The body kits are hot and stuff and I love both their stylings but why hasn't anybody tried these on for size?

OMG loves it!!!
Anyway yeah...it's kinda sad there are so many good looking body kits available for the xA (Amondull, C-One, Noblesse, etc. etc), yet it seems that everyone just wants to slap on a Kenstyle or Fabulous. If anybody is interested in the A Package bodykit toysport.com sells them for a non JDM price of $875 thats a few more than a Kenstyle or Fab Rip off kit. I wonder if they could obtain the B Package :ponder: I emailed them asking them how the fitament was, if there was little or no modifications to fit it on the xA. I also asked, because you order them by colour code, if the Ist white is anything like the Polar White of the xA, and last but not least if there was a JDM wait time to obtain it (you know how some things won't come in for like 4-6 weeks BS), so when they reply I'll give you guys the 411
So yeah....I'm pretty sure there are alot of peeps here that have seen this kit, but for those who havent....well now you have...and for those interested now you know a website that could get it for you

i know fab is a body kit, duh. But still my point being that it seems as if the kenstlye and fab are the only ones that you ever see put on an xA, which is cool and all but there's so much more options...

you could always make you own, like me. i got a kenstyle knock off and moulded it into the factory covers. there are no lines, looks like a full bodykit.

The Aero Type II is the best looking lip spoiler IMHO. There was a site selling them (and tons of other ist stuff), but can't find it now. If I ever get a spolier it will be the Type II.

Nyahaha~ once I figure out how I'm going to work out the rear apron (the exhaust pipe is higher then JP models so that needs to be modified) I'll see if I can post the pics~ The bigger question is if I should just replace the whole exhaust to a catback or find a welder to modify the hanger....

I think Kenstyle still looks good to me.

M-Flo...where'd you gut your B Package from? I've seen you're car around eightball!! A month or so ago I think you were exiting off carmel mountain, unless I'm wrong...but yes, the kenstyle is hot. I really like alot of the lip kits available for the xA.

no I live up in temecula but I use to work at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, so I usally take the 56 to the 15, and sitting in traffic one day I happened to look to my right and I see you're car drive past me. The only reason I remember is the placement of the tanabe stickers!

MAN!!!!!! I was looking into that, but my told me that the JDM color was a pearl white, and not the same as our polar white! But oh well, I guess not getting it was a good thing, as I will be selling my car soon. . .

:-(

And yes, I do like these non-standard kits. . . super exclusivity. . . hahahaha! And being pre-painted is a huge plus.

I am just tired of only seeing those two kits. There are a whole lot more kits out there if you do a search. Even though they are up in price and take a while to get. I just wish people would stop trying to pass off knockoff kits as the real ones.
Maybe i'ts just that those people like those 2 kits, I mean I hate seeing the Fabulous kit on that many xA's too, but I still want one no matter what . Just my 2 cents, yo.

I have a Noblesse kit on my car. I would recommend it to anyone. It keeps the lines of the car very well.
