Default which wide body kit should i go with ?

This last week i got in a car wreck and well front and rear bumpers are messed up with dents. there are scratches through out the whole car and the side skirts are ruined. so now i figured i would save some money and buy a wide body kit but now i dont know which one i should get. I like the obsidian, the ait racing and the chris rado. what does everyone thinck ? which one would be the best quality ? i dont want one that will crack or warp. thanx for the suggestions.

I have the rado kit, & the fitment was garbage. I would honestly go with a regular body kit rather than widebody because molding is expensive; unless money is no object. Are you planning on daily driving it? Because if you are, then cracking & warping is inevitable. I rarely drive my tC for fear of that.

If you're going with a regular body kit, which I would reccommend, I would definitely 100% for sure go with the Kaminari body kit. It's made out of Urethane so it flexes without cracking, plus it has the best fitment of all the body kits out for the tC without having to do modifications, & it looks aggresive on the road.

Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT go with a fiberglass kit, it WILL crack with one hit on the road.

Good luck with whatever you choose.
