Headlights rock. The wheels are ok. I don't like vinyl (just a bunch of stickers to me) and really prefer solid paint schemes. My problem with the body kits is that they take away from the original look... and if you actually drive the car, they look like hell in a couple of years. I see so many cars with body kits that are sagging and cracked. Fast and the Furious

But, whoever built it did a damn good job ( other than those crappy zip tie looking things on the front) It looks neat, just not my kind of thing. I like clean looking... and fast :-)

I really like this kit. i think it's my favorite widebody kit out for the tC so far....

"The upper grill shoulda been changed with the rest of the front. " <~~~ mos def

i think this kit would look real good if the car had shaved handles and were painted tangerine pearl (great color on an import IMO)

if anyone knows where to get this kit please post!

Ok, I have no idea what you just said, i dont refer to rice as something you would define a human as.

Thumbs up. I'd take some of the edgy feel out of it--nothing a little fiberglassing skill can't do. Leave the stickers off too.

That's a good looking kit.

I love it! Looks like it belongs on the Nurburgring going 150, but I'm not sure about using it as a daily driver. And, by the time you add those rollers, whew!, looks expensive!

My car is an extension of me. So if you call my car, your calling me rice.
On the other hand, that's not my car, and I was totally kidding.
You obviously did not find the humor in it becuase you realize it's offensive, somaybe we should just drop the "rice".

I did not find humor in it because I did not find it to be funny. Saying that someones car is rice is not offensive if it is the truth, and I will continue to call peoples car rice if in my opinion it is the truth. (By the way if you look at my first post here, you will see that I never actually called this car rice, i was merely replying to someone elses post) You cant link the adjective rice to one culture. Rice is a disease that has effected every type of culture/ethnicity that we have in the US. The fact that you believe your car is an extension of you is a completely different story. Most people including myself dont feel the same about a car.

In response to the people who pointed out the zip ties on the front, they're not zip ties. It's the support rods for the front wind splitter.
