response to my closed thread

[chmercer]

why did you close my thread. I would consider that question a reasonable one for the General Chat section. Yes as a matter of fact i have tried google, and have searched various forums. As i said, i have found it on importfan but they do not sell the sideskirts. They sell it on ebay as well but i would prefer to buy it from a shop.

do it right or dont do it at all? :wtf: its a body kit dude. as long as i get it painted and dont duct tape it on how can i do it wrong. For your information, I am not some ricer punk. I have a few dents in my quarter panel that a sideskirt would cover up, this is much cheaper than getting bodywork done. If i just put on sideskirts it would look silly, and i found out that this kit can be had for around 3-500, so i figured i would get the whole kit so that it wouldnt look retarded and not line up with the bumpers. I wont bore you with a list of my car mods but they are all suspension/engine. im sorry i dont know a bunch about body kits :rolleyes: if you want to ask me about tire physics or somthing then go ahead. and just because i have a low post count on your forum dosent mean i dont know anything. have a little more courtesy.

edit - if anyone could please answer my original question (where to find a nismo / 270R / etc. style body kit for an s14 besides ebay, please tell me. :))

importfan body kits sucks. save up for a better body kit than a importfan one. importfan body kits dont fit on right, they require work to make it fit right, sometimes it wont fit at all! just save for something better.

Not sure why your post was closed. Sorry. Search should have brought back something... probly saying there is not Nismo style kit.

I think the Nismo style kits are a Ebay item. Like everyone is saying... save your money for something quality.

bah quit whining and pipe down... we all know low buck body parts are crap, doesnt matter if its an aftermarket fender or an aftermarket body kit.. fitment is ALWAYS the most important factor in making your car look good.

now, not that I care what you do with your time and money.. but if you are trying to get rid of a dent, have you considered paintless dent removal? it works, its not too expensive, and its fairly easy.. i had it done on my car and it looks MUCH better now. no body shop, quite easy.

thankyou for the reccomendation on paintless dent removal but this is a pretty big one heh. i have been able to get to the back of the dent and tap out a good portion of it, but part of the rail part at the bottom of the car is crunched in and basically the only way for me to fix it would be to cut it out and weld in a new panel, or a whole lot of bondo.

I know you get what you pay for, i know its probably not going to fit etc. etc but if anyone knows where i can find this, please tell me.

If you did try google, you should have brought up GTP, VIS, Erebuni, Wings West (same company, different sites), ect. There are a thousand kit copiers out there, as well as ebay. If you have a problem with the way I did something, PM me. I closed the thread because you'll only get a little flame from me (gotta be upstanding, yadda yadda, moderator, yadda yadda, role model) and I figured I'd save you from much worse. You'd have gotten 30 posts flaming you and most saying "Use the search button" because, alas, this has been covered countless times, and you'd get manufacturer names, impressions and thoughts, quality and fitment opinions.

I know for sure that VIS made a copy of the Nismo 270R bodykit. Before you guys start flaming me for suggesting VIS, sometime their stuffs has good fitment and sometime pure crap. As for the original poster of this thred, I'm going to test fit some VIS (270R copy) sideskirts, and rear bumper in a couple weeks, I'll let you know how good or bad it is.
