Z28 turbo body kit

I've been looking around on the internet and ran into this pic http://www.americansportscar.com/cgi...w.pl?s-125.jpg and was wondering if anyone has seen this kit in person or has this kit. I think it would look good on a different color car. Let me know what you think.

I have, at the local car show. Can you say bad *** . It gives the car alittle bit of an import look, but its awesome. The guy at the show had a black one, he did not have that spolier he had the three piece one, along with modded 91-92 gfx and the soild rs style grill.

yea thats what i said then i was like that color don't look to good to begin with. if it had different ground effects in the front it would look a lot better. I like the whole idea of the fenders how they stick out further. But thats just my opinion.

Except for "invisible" I don't think there's a color made that could possibly make that look good.

Guy I went to school with briefly had one, in a white color.

I thought it looked frigging badass. If done tastefully without a tacky hood, no funky paint, and no louvers the widebody kits look pretty good. IMO of course. Unfortunately I've never seen a pic of one tastefully done online. It's been awhile too so maybe my opinions were screwed back then, lol. I would like to see a few more that were tastefully done like that.

I think it look really good with the color I am getting my car painted this weekend. House of Kulors Kandy Apple Red over Silver Metalic base. Its going to be dark red and its going to look awesome. My pops is going to be pissed after the winter when he has to paint that body kit if i decide to get which I am really looking to do. I just can't wait to get my damn car back next week.
