Default Opinion/request on this JDM kit

Was wondering if anyone have an opinion on this kit, especially on a black sc400. I don't like it in white too much, but my car is black.

Too Honda civic'y
plus buying a full kit on ebay ? I wouldn't feel comfy.
There are many better kits around, I think an SC is too classy for that kit.
Just my opinion.

thats not a jdm kit just a copy of a jdm kit which is the do luck kit. its ok i wouldnt get it simply beacuse its a copy and most likely will have pretty bad fitment issues. i think one of the cl members has this kit . the thing i like most about it is the back piece. good luck on findin a kit

This kit is probably made by VIS, do not buy...You'll go through a nightmare with the fitment...

Its just a Do-Luck knock off... I remember someone saying that they were gonna get one earlier on, never heard about it (fitment, strength...) I would not recomend getting it- if you like the kit buy the real thing... If it cost too much right now, then dont buy it right now and save up.
