Does anyone here know anything about this car and the kit on it?

 

No, but personally (and keep in mind I hate body kits) that that is the worst kit I have ever seen on a tC. The fenders look way off and do not flow at all. The front has a terrible looking shelf/lip thing going and it is easy to tell that it will have that typical floppy, cheap, cracked look going if driven much at all in a few years.

Sorry to bash on it. This is only my opinion, which will differ from others. Again, I dont like ANY kits on cars unless they are custom made out of sheet metal or are very well formed into the body and are properly braced from beneath. So basically, if Chip Foose hand built it like him and his shop does on thier show cars (not the ones on overhaulin.. those are nice.. but you should see his real stuff) then I would like it But they also make sure everything flows properly, which is what I like.

 

looks nice but ya i can see where he is coming from with the cant drive it w/o it catching somethink and stress-cracking it...
all i kno about is the tires on the car......

 

dont like it.

 

isnt that the obsidian kit?

Just scroll down a bit...you'll find it. Too much sticker-obsession for my tastes. But then again, my car isn't sponsored. Its a daily driver.

 

I agree, the fenders look horrible. That's why we are going lip kit instead of bodykits.

 

That is the Grand touring body kit.

 

more info on her and her cars can be found here... http://www.kathryngallagher.com/

look in her garage to see her rides.

 

supposedly it has a CF rear diffuser on it, but I can't see it in the pics anywhere.

 

A very lovely lady... , a woman + car = Hot!

 

wow, all that hard work.... and look at the antenna

 

look's better than some of the car's i have seen. but still not a very good flow to the kit look at the front near the fender's where it flare's out. just my .02 cent's though.

 

hey, heyyy... some people have a thing about putting honduh parts on a toyota.. (including me)... i'm still rockin' the stockie.

 

i think it is a great looking car!

yea, the NON-WIDEBODY URETHANE kit. i love it and use to have, but i sold it to get my house. i will b getting another 1

 

All I see when I look at cars like that is the day that it inevitably hits a speed bump and cracks to hell.
Not my thing, but whatever floats yer boat.

so it is, whoops, the buddy clud kits looks nicer though.

 

Well it's not that urethane is indestructable, but urethane is very very less likely to crack in comparison to fiberglass. The stock bumper on the tC is made of a urethane type of plastic. So are most bumper covers on modern cars. They get scraped up when they hit curbs, they don't crack unless they're hit with extreme accident related force. The reason I know this: I fix wrecked cars for a living and I've seen hundreds of urethance bumpers that withstand a lot. I had a fully fiberglass kitted celica once. Even fiberglass has to be hit somewhat hard to actually crack. When I had my celica I hit the front end on dips in the road over and over. It never cracked, it just got scraped pretty badly.
