It's not too bad, I just think kits completely **** up the flow of the car. Only upside I really see to the Cwest kit is the big mouth... I'm not hating... Just observing.
I felt the same way bro. But the only thing I can say in defense...is that sometimes it looks neat to have one solid straight line flowing throughout the bottom of the car, counter balancing the curvey top (meaning it somehow works even though it sounds like it shouldn't).



Check out the pic below. If you ignore the stickers it looks pretty neat to have somewhat "Boxy" and squared off lines on the bottom of the rex...

I believe it's C-West.



Picture from Rx7Trix



My 2 problems with this kit is the rear valence...the way it just...ENDS...coming around the bend so that the rearview looks kinda funky.



Also..the way it splits up the rear scoop into squared off sectors (In front of the rear wheel)....I'd love to simply have the lower part of the sideskirt to just solidify the line....

maybe the rear bumper is cwest but the skirts on the cwest kit have those 2 slits in the rear part that doesnt (i like it without the slits) and i dont think its the cwest front end either and thats what i was lookin for



maybe the new drft front end?

I think it might be bomex, but it does something different with the straight line accross the bottom.



I remember reading that this guy "Modified" the c-west kit...or maybe I am making that up (Can't remember....seirously).

I grew up in CO, in a very hispanic dominated region. I simply made the observation that many of them like wings and body kits on their pickups and SUVs. Is that a ok w/ you?
