I drop by VIS Racing today they do have a evolution body kit for $950,front,side,rear,door caps,and maybe eye brows and a spoiler,but the guy could not find the magazine to show me because the guy that knew about the kit was not there.he was the one LS400in520 talk to.The bad thing is that the kit is made of fiberglass and do you guys know if it is safe to have a fiberglass kit? I think the VIS one is a copy,but this is how the kit looks like.

or i can get this Devil's Kit for $2000.

What do you guys think?

Are those REAL kits or knock-offs?

I love the Devils kit but it's not a realistic kit to drive around on unless your car is a weekend driver (at best!)...

As for the Evolution kit...eh, I don't really like it...I think the Exclusive Euro kit (which is made by the same company BTW) is much better looking...

If VIS is actually IMPORTING the real Evolution kit, they should be able to get the Exc. Euro kit too...

I agree with Manaray. The Exclusive kit is "mild" enough to be an everyday driver. The Evolution kit is just asking for cracks, especially if it's fiberglass. If you could Edogg, can you ask about the Exclusive kit??? I'm getting about 4 months pay tax free so I might be able to afford some other "toys".


BTW I'm in Greece, finally hit some land!!!

Hey,
ViS is selling a knock off kit. the reason they dont' have a pic si because they are probably going through someone else to get the imatation. I think i can find the shop that makes the imatation here in the USA, which will be much cheaper if you guys want it.
See i'm stil around.. Just let me know.. i've been very busy so it might take a while, but i'll gladly help out.
Tony

Manaray that Exclusive Euro Kit looks pretty plainish to me,i like full bumpers on kits.It looks alright but not really my type of kit.I really love the Wald V3 kit but i am still waiting for gsintensive,man where is that boy?

Zushwa:if VIS is really importing a real kit,i will ask for the Exclusive Euro Kit for you.

LS400in520:even though it is a copy, i would still like to see a picture of it,is it really the one on the Evolution Website?
