Sup Guys, I was just wondering is $1,499.97 a lot of money for an AIT Racing K1 Wide Body Kit?


And please tell me what you think of the body kit, thank you so much

its worth it for something that you don't drive daily

I drive my car everyday..

 

your not going to wanna with the kit on.

i think that's what hes trying to say unless you plan on putting it on shows and stuff.

 

it would be impossible to drive with that for a daily

For $30 dollars more, you can just get the CF version, there will be less parts that will need to be painted:

Well its not like I commute dozens of miles a day...Most I do is 5 or so

 

I hate how the grill is divided up, do you think it would be cheaper to buy this kit in pieces?

 

I think you usually end up paying more when you buy everything in pieces, I could be wrong thou.

 

just wondering because i want to buy the kaminari kit but why would it be impossible for him to drive the car everyday?

 

Cause too many accidents because of all the head turning I'll cause , seriously I don't know....I don't see any difference from getting a car lowered with the ground effects kit to this.

 

Me neither, the tC is my daily driver and I have a body kit, no problems here.

 

with a kit like that, you'll definitely be a head turner driving around town. in a good way, just be on the look out for anyone following you to wanna jack your isht.

 

That's true .

 

Also thiers a payment method offered at the website for 75 dollars per month, what do you guys think about that?


Personally I think its great that their offering this because broke **** people like me can finally trully make their car look unique.

 

I personally like that wide body look that kit offers however what I dont like it the openings along the wheel wells..

As far as the daily driving and not wanting to when I had my celica which was all kitted up, after a few minor mishaps I wanted to garage it and never drive it again. You need to pay extra special attention to curbs and such since the car is now wider than your used to... You will need to be more careful of driveways and parking lots and even poorly constructed roads, because even if the car isnt lowered the kit will make the car lower to the ground. Believe me when I tell you the first time you get a scratch in the kit your gonna be ____ed (I was).. I say do it I am going to as well (different kit) just be very causious of you moves...

 

Whe installing a wide body kit do you have to use "Bondo"? or w/e its called in order to make it look as if its a part of the car?


Thanks,

installing and painting a wide body kit can easily cost more than the kit itself. and if you try and be cheap, your car WILL look ridiculous. if you're talking about installment loans or whatever, this might not be for you. go to a reputable shop first and find out if you can afford to have this done right because i've never heard of a body shop payment plan. you might just end up with a body kit in your garage that you'll have to sell for less than you spent on it.

 

Great point random....

Poison the answer to your question on the "bondo thing" yes you do ONLY if you want it to be "molded" or part of the car to give it that factory belonging look to it. Now this makes a daily driver even harder because the more hard driving you do (I.E pot holes,, bumps, ect) can make the bondo crack over time therefore sending your car back to the body shop. Give carefull consideration to what you will be getting yourself into and be sure its something you want.... IMO

 

The K1 kit is can be driven on a daily basis. Now I would suggest that for any car to use a clear bra to avoid paint chips.
