Default New body kit, more sedate than the usual transformer style.

It would appear that they took the stock body styling and extended the lines down slightly. Gives the car a more grounded look while not being too overly aggressive. I am not condoning this manufacturer as I have had no experience with them. This was simply the only location I could find this picture.

So if anyone is planning, like I am, to turbocharge your new Si and want something that adds a little beef to the body, I believe this is a good idea. Now it says in the pictures that it is a concept, and I would have to see pictures of a finished product before ever buying anything of this sort. I think it would look even better with the addition of the HFP side skirts versus those in the conceptual. So what does everyone else think, any comments on this particular manufacturer as I am relatively new to the import "scene".

I have to say I think it's crap about the photoshopped picture as well. And hell yeah the car is screaming, would you scream if someone put gold colored rims on you. I shudder at the thought, I wonder if they are 100 spoke Datons, say...15's?

Not feeling it at all. Maybe I'm just a jdm junky, but I love bomex / mugen kits. They actually test them and there's a purpose for their designs, not just for looks, but for performance.

It's okay, but I'm not that impressed. My personal preference is the body kit that was installed on the Honda Sport Concept car (see link below). It actually had partial light weight carbon fiber construction and a "wide-body" rear fender set up (required molding and addt'l body work). Furthermore it re-routed the exhaust through a rear diffuser that allowed for the same center exhaust as the original 06 Si Concept. This body kit gives the car a wicked stance. Only catch is...I haven't seen it for sale yet, and when I do I expect that it will be pricey! Plus, installation/body work would be a little more difficult than conventional "bolt-on" kits
