Default Mix and Match body kit

Thoughts and comments on what I'm thinking about doing:

Cervini's C-Series Front bumper kit - https://cervinis.com/product.aspx?car=1&id=1160#9023

and in the rear the 3dCARBON boy racer body kit

The side skirts can be from the boy racer too.

Think that would look good and will work together?!

Have you tested this theory on www.ponybuilder.com yet?

That should tell you if it will work well together or not.

ponybuilder.com only lets you put on a complete body it.. it doesnt let you do the front end of one brand and the back end of another... plus they dont have cervini's kit on there

D'oh! Yes, Pony Bulder needs to be updated, if not updated monthly to keep up.

Good luck!

I asked kinda the same question. I wanted to know how it would work if I just put on the rear Boy Racer bumper for now (and thats all) and maybe the rest later. A guy told me that the rear bumper would only look right with the rest of the Boy Racer kit becuase of the fender flares. I asked what the difference in the flares already on the body and on the BR bumper, but I havent really gotten a reply yet. I would try to find some specs. on both kits to possibly see if it sounds good mathematically at least haha. I'm not sure though. I can definitely understand how you would want to know if one end will "outwiegh" or stupify the other end though. Check out my post in this forum. It's titled "BOY RACER bumper"

Yo. Mixing and matching kit parts can make for an original look, but might clash. Have to be careful and tasteful when choosing parts. Boy Racer kit is wide-body-ish with the fender flares. It won't look good without the entire kit (bumpers, skirts, flares) installed.

In this picture, notice the rear right fender flare. It lays over the stocks current fender flare, extending 3/4". The bumper adjusts for this, and would stick out 3/4" beyond the fenders without the flares.

Doesn't look bad, both front fascias are almost identical in general shape as it was easy to chop it.

Here you go!

[edit] I didn't know what color your car was at the moment as cardomain was down as of 1:22AM this night.. so I guessed a blue GT.

..and I realize the rims are different, I had to switch trims so that the certain options were available.

Alright, here's something a little more accurate. Too bad they don't allow you to mix and match at ponybuilder, but it's always fun doing a little chopping.
