1000 times better!!! Whoever in your company said "hey guys lets make flairs" should be punished

here is a general view of what it will look like with the mouth the way the people want it..





^Here is a smaller mouth with the tow hitch, I think its a good idea to keep the tow hitch...

Make sure the two holes on each side fit some popular piaa fog lights. Don't want it to be like the OEM where we can't find a fog light to fit there.

The more flair you add to these pieces, the wider the wheel (or the higher the offset) needs to be to look right. I can't tell you how many other cars I see with flaired out kits and narrow ___ wheels.

we are tapering the flared bottom down a little bit but not like the original pics b/c the sideskirts would not flow with the front bumper.

Nearly every body kit flares out some at the bottom so that the skirts don't have to go straight down to the ground.

We'll post pictures of the front bumper and skirts on tuesday with the revisions and go from there.

We also have an xB vented prototype hood I am finishing which I'll share pics of on tues/wed

examples of kits that have a flared lower lip.

All of those except for the last 4 didn't have anything like what you planned, but they are all great kits except for the last for. All the other flares are really mild, stick with that plan and you'll be golden

Take into consideration, white bumpers with flash. Defined lines that they can see, we can’t really see from the image. I agree with adding a flare on the bottom, the stock tC bumper curves in giving the tC the narrow look. With a lip the tC is blocked off a little more. Notice on the BMW… doesn’t curve in a much as a stock tC but the lip extends out further? I say curve the bumper in a little and make a spoiler for the bottom. The bumper now is subtle and clean… not too aggressive, but with a spoiler on the bottom would make a night and day effect on the tC.



Maybe these shots would help more..

Kreativeimport,

Out of all the cars you posted only four of them I seen as somewhat "Clean" looking designs.. The other cars with flairs you posted were pretty extreme... Even at that the flaired cars posted seemed to flow better where as the tCs looks choppy like so...

This picture shows exactly what I referring to. Even with a big meaty wheel/tires combo, that flair would still stick out. Just my opinion, but if you want to make the car look wider, this will not accomplish it. It will just make the wheels/track look narrower. But again, thumbs up for looking to the customer for input.

LOL, When you go to a body kit site like andys autosports do you think they personaly make all the kits they sell? No.. But they do water mark them so people don't use them on their own sites... etc etc....

tctunerz steals everything....

I provided images to tCTunerz as they are an authorized dealer of Kreative Import Technology Inc. Parts and we work side by side with them on development of new products for the tC.

We'll share more images of a revised kit early next week and go from there.
