Default Rado Widebody Kit

I remember seeing a thread regarding this kit, and how you couldnt find it unless you wanted to pay a fortune and even then it would be tough. Came across this on eBay:

Its not rare. I can thin k of at least 5 sites that have this kit. That price is pretty average too. Just be prpared for 60+ hours of bodywork.

Front isn't nice enough to have that kind of backend. Would have to mix & match.

Oh no, I have never wanted it, but I always thought that it was hard to come by so I posted it.

I am likely sticking with the stock kit. I don't have the lip spoiler yet but I would like to get that on there soon. I like subtle exterior body modifications.

This = puke for me. I was posting it for others to see really.

I already replaced the rear struts with adjustable koni ones and adjusted them to the stiffest possition. i will try to see if i can find some harder springs.

If i was to cut the rear fender flare area then i wouldent have a solid way to mount the flares. and then still it would hit the fender flares.
