I got the pics... however I got them really late today... I am going to watermark them tonight or tomorrow and I will post them.... The kit will be instock in about 80 days and I have a special incentive for people that this kit will not be made out of fiberglass or urethane but will be a special material that is going to change the way body kits are made and how they hold up.

Carbon fiber? Nah that would be uber expensive. A special polyurethane type resin? Ballistics grade plastic? Damn it man, the suspense is killing me.

Actual images of the body kit have been posted to CreativeCompacts.Com.... I had to do this to protect the copyright images on the photos since some companies and individuals like to steal photos and say its theirs'.

AT THIS TIME THE KIT IS EXCLUSIVE TO CREATIVECOMPACTS.COM

No other distributor, shop, buddy or company will be selling this kit. It is being produced solely for CreativeCompacts.Com

Even though pricing has been posted, full kit price and pre-orders are subject to a cheaper price. Still working on the numbers to make sure we can offer this kit at a very affordable price.

As far as the material its made out of... As you will see in the product descriptions, it is made from Aero-Flex. Aeroflex is a manufacturing process incorporated in to the Fibers manufacturing process that allows the fiberglass parts to flex, bend, and conform to configurations never achieved with standard fiberglass products. By incorporating Aeroflex technology into the manufacturing process, we have eliminated a vast majority of the disadvantages of a standard fiberglaa item without sacrificing factors such as overall finish, weight, and COST.

So what does this mean? Well I will have images later from my trip to California where I literally sat on a Aero-flex bumper so hard it was about FLAT on the ground and it did not crack. We jumped up and down on a hood, no cracks.. We even twisted a front bumper 180 degrees and there wasn't even a stress crack. What this means is, for the same price of fiberglass, we are going to be able to offer you a Urethane characteristic product.

If anyone has any questions, just post em up and I will answer them.

Pics look pretty good. I am not sure I like the sideskirts as much but it is hard to tell when you cant see a full shot of the whole kit on the car rather than individual shots. I am really digging the front and rear bumpers though! When do you think you will have a full kit preorder price? Also how much would shipping be on a full kit? Also I hope that the kit will fit 100% perfect right? Ive seen some bad fitting kits out there before, and I would much rather wait a little extra more time to make sure it fits right instead of rushing a kit to market.

Nice body kit, I like it alot. Need a straight back-end shot though to get a good glimpse of the rear bumper. Will this body kit be on your car when you come to the local BBQ on the 17th?

Also will the stock grill (or a grillcraft) still fit in place or will it have to be mesh? Maybe you can come up with a nice set of grills to go with it (like the black grillcrafts) rather than generic mesh grill. That would set it off real nice!

Fitment - With not releasing the kit till June, you can rest assured we are NOT rushing a kit to the market and am going to make sure the fitment is good. Also that is a plus with the AeroFlex that fitment can be adjusted IF Need be.

As far as pre-order price... Again still working on numbers.

I do have a dead on rear bumper shot just didn't get it online at the time I did the others. Completely my fault and I will get it up hopefully tomorrow or later today

I will not have this kit installed on our company car in April since the pieces will not be ready till June.

We will be offering the bumper at this time with simply mesh. We did change the grill opening to give the bumper a lot more flare and not look like a hacked up bumper.

Yeah, I noticed the drastic change of the opening after comparing it to a stock one - I dont know what I was thinking, lol.

Yeah that lower grill opening is perfect for say....an intercooler :D

Wonder how well it'll flex once painted.

How much lower does it extend towards the ground compared to stock?

Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions! I was thinking about getting the stock ground effects, but Im pretty sure I will be waiting for this kit now...
