The Varis Arising-II kit is growing on me

Has anyone done a Varis front/ amuse rear combo?

What the Z34 needs is something to round off the rear

the normal z34 ends in kind of a stump

the pre-15 z34 is too long and bulky

Amuse kinda curves and meets at a point, which gives the illusion of less mass even if it is "longer". it works with the rest of the kit

i like varis but i dont think i'd mix. varis is kinda busy, its got a diffuser, vents, stuff going on. It needs to stay with the rest of the kit too

I don't like how the amuse rear appears to have a large hole like thing in the middle,and then what seems to be a bridge going through it. Looks so awkard to me.

I like the Nismo rears, but the diffuser/lip part look a little weak to me.

Zele rears look tough as with the enclosed exhaust, one of my favourites.

And varis rear lip, probably my second favourite, simple but aggressive touch.

Also when you purchase the Varis front you have to accompany it with the Varis fenders as well or you will have this weird flow from your front to fenders.

Varis vented fenders are 10mm wider and stock, thats why you add the extra pieces on each corner, so it transitions from the fender's wider with to the bumper (which . . . again . . . is the same size as stock

When you order the fenders they include the add-on pieces
Ohhh gotcha! I thought the bumper originally came like that. I never got to see my kit in raw form but only the finished product. I guess the body shop attached it so well that I thought it came like that with the bumper. Thanks for the clarification.

Those are needed only if you get the fenders, because they are wider then stock. You don't need them if you just get the front.

Stock fenders with Varis front.
