can show more pictures of the front back and rear with the kit and side skirts?

 

good sample for ppl aiming for the sports sx.

 

 

Hope this would be useful.

 

Had a close encounter, almost stuck with car unlock at Carpark.. Key drop from the side to the underside of the seat.. almost cant take out [:/]

wondering how's the back?

I find the front of the bodykit unappealing... the side skirts seem to ... have that 'paste on' look.

 

TY for pic, helpful!

thanks for the illustration! you even managed to find a EX model for a visual comparison keke.

 

looks like the body kit is pretty thin, good point is it doesn't result in the driver having to slow down and look out at humps and slopes fearing the skirting will be scratched, and can be also seen as a sacrificial layer that protects the original bodyworks.

I just wish this bodykit looked nicer, haha. But one good point for the side-skirt is that they cover up that unsightly seam between front & rear quarter panels. The one below the front-end of the front doors.

anything nicer will have to look elsewhere hehe, change the complete package for the "sports" look, more like "ah beng" look to me though.

hehe i think its better to bring your car to a workshop and get the dent hammered out. maybe the scratches are on the clear coat lacquer and the paintwork can still be polished back. the side skirt also cant fit properly on a dented body panel keke

Indeed, don't need to worry while reversing... unless overloaded. Anyway bought the Sports for the HID & Sunroof, so bodykit or not doesn't make a diff.

 

drwatson:

 

No harm asking. Better ask them to knock back, before fixing the bodykit, coz the surface isn't reali flat,

AD always more expensive, especially CNC. Try workshop outside, maybe half.

i had something like this. They had to pull out the dent, weld and paint back. Cost was about $350 IIRC. About 4 years back.

 

Maybe you check outside WS as well.
