just saw this avail..... anyone has any thoughts?

 

Looks like a copy of the AC Schintzer kit.

Victor

 

Front and sides aren't too bad, the rear is kind of busy ...

 

Here is the AC kit



for comparison

 

Busy lines that don't relate to the Mini or each other...like the perverbial 20# ***** in a 10# bag :impatient

 

SO, typical veilside then?

 

the side skirts are fine, maybe the front bumper would look better with an aero grille?

 

veilside has always been the type of company that focus on being unique... i guess its defenitely not to everyone's tastes... but for me, this is defenitely the best veilside bodykit ive ever seen... even if it costs 9 grand

 

The veilside is UGLY....none of the styling lines up and its WAY too busy. Being unique is one thing....but being unable to make your bodykit flow with the rest of the car is just a lack of effort.


No

 

Well...if you guys have nine grand to blow...be patient and wait for me to come up with something even I would put on...

 

For $9K I will sell you my body kit. It may need a little moding but it will look top shelf.

 

Busy is an excellent description.

 

Doesnt the front look like the GP's kit? I kinda like it.....sorry! lol

 

Yes...with my eyes closed...it does kinda look like a Lamborgini...or maybe my VW Vanagon...or Eva Langoria...uh...nevermind......

 

I agree.

I also agree with others that the rear bumper is too over the top.

 

Rice!!!

 

On the money. But what else would you expect from veilside? I'm not saying all their stuff is rice, but they do bodykits mainly for JPN cars, I guess they're trying to add some of that "flavor" to the MINI....albeit poorly but an attempt.

 

The front of that MINI could look good if you make some small changes, like the fog area, make them like the aerofront and it'd be nice, right now it's too much going on. And they should have kept the oem lower grill, that'd be nice. Rear is awful.

 

Not the nicest kit ever made but surely it still looks better than the Zeemax and another French kit? It's got potential though.

Speaking of Japanese MINI kits:



Pretty subtle to me.

 

^^
I've seen that one before, it's hawt. Stupid Japanese, they have all the nice stuff. Also look up Garbino. :drool:

 

umm what else would you expect from a BODYKIT for that matter. The definition of "rice" is that its for looks and not performance. C-west is one of the few tuner companies that even thinks about aerodynamics when it comes to bodykits. By definition every MINI boykit is "rice"

 

just for the record... (no one has accused me of it yet), that i am not a fan of it.. just posting it as it is the first time ive seen it...

personally.. i'd love that gabrino kit... soooooooo sweet... but i can settle for a nice Esquiss kit.. if only i can source one here, and win enough money to get it painted...

 

if you look there are a few garbino importers in america mostly euro-tuners

 

Garbino

 

Anyone seen this kit?

La Vacca




I am really liking this one. The front may be a bit low around normal roads though.
