A more refined version would be nice, but this kit looks like something fresh/new that there is some pent up demand for I'm betting....

Im a firm believer in the no body kits look, but for some reason, I like how "european super car" this looks. Dunno why though.

You guys act like this is some kind of veilside rice kit or something.

Its pretty smooth and does look like a euro super car... And guess what, the sc does have a lot of euro influence. Its pretty cool, vip style, would def turn heads. But i wouldnt run it, at the end of the day its a poser car. Pretending to be an aston or a maserati when its not.

The SC was designed by some company in California, meant for the US crowd. I don't know too much about having any euro influence.
Veilside is not rice, it's just overdone. Veilside fitment is great and is incredibly expensive.

I think it replciates Aston Martin more than anything.

Default second look

I looked at this kit again and I agree with most of you guys. The front looks OK but the back looks like ***. I wonder if this kit would look better if the car had some wheels that went with the kit a little better? and no front plate like this.

I noticed that too.. and if you go to the website it shows a pic of the sides with a little fender flare in the rear, im guessing they're optional.. im not feeling the kit over all..tho i do like those sides with the vent. reminds me of the new viper. it is different and i would like to see it in person with a good set of rims and maybe in a different color, something that would complament it better maybe black or white.

The thing that really makes the Sc is the way the front end rounds off from top to bottom. It's sleek and sexy. This kit comes straight out and blocks off and I bet that a true side shot rather than this 3/4 shot would render this kit fugly.

Looks like it comes out and stub noses.

I love the way the SC's nose rounds off, it makes the car IMO.

am i the only one that has a problem with not having tail lights and or turn signals??

i think its a good looking kit, but the rear would have to be taken down to under the tail lights... not in the middle. the diffuser looks fine. other than that, its not bad.

not my style, but it doesnt look bad. ill try to get a nice photoshop of what im talking about.


looks like an Aston Martin to me...

I actually like the rear better than the front. I agree with OLT that the rounded front end really does make the SC very sexy. That and copying the aston martin grill and slapping it on ANY other car is well.... rice
