bullitt5897 · 06-27-2011, 08:45 PM

Well we have a few concept pictures of what we plan on making this summer. Please feel free to share your thoughts and comments.

We borrowed a few pictures to make the concept illustrations... if the owners or publications have a problem with us using the pictures please let me know via PM and we will work out something out.

so without further anticipation:

Front Bumper:
-We have increased the front bumper side intakes (making them functional)
-We have added GTR inspired Center section

Side Skirts:
-New Organic look (a little something different)

Rear Bumper:
-Functional diffuser
-Lower ground clearance for the bumper
-Wider Side vents (similar to veilside version 3)
-Option for custom exhaust through Bumper vents

I love it!!! Any ideas what price range this is going to fall in?

bullitt5897 · 06-27-2011, 09:02 PM

We are still working that out. But it should be similar to our replica kit pricing.

Oh looks good! Interested to see how it turns out!

XwChriswX · 06-27-2011, 09:07 PM

Based on the pics, is this kit going to be based off of the Amuse, so 'Amuse with larger vents and GT-R styled Center' or is that just the kit you're using as a base?

bullitt5897 · 06-27-2011, 09:12 PM

We will be making a new kit from one of our reps... This is a concept and we are starting on the kit starting july 1st so we decided to post up and see what everyone thought... likes and dislikes. This will help us bring you guys the products you want.

If there is enough interest we will mass produce the kit in frp and CF!!! Also at a decent Price!!!

Some might disagree with what I think, but here's my

1. If you do happen to use the Amuse as a rough base, can you not make it extend the overall length of the car. That's the biggest downside to the Amuse to me.

2. I do understand trying to bring in some influence from big brother GT-R but honestly, after seeing the GReddy kit, the GT-R front just doesn't look right on a Z...

3. Are you planning to make this at stock width or would you look into doing a widebody?

Da.Menace · 06-27-2011, 09:23 PM

IMO...

Front Bumper:

-We have increased the front bumper side intakes (making them functional)

-We have added GTR inspired Center section

Side Skirts:

-New Organic look (a little something different)

Rear Bumper:

-Functional diffuser

-Lower ground clearance for the bumper

-Wider Side vents (similar to veilside version 3)

bullitt5897 · 06-27-2011, 09:23 PM

Thanks for your input chris!

-It will be based off similar dimensions as the amuse rep.

-although the kit does have some big brother resemblence... There is a reason for it... It's for our FI brothers and sisters

we are using that duct to funnel air over the intercooler and into the radiator. Some may not like it but it's functional.

-this is stock width and we have already started on our new 25mm widebody fenders which will be compatible with all our kits!

I do not like the Amuse body kit

I do not like it with an increased the front bumper side intakes (making them functional)
I do not like it with an added GTR inspired Center section
I do not like it with a Functional diffuser
I do not like it with a Lower ground clearance for the bumper
I do not like it with Wider Side vents (similar to veilside version 3)
I do not like it with an Option for custom exhaust through Bumper vents

I do not like the amuse body kit, Sam I am!

younter · 06-27-2011, 09:43 PM

Very interesting for the side skirts

GTR style front bumper? not my type

You sure put allot of time into that post. Forget the Amuse kit when you can have "premium floor mats" or "Stillen License Plate Bracket" right?

phelan · 06-27-2011, 09:56 PM

eww - front and side skirts.

WHY do we need to be inspired by the GT-R??? bloody hell, it's a brilliant machine, but it's NOT pretty. the lines don't flow at all. the addition of the vent and the bigger side vents makes it look busy.

side skirts - ....okay, not my style. again, it's busy. functional? okay, sure. but not for me.

rear - it's an amuse rear with a bigger vent. okay...

Not cause any trouble and with all due respect, I really wish you guys would develop your own kit in-house. From what I've seen, you guys have the talent and know how to make something truly unique. You already have a following in this community, give us something we haven't seen before.
