Here is a pic of AIT's finished body kit. John didn't tell me exactly how many pieces the kit is, but it looks like 5.



A GTR Front Bumper is coming soon.

The trunk looks clean with that built in stillen spoiler look. But the rest just doesnt look right to me. I agree it seems like a mazda theme on the front end.

+1 That's probably the only part of this kit I would buy actually. Then I don't have to worry about people trying to lift up on my Stillen spoiler when trying to open up the trunk anymore.<IDIOTS.

I like it so far. The new trunk lid looks great. I'll spare my judgment on the front until I see it painted.

the trunk one looks AWESOME the front looks like a merc CLS, the grille is awesome, and the lower part is cool. I think this kit is the BEST (non agressive like stillen) ONE !



I think I'm going to buy the trunk and the front and sides from the RAZI one, should look ubber clean

yeah the trunk looks really nice but if you look at it close, it looks like the back end of a Volvo. I like the front end but a lot of people want to get rid of the Nissan Burger. Why did they incorporate that into the grille is beyond me The side looks good though...

Holy smokes!!! FINALLY!! Someone listened and made a front bumper with a replacement grille that actually looks good!! Man, now I'm upset I bought the Stillen Front lip, cuz I doubt I can attack it to this front bumper which I think I'm going to have to save up and get....

I'm curious what this GTR front bumper is like too... gonna have to wait to see what that looks like before making my decision.

I like the trunk idea

front bumper looks clean, I like that it has a spot for the fogs

I like the sides, but not as much as the Stillen or Fox Marketing ones

Dont see much difference with the rear except that the black part is gone.

without seeing it painted, I give it a solid 7.0(paint it and that will probably go up)

Best new kit ive seen yet, subtle changes but keeps the sexy lines of the car(unlike the Razzi kit)

Psst. Can somebody please Photoshop it painted?

I would like the front bumper if the grill part was just.... meshed? I don't know why but the horizontal bar just doesn't do it for me. It either reminds me of the last Honda Civic theme, or the 4th gen Maxima bar theme.... neither of which goes with the car.

I agree with everything you said, it's a good clean kit; front bumper looks good (removal of the mustach), rear bumper looks good and I like what they did with the trunk. I was even thinking the same thing that the Stillen or Fox Marketing sides would look good with this kit. This IMO is the best looking kit I've seen for or cars, but too bad it's fiberglass. for a daily driven you can probably get away with a fiberglass rear bumper and sides, but you better plan in your budget to have to replace your front bumper about once a year or so. Man I wished this was a Polyurthene(spl) kit.

It may be fiberglass but its mixed with something else and it wont chip and break as easily as other fiberglass kits.

Maybe true, but I bet it's still a material more suitable for a show car than an everyday driver.
