Burnout Body Kit
 
I'm getting my income tax check pretty soon and I want that Burnout Body Kit from Japan. Only trouble is I wouldn't have a clue on how to order one. I tried converting the price in Yen to U.S. and came up with $799.29? (Fiberglass). Now how do I get one?

Anybody read Japanese?

get ready for shipping cost.. add another 300 bucks.. then another 400+ bucks for paint just to match your car since they don't come painted...

TxRx8 02-18-2004 11:35 PM

that's fine, I just want to order it. BTW I'll get painted for way less than 400.

HOld the phone... these side skirts plus the air damn from the appearance package... that could work. The problem with the MS ones is the CF line along the bottom, but these are either FRP or CF and paint the whole thing.

i like that front lip.. i just question the clearence. anyone got dimensions or how low it is to the ground.. inclduing a 1.5" drop would be nice since i plan on getting the springs soon

TxRx8 02-19-2004 11:07 PM

I'm pretty sure the "8" in the pic is dropped.
BTW this is what the ad says word for word:

"Does KD project 4 stage how the do the impression which has roundness actively sharply? it is raised to the sport characteristic Eextremity? as for KD IV those topics securely thoroughness pursuit. The aerodynamic characteristic of FRONT HALF NOSE efficient the rectification. By striking out simple & the high-class impression stylishly evolution. Also SIDE SKIRT sharp it emphasizes, producing the line which at the same time gives the sense of security. It starts making the flow of the ideal air. REAR UNDER DIFFRACTER while utilizing genuine originality that way, succeeds in the simple ria tile which has force. Furthermore the elegant impression and sense of value it is finished ideally with balance well high degree of completion without spirit EYE LINE making strange feeling feel. Preparing every part carbon specification. Furthermore it tightens sharply, with design work for the unique adult elegance it appeals. The style which becomes new in the sport scene was produced."

The context is weird, but that's what it says.

Anyone have any new info on this?

IMO, I would leave the entire package as is. I like the body kit in it's present black and think it looks nice. I have always liked black and color over chrome for body accents. I think it looks very clean as it is. The only change I would make is painting the eye lids, though, I didn't see them at first.

I think this kit is intended to be used either way... in carbon color or painted. Personally... I kinda like it in carbon fiber... why waste the money painting it?

TxRx8 03-03-2004 09:11 AM

I'd like to see more pics of this kit. Maybe some photochops of the kit color-matched to the rest of the car. Anyone good with photoshop?

TxRx8 03-03-2004 01:04 PM

Hey gunit, go to this link http://www.ks-auto.com/turning/original/kd4.html and find out if we can get this kit in the U.S. And how much it would cost to ship it over. Much appreciated.

Hmmmmmm, carbon fiber trim to match my carbon fiber wing!

(Not the park bench wing, it's MS style)

epitrochoid 03-03-2004 02:35 PM

IMO 'lip kits' are the way to go. you get a modified look and keep a little of the OEM+ appearence without it looking like everyone else with an appearence package. post up some pics if you get this!

D MENAC 7 03-03-2004 10:42 PM

I agree, I have liked the Rmagic lip since seeing it.

Just the lip alone would be $400 after shipping. Then there is the painting. It's urethane so it would be better than fiberglass.

However, the total package of the Burnout Body kit looks very nice, IMO. If I had the bucks, I'd be interested.

I have the wing sitting right here on my couch. Just haven't put it on yet! Hope to get it done either this weekend or sometime next week. If I can't get to it this weekend, I'll place it on the car and take some pics to see how it looks.

TxRx8 03-05-2004 09:49 AM

A CF wing would look very sweet with this kit. Too bad I cant really afford a MS wing, especially a CF MS wing! Who's gonna be the first to get this kit?!

AutoBahnRX8 03-05-2004 09:51 AM

Maybe, just maybe!
