I know a lotta people hate these kinda threads but... oh well:axe:

Alright im torn between the Zeal style sideskirts which I already have and these new sideskirts from a company called PACS.
I already have a version select 1 front bumper and a nismo style rear bumper and stock spoiler now im trying to decide if the zeal would look better or the PACS sides would look better. After I get the kit installed I will be painting the car black.

Heres a pic of the nismo rear and zeal sides... this pic is basically what made me want this combo

I'd say Zeal, no reason. Just I think it looks neato. (too many angled pics of it though :/)

im kinda diggin the eclipse style bumper too heh.... not over the VS stuff though.

I went ahead and took out that front shot and added a side shot of the zeal

whichever one you pick, its going to look like retarded crap since you are using 3 different types of body kit. the shine auto kit looks better, but since you are mix and matching the zeal will look better in your situation.

What an ignorant statement:blah:

Just because its not all one brand it looks like crap?:hahano:

um, yes.

ignorant? if you think cars with 3 different heigth body panels look cool, then i guess it might be ignorant

Mismatched Kits are fucking gay.



that is all.

I agree MOST kits just dont look good mixed but there are a few that do. You just gotta get body parts that are the same height and match lines/curves.

You babies just think if its not all 1 brand/kit then its shit.... thats all you care about though is the brand.
damn stubborn texans:hammer:

I would go with the Zeal...the PACS looks kinda "bowed" in the middle from the angle in that pic...

Mix and Match = Fail in most cases, this one included personally.

p.s. Don't ask for opinions if you only want positive answers. Zilvia, if nothing else, is full of brutally honest individuals. Sometimes they can get carried away with expressing their opinion, but they are honest.

This is not a thread about "can mixed kits look good"
this is about which of those two sideskirts up top looks better in your opinion with the front and rear I have.
I would have loved to buy a full body kit but I just dont like any of the ones available. The rears on all of them look like crap and the sides are usually too low.
Since I am mixing kits I obviously dont want to hear about how they dont look good... if I thought mixing kits was stupid I wouldnt do it and you bandwagoners are not going to change my mind....
saying a kit cant look good unless its all made by one company is just closed minded and stupid imo.
I bet tons of car guys cant even tell if a kit is mixed on a car they are not familiar with as long as the pieces match

... oh and it looks like im gonna keep the zeal!!! Ill post pics of my car when its painted

I'd Go With The Pacs I Don't Care For The Others

az_240, you ask for an opinion. Most of them think mixed kits suck. Just like what ThatGuy said...Zilvia is honest!

Go with PAC, it still won't look good imo. But it's better than the first one.

I know you're asking for opinions, but in the end, isn't it what you like that matters?

you aren't building a show car or anything right? So what is the point really, of asking zilvia? It's like asking us what clothes you should wear to work, school, etc.

Just trying to help out...good luck man.

My suggestion... go JDM.... It looks the best of all.

pacs would go better w/ the version select 1 front

05-31-2006, 05:24 PM
honestly i would go with ZEAL, it looks more flowy than the pacs

az_240
05-31-2006, 05:48 PM
Ive already decided to just keep the zeal sides.
At first I was going to order the PACS sides and sell the zeal but this thread made me realize the zeal really would look better.
Thanks for all your opinions!

mix and match looks like crap

i hate both those sides. ugly and blah. vents or those weird shapes
keep it simple. keepit clean. keep one kit.

i have a kouki too, not everyone's taste but i sure as hell wasnt stupid enough to mix kits. one kit will ALWAYS flow and match better. mixing might come close but wont be the same.

The PACS sides look nicest with the nismo rear, but none of them look quite right. Stay with one kit.

IMO ive always thought ur car looked like shit so im gonna have to disregard what you have to say about body kits;) looks like a nice track whore though

Like I said earlier though... I just dont like the complete kits that are out for kouki's and believe me I have spent a TON of time looking at all kinds of different koukis.

This kit im putting together isnt clean and simple? your car is anything but that


Its kinda funny cuz I posted just about the same thread (1 or 2 different pics) on a different car forum and EVERYONE said to go with the zeal sides... they seemed to like what im going with and seemed to not care about the kit being mixed. Direct quote "lol who cares if u're mixing kits? If it looks better then i dont see what the problem is"

Maybe zilvia just isnt the place for this type of discussion... buncha hard heads


Also one more thing.... You guys say stick with one kit but have you guys seen the zeal kit. I mean cmon that front and rear are just:barf: The sides are still sexy imo...Lots of kits are like that

then dont fucking post it on here. just because we dont all jerk you off for wanting to run some 50 dollar ebay zeal skirts dont start crying and going for personal attacks

yeah my car is a track whore thats it. no shows..wel magazines soon i guess. sponsors sponsors sigh.. have to sell out

vertex=clean and simple. find me a problem w/ that kit. its by far most OE ish and stylish thats why ist always compied

people who say go with Zeal are on forums like NICO and stuff. and ive been there, its a joke.

zilvia isnt the place? for once people have GOOD Taste and you knock it? oh come on.


zeal sides rock a nice non functional fake front vent on the front of the side skirt. that=taste and quality
paint on some side vents on the 1/4 panel and your set for Fast and Furious 3! yeah!

IMO, the zeal sides remind me of the nice S15 Aero sides. I don't care for that front vent either though.

gettin a lil hostile huh... Ive seen some pics of your car also and I cant believe how retarded it looks with that paint... not to mention its a zenki hahaha

I actually posted the thread on here first then realized some of you guys are just hardheaded. so went elsewhere.

I will agree though dousan Vertex/VS1/Bmagic are probably the best kits for koukis... but a lot of people go that route and they are a lil too low for me. And I still like the nismo rear better

I dont care for that weird shape either but with black its not even that noticable. I was thinking of somehow fabbing that thing off but dont want it to look more retarded heh... it doesnt even look THAT bad. Just something different. To be honest that is actually the reason why I wanted to go with the PACS when I first saw them

Stay on nico and 240sxforums you'll do a lot better there

Zilvia isn't the place to get comments or opinions on how your car is GONNA look. You show people the work you've done, we're all doubters and haters, action speaks louder than words. Display your mind here, don't talk about it.

As for mismatch, it's fucking ugly. That's why I sold all my old aero, now I have none. :(
