Any new updates

ЯX-8 03-04-2010 09:28 PM

No new updates yet, they just took on another project which is keeping them real busy. They're working on the new Honda CR-Z, I guess they want to be the first manufacture to come out with a kit for the Honda CR-Z. I'll keep the thread updated on new and further developments..

ЯX-8 03-10-2010 05:49 AM

Bump!

Silverisk8 03-11-2010 07:09 AM

looks amazing. Orginally I was thinking only oem lip, but now I might be tempted to get this once the finished product is out.

mike[piston eater] 03-11-2010 11:28 AM

god this is ugly for people with really bad taste like fat chicks or girls with acne
another public service anouncement brought to you from so cal were all the shit goes down

bumblebeerx8 03-11-2010 08:50 PM

the sides look too busy indeed. but im getting the front the second i know its for sale

ЯX-8 03-17-2010 07:14 AM

Bump! The rear bumper is primered, looks very nice! It would look a lot better painted with a clear coat on it, but we'll just have to wait until that time comes, which is hopefully soon!

bumblebeerx8 03-17-2010 10:13 PM

looks good but too close to stock for me

Rotr8 03-18-2010 06:32 AM

Looks pretty good, I could do without the raise as it nears the liscence plate area but still looks pretty good, I love how smooth everything is on the underside, but I think the exhaust shroud area is waaaayyy big, you'll need Racing Beat dual tip for that,,,

pdxhak 03-18-2010 01:20 PM

The profile of the rear looks good but when you look at it straight on it gets very bulky. This kit is way too busy for my tastes.

ЯX-8 03-27-2010 04:57 AM

Bump! Release time is April..

bumblebeerx8 03-27-2010 05:50 PM

will this have to be bought through the japan site or the usa

SiLVeRE8 03-28-2010 02:25 AM

OMG the front end is so damn sexy! wondering about the price

ЯX-8 03-31-2010 05:26 PM

Bump! You guys will be able to purchase the kit directly from C-West USA or one of their dealers.

SiLVeRE8 03-31-2010 06:17 PM

I tried searching for it, but there is no info about it yet... maybe its too new, but I think this is what I want

Rotr8 03-31-2010 07:37 PM

That is alot of F-ing dust, bumper looks good though,,,

2tone 03-31-2010 07:56 PM

boy i came to this thread late!!

i agree skirts are way too busy

front really came around once they ditched the extra holes in the bottom

i am not feeling the back. it's ok, but like someone said, it's too close to stock. i bet some will really like that...a cleaner version of oem rear basically, but to me not worth the money.

bumblebeerx8 03-31-2010 09:18 PM

ive contacted c west usa and no reply back about it yet.

ZachLegend 03-31-2010 09:18 PM

Stoked on this!

SiLVeRE8 04-01-2010 02:37 AM

well I've been checking out some bumper which C-West makes for other cars and they don't seem too pricey compared to majority of the JDM kits out there. Kind of a good news, but don't know for sure yet.....

Rotr8 04-01-2010 06:28 AM

Looking at the way the bottom portion of the splitter in the wheel well area and the corner of the rear bumper, I would think that the INGS side skirts would be the cleanest setup instead of the busy sides C-West is offering.

bumblebeerx8 04-01-2010 09:26 PM

im going to use my veilside with the carbon accent in the rear and carbon ms rear apron

urbanlegendrx8 04-15-2010 01:45 PM

Have always been a fan of C West and am very excited for this kit....Is there a release date yet?? Also is this kit aero tested??? I will probably be doing a little bit of competitive road racing....

RicanKnight 04-17-2010 07:37 PM

It is a very good looking kit, i'm actually hoping it comes out soon before i end up buying another one. any updates would be nice :)

8upbad 04-18-2010 01:26 PM

subscribed! C-west wtf!

Wow, looks good.

pdxhak 06-10-2010 08:27 AM

Still too busy for me.

bumblebeerx8 06-10-2010 10:11 AM

jasonrxeight 06-10-2010 10:59 AM

bumblebeerx8 06-10-2010 11:04 AM

8upbad 06-10-2010 12:13 PM

Is there a price yet??? I have $1,000 and some cute kids :)

bumblebeerx8 06-10-2010 12:16 PM

Means more air for a fmic and radiator and I got a grand set aside to for the front

lks817 06-10-2010 01:46 PM

Not bad at all!

Krazed_Rx8 06-10-2010 02:37 PM

Looks great!

bassy 06-10-2010 05:49 PM

I'd pick the authentic MS kit over this.

kersh4w 06-11-2010 01:56 AM

I would contact C-West and ask them what the better option would be..

/\ Would look good with my CF licence plate backing and my exhaust... they should give me a kit to see... lol.. Can't wait to see it in other colors.

SiLVeRE8 06-12-2010 06:40 AM

I love it!!!!

chunbelievable 06-13-2010 09:31 PM

I'd actually like it a lot if it didn't have the squares where the fog lights normally are. The side skirts are crazy busy! The FD skirts weren't that busy.
