visually bottom heavy. the tall sides of the car, the low roof, added with the 3" visual drop, and all that visual mass added around the immediate bottom of the car really weigh it down. looks fugly.

hey deedub.

I too think that is mostly weak for Veilside. Granted I'm not a fan of their body kits in the first place, but I'm sure that something more ridiculous will come out in the future. No offense to anybody that likes it... I'm just a big fan of the all-go, no-show theory. Just my $.02.

Is that a lip spoiler or a snowplow??

Looks like someone left the back bumper in the oven and it started to melt and drip off...

The back looks like it's tacked on. It just doesn't flow with the rest of the car.

don't like it one bit..it really just looks bolted on...makes the bottom look a lot bigger than it really has to be...without a 7 foot wing it looks like it's missing something

HA!

I just think it has too many edges on it, I mean, the 8 has a fairly smooth body line, and then to go to that angular skirt, it is just a little too much. That is why everyone seems to like the Mazdaspeed kit so much, it keeps with the curves of the car... makes it look like a really sweet car... vice a car with a really extreme skirt on it.

Looks like a kit that really belongs on a different car.

Not for me!

not too bad or flashy for a veilside kit, but just doesn't compare to the MS...

reminds me of the first Z33 (350z aka Fairlady) they made, simple lip kit, then they came out with full bodykits and WIDE body kits, cant wait for the next versions...

It would be nice if it was a real wide body conversion for people who want to race their 8. But for a daily ride, it's too rice.
