I do like that kit right there. I like it because it doesn't need the side and the rear ground effets to make it look complete. Once again, I can spend money, but not great amounts. I'm looking at gettting NOS installed in my car, maybe 100 shot dry. Been talking to Sean about it, and then talked to a place that installs around here. Mayb $750 installed. I would get the NOS first, then the ground kit. I want my car to be fast before it looks fast. If I could just get the front facia, it would be great. And not have to put on the rest of the kit later. I don't mind changing my lights to the white ones, I saw that you can buy them on the same page, but I think I am going to try and go for NOS first.
I to was inches away from putting squeez in my car. I had a kit sitting in my back seat for a few days at the cost of only 500 installed with a red botton mounted on my streering wheel and a automatic vavle relay so i wouldn't have to manualy open the bottles but when i took the sett up to my tunner her wanted to replace the head gaskets with custome titanium ones and make some other motor modifications to run only 75 shot of nos, it can be done but not on a stock motor a stock chip and a stock tourque converter, if you want to risk it, try a 60 shot first but even that is q

Sorry accidentally posted without finishing:
questionable. I’m sure you have heard this a hundred times but our cars are not physically built to handle sudden boost from nos. Good luck and be careful.

Post NOS

I think I may have changed my mind about the NOS, because my car isn't going to be as sports car. I am going to go for the kit instead, after prom that is. My money right now is going toward prom night, which is april 26th. But after that, I can start saving some money for the body kit. Hopefully it will work well.

NYC, that's not wise sports. that's auto-couture....

bad news, i think it's going to take some time to get your kits quick b/c my importer has some personal problems and i think he went to japan before he gave me the price of you kits....

i will try to contact him in japan.

ps> i am sorry for this and you can just buy kits from anyone who can get you a good price if you don't want to wait. otherwise, you are not in hurry, it will be great if we can do some business.
ps2> in japan, kits go on for some bargain sale sometimes like in usa. if we are lucky we can get that chance and import. it will save at least $500-$800.

thanks.

Default No Hurry

Blitz,

Listen its not a rush job, My ES and I can wait (I waited this long)
I want the wise sports kit.....but price is always the main issue....if you can get it for the 500-800 dollar savings...we will do business!........As long as you keep me updated I'll wait to see what # you come up with and we will take it from there......The Auto Couture it is nice but I like the contours better on the Wise Sports kit......Just keep me updated Blitz...you have my email address.

i'm also interested in getting a body kit and am willing to wait if there is any way you guys could help. Although my car is a 1994 and i noticed you have the different body style in the 1997, i thought you might still be able to help. If you could keep me posted that would be great

i saw at the tokyo auto salon too (the black ES).
trust me, i spent two days walking around at that darned auto salon back in january and that was the ONLY ES there. Windoms are not in high demand to be fixed up as much as they used to be. i remember walking over to the veilside table and asking if i could see their catalog. i told the guy i wanted to see some stuff for an ES and he had this look like "you're not serious are you?" and he pointed me over to the wheels and steering wheel section. on top of that, they told me i wouldn't be able to do a steering wheel swap by myself cuz i was a girl.... bummer.
i know i'm drifting away from the original subject there but that picture just reminded me of everything.

you are right that black ES is in fact the only ONE in the show.. there were lot of SC, LS, GS in the show though..windom is not popular car to dress up over there.. that why i'm selling my ES now and getting a GS. anyways.. may i ask you how did you get in for both day?? i thought the ticket was only vaild for one day only?? did you pay twice???
