or so.

This looks good, I am not 100% go yet on it, but some live shots might sway me over. Would love to have some better air flow to the Gen IIIs, and have you guys mounted coolers in the side areas yet (with pictures)?

travisjb 02-27-2010 10:41 AM

also looking forward to info on the optional/modular brake ducting setup

Caravanshaka 02-27-2010 11:40 AM

anxious to see a price so I can talk the wife into it with tax return $

also like the side-skirts...subtle yet effective.
